Pull request overview
This PR updates the Basecamp 5 “Everything” API documentation to explicitly clarify that there is no unfiltered collection API for to-dos/cards/tasks, and that the existing filtered sub-routes remain the canonical API JSON endpoints, despite web UI route changes.

Changes:
- Updates the “Most collections…” preamble to state there is no
/todos.json,/cards.json, or/tasks.jsoncollection API. - Adds notes under the to-do/card filter sections (and overdue sections) clarifying the web UI pages were removed while API endpoints remain canonical.

- Pronoun mismatch: this sentence starts with "These endpoints" (plural) but later says "shows this" (singular).
These endpoints are preserved as the canonical API paths; the standalone
all-cards web page was removed — the BC5 web app shows this in the combined
`/tasks` report.

The standalone all-to-dos and all-cards web pages are gone; the filtered sub-routes remain as the documented API surface. State the contract plainly: no /todos.json, /cards.json, or /tasks.json collection API, and each to-do/card section notes its endpoints are preserved.
