docs(gateway): update Basic auth section for fixed htpasswd path

Browse source 
Remove stale htpasswdFile option from nix example (option no longer
exists). Update hivectl command examples to drop --file flag (now
optional with standard default). Add description of the fixed path
and how it's exposed inside the container.

Manage users with `hivectl gateway`: The credential store lives at the fixed path
`/var/lib/hyperhive/gateway/gateway.htpasswd` on the host. A tmpfiles
rule pre-creates the file on first boot; no manual path configuration
is required. The file is exposed inside the gateway container at
`/run/hive-state/gateway.htpasswd` via the existing gateway state
bind-mount.
Manage users with `hivectl gateway` (defaults to the standard path — no
`--file` flag needed for the common case):
```sh ```sh
# Add or update a user (prompted for password): # Add or update a user (prompted for password):
hivectl gateway create-user --file /etc/hyperhive/gateway.htpasswd alice --password-stdin hivectl gateway create-user alice --password-stdin
# Add with inline password (visible in shell history — avoid for sensitive creds): # Add with inline password (visible in shell history — avoid for sensitive creds):

hivectl gateway delete-user --file /etc/hyperhive/gateway.htpasswd bob hivectl gateway delete-user bob

`/run/gateway-auth/<filename>`.
