Steps to reproduce
- Login on a server which does not have notes app installed.
Expected behaviour
App should tell the user after earliest possible verification that the app is missing and the login cannot be completed this way.
Actual behaviour
Cryptic 404 error alerts after successful login, arising from the failed synchronization.
Server configuration
Latest Nextcloud Docker image.
Browser
Inapplicable.
Notes
This is important to consider as part of #97.

Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Reproduce login against a Nextcloud server without the Notes app installed, then trace the failed synchronization that produces the cryptic 404 alert. Done means the app detects the missing server app as early as possible, shows a clear message, and does not complete login through this unsupported path.
