Keep the UI attached to background jobs across navigation

Jobs already run on the server — leaving the page or closing the tab does
not stop them — but the SPA lost its link to them because the task id
lived in component state. The online detail page now looks up the newest
task for the post: an active one resumes the progress bar and cancel
button, and a finished one shows "your last download for this post
finished — J-xx". The downloads list accepts a post_id filter for that
lookup.

The footer's Active Workers count is also a link to the staff stats
dashboard, which is the global view of running jobs.
