Deleting a highlight or bookmark in the koplugin never reached the
server. SyncAnnotations:push builds its payload from getAnnotations,
which walks only the live ui.annotation.annotations list, so a deleted
note can never appear in a push — the server kept the row and the next
pull resurrected it. The pull direction (server deletions → koplugin)
was already handled by removeDeletedAnnotations (#4119); this is the
missing push direction.
Capture a tombstone at deletion time instead. onAnnotationsModified
detects a removal (negative index_modified, with the deleted item at
items[1]) and records a deletedAt-stamped descriptor in the per-book
sidecar (readest_sync.deleted_notes). push folds those tombstones into
the payload and clears them only once the server accepts them, so a
failed push retries. Extracted buildNoteDescriptor so the deletion path
derives a note's id identically to the push walk.

Pull skipped notes carrying a deleted_at tombstone but never removed the
matching local annotation. A highlight deleted on Readest therefore lingered
in KOReader, and a later push (notably a full sync) re-uploaded it,
resurrecting the note on the server and making it reappear on every device.
Add removeDeletedAnnotations, invoked at the start of the pull callback, to
drop local annotations the server has tombstoned. Tombstones are matched by
stored id, by the hash-derived id for native KOReader highlights, or by
position/page xpointer.

When syncing highlights between Readest and KOReader, the `note` field
was forced to an empty string (`""`) for annotations and bookmarks
without notes. KOReader's native annotations omit the field entirely
when no note exists, so the empty string caused KOReader to treat
every synced highlight as having a (blank) note. Apply the same
omission in both push and pull directions.
