nix(gateway): self-signed TLS as the implicit default, deprecate the toggle

Browse source 
Make self-signed TLS the gateway's default whenever no external TLS source
is configured, and deprecate the explicit selfSignedTls toggle. Self-signed
is now derived as `tls.certDir == null && !tls.acme.enable`, so an operator
selects a TLS mode by setting tls.certDir or tls.acme — or neither, for the
self-signed default. There is no http-only mode: matrix discovery hardcodes
https, so the gateway always terminates TLS.

The selfSignedTls option is kept as a deprecated no-op (warns when set to
false) so existing configs still eval. The two selfSignedTls mutual-
exclusion assertions and the HSTS-requires-TLS assertion are dropped — they
are impossible or vacuous now that self-signed is the floor. The hive-tls
module and the forge ROOT_URL scheme consume the derived value: the gateway
always terminates TLS, so behind the gateway the forge is always advertised
over https.

Updates docs/gateway.md (TLS-modes table, self-signed section, the removed
http-only section, firewall + discovery notes). Eval-proven: default →
self-signed (hive CA active, https ROOT_URL); tls.certDir → CA inactive;
selfSignedTls=false → deprecation warning fires.

## TLS modes ## TLS modes
Four modes: The gateway always terminates TLS — self-signed is the implicit floor when
nothing else is configured, so there is no http-only mode. Three modes,
selected by which (if any) external TLS source is set:

|---|---|---|---| |---|---|---|---|
| self-signed (default) | `selfSignedTls = true` | host hive-CA signs a gateway leaf (RSA-4096) | `https` | | self-signed (default) | neither `tls.certDir` nor `tls.acme` set | host hive-CA signs a gateway leaf (RSA-4096) | `https` |
| ACME (Let's Encrypt) | `selfSignedTls = false` + `tls.acme.enable = true` | nginx inside container via HTTP-01 | `https` | | ACME (Let's Encrypt) | `tls.acme.enable = true` | nginx inside container via HTTP-01 | `https` |
| operator cert | `selfSignedTls = false` + `tls.certDir` set | bind-mounted from host | `https` | | operator cert | `tls.certDir` set | bind-mounted from host | `https` |
| http-only | `selfSignedTls = false`, no `tls.certDir`, no `tls.acme` | none | `http` |
The `gateway.selfSignedTls` option is **deprecated and ignored** — self-signed
is now derived from the absence of `tls.certDir` / `tls.acme`. Setting it to
`false` (which used to select http-only or force an external cert) warns and
has no effect; use `tls.certDir` / `tls.acme` to override the default.

### HTTP-only (`selfSignedTls = false`, no `tls.certDir`) ### Fronting with an external TLS terminator
For operators who front the gateway with an external TLS terminator (caddy, traefik, nginx + ACME on the host). The gateway listens on `port` (default 80) only. `.well-known/matrix` responses use `http://`, which breaks matrix-dart-sdk discovery — acceptable when matrix GUI is off or the external proxy handles the `.well-known` redirect. There is no http-only mode: the gateway always terminates TLS (self-signed
floor). Two paths for an operator who wants their own TLS terminator:
**`.well-known/matrix/{client,server}` scheme**: `https` when TLS is active (either mode), `http` when http-only. The scheme must match what clients see at the external hostname. - give the gateway the real cert via `tls.certDir` (or `tls.acme`) so it
serves proper TLS directly — no separate proxy needed; or
- front it over a **unix socket** rather than a plain-http TCP port (the
intended direction for "bring your own proxy" — the gateway is not meant
to expose an unencrypted TCP upstream).
**`.well-known/matrix/{client,server}` scheme** is always `https` now — the
gateway always terminates TLS, so discovery responses always advertise https.
