matrix: drop the per-hive appservice and its unused token
Every hive's homeserver loaded a per-hive `hyperhive` appservice
registration, and the swarm minted and delivered an as_token for it
through bao. No client presented that token: swarm-controller creates
every `@hive-<hive>` sender and every agent account with the swarm
appservice token (hive_sender.rs, agent_token.rs), and no Rust code read
the per-hive one.
Removed, with everything that existed only to serve it:
- hive-matrix.nix: the `hyperhive` registration, its activation-time
render, the host bind mount of /var/lib/hyperhive/matrix-appservice,
its LoadCredential entry, and the internal options
`deploy.matrix.appserviceTokenFile` / `appserviceRegistrationScript`.
tuwunel now loads only the swarm registration.
- glue-matrix-bao-token.nix and its `swarm-bao-matrix-token` unit.
- glue-bao-tls.nix: the matrix-token leaf and its defaults.
- swarm-bao.nix: the `swarm-matrix-token-<hive>` roles and policies
(`swarm-bao-matrix-token-policy`), and the options
`deploy.bao.matrixTokenClient{Cert,Key}File` and
`matrixTokenCommonNamePrefix`, now mkRemovedOptionModule.
- swarm-secret-publisher.nix: the per-hive token mint and its state dir.
- swarm.nix: the reserved `<matrixTokenCommonNamePrefix>-<hive>` CN.
- swarm-secret-client: `matrix::appservice_token_path`.
The swarm registration (swarm-matrix-ctl, swarm-controller) is untouched.
Comments and docs that pointed at the removed glue file now point at
glue-queue-agent-credential.nix, which has the same reader shape.

creation doesn't depend on registration being open to anyone who learns

a token.
|
||||
|
||||
1. **System activation** mints a 32-byte random hex appservice token (64
|
||||
chars) at `/var/lib/hyperhive/matrix-appservice-token` and its
|
||||
spec-required `hs_token` sibling, mode `0600 root:root`, then renders
|
||||
the registration to
|
||||
`/var/lib/hyperhive/matrix-appservice/hyperhive.yaml` (also `0600`).
|
||||
The script mints the tokens only when missing; the registration is
|
||||
re-rendered every time, because the token file can be overwritten in
|
||||
place by the swarm secret store and a registration naming a stale
|
||||
token authenticates nobody. Runs at activation time, before any
|
||||
container start, because the directory is bind-mounted and
|
||||
nixos-container refuses to start when a bind source is missing.
|
||||
2. **Read-only bind-mount** maps that directory into the tuwunel
|
||||
container at the same path.
|
||||
3. **systemd `LoadCredential=`** inside the container copies the
|
||||
registration into
|

`/run/credentials/tuwunel.service/hyperhive-appservice.yaml`, owned by

tuwunel's dynamic user with mode `0400`, at service start. The host

1. **`swarm-matrix-ctl appservice render`**, inside the `hive-matrix`
|
||||
container and before tuwunel starts, mints the registration's
|
||||
`as_token` and its spec-required `hs_token` when they're missing, and
|
||||
renders the registration to
|
||||
`/var/lib/swarm-matrix-appservice/swarm.yaml` (mode `0600 root:root`).
|

2. **systemd `LoadCredential=`** copies the registration into
|
||||
`/run/credentials/tuwunel.service/swarm-appservice.yaml`, owned by
|
||||
tuwunel's dynamic user with mode `0400`, at service start. The source
|
||||
file stays `root:root 0600` — no `chown :tuwunel` / `chmod 0640` /
|
||||
GID-pin gymnastics required. Keeps `DynamicUser = true` +
|
||||
`PrivateUsers = true` intact.
|
||||
4. tuwunel's `appservice_dir` points at the credentials directory, not at
|
||||
the bind-mount path. It reads only `.yaml`/`.yml` entries from there,
|
||||
so the sibling credentials are invisible to it. The `.yaml` suffix on
|
||||
the credential id is what makes this work.
|
||||
5. **hive-c0re** doesn't read the appservice token and creates no
|
||||
account. Its `@hive-<hive>:` token comes from the swarm store (below).
|
||||
6. **Agents' accounts aren't this hive's.** `swarm-controller` creates each
|
||||
one with the swarm's own appservice token (next section), stores its
|
||||
token at `swarm/agents/<agent>/matrix/main`, and the agent's
|
||||
`hive-matrix-daemon` reads it from there as the agent itself.

5. **`swarm-controller` creates every account**: each agent's, with its
