Subject: [PATCH] Aesel 0.8.6: the web build finds aesel/ again, and hosted
 billing ships

The phone/web bundle resolved its /easel/ URL prefix onto the old easel/
folder; it now maps to aesel/. Pro-only modules the hosted engine now
imports (workspace tools, the MCP client) get browser stubs, since the
phone never runs them. Version bump so installed copies pick up the
aesthetic provider's open models and braincell billing.
