swarm-logs-auth: rate-limit verification and cache positive verdicts

Any request on logs.<swarm> carrying a well-formed swarm-agent bearer
made swarm-logs-auth do a bao cert login and KV read before it could
refuse, with no cap on the rate.

nginx now applies limit_req (zone swarm_logs_agent_auth, keyed by
client address, 5r/s burst 20 nodelay by default) on the internal
location that forwards to swarm-logs-auth, answering 403 when over,
since auth_request passes through only 401/403 and swarm-logs retries
a 401. The authelia path and the query location carry no limit.

swarm-logs-auth remembers bearers it has granted, keyed by SHA-256 of
the bearer, for --verdict-ttl seconds (deploy.victorialogs.authVerdictTtl,
60 by default), holding at most 4096 and evicting the oldest. Denials
are never remembered. A replaced or deleted queue secret therefore
keeps working at the log store for up to the TTL after its last check.

Closes #5190

| `swarm/controller/swarm-controller/oidc/client` | authelia, at its first boot; `swarm-secret-publish` copies it in | `swarm-controller`, under its own certificate, at start and on refusal | ❌ authelia mints it once. A re-mint is republished by `swarm-secret-publish`'s path unit | ✅ read at start and held in memory; read again when authelia refuses it, at most once per backoff of 5 s doubling to 5 min while the store holds the refused value |
| `swarm/controller/swarm-controller/forge/token` | the forge, inside the `hive-forge` container, once; `swarm-bao-forge-publisher` on the forge's host copies it in under its own certificate, with a write-only grant | `swarm-controller`, under its own certificate, at start | ❌ the forge mints it once and keeps its copy in the container; the publisher writes that copy each time the forge container starts and each time the mint writes the file | ❌ the controller reads it at start, and in the background with backoff until it first finds it; a replaced token reaches it with the next restart |
| `swarm/agents/<agent>/bao-mtls` | the store's agent PKI mount (`deploy.bao.agentPkiMountPath`), which generates the key, at `swarm-controller`'s request at agent creation | `hive-c0re`, under the hive's own certificate, when it writes the agent's container config; then `hive-agent-bao-identity` in the agent container, under the leaf it holds | ✅ `swarm-controller`'s five-minute pass re-issues a live agent's leaf once it's past half its validity (45 of 90 days, read from the certificate itself) | ✅ `hive-agent-bao-identity` re-reads it every 10 minutes and swaps a new leaf into `/run/hive-agent-bao-identity/`, which every store login in the container presents. It reads under the leaf it holds, so it renews only while that leaf is valid |
| `swarm/agents/<agent>/queue` | `swarm-controller`, at agent creation | `hive-agent` in the agent container, under the agent's own certificate, held in memory — the identity it presents to the swarm queue, naming that one agent rather than its hive; `swarm-logs` in the agent container, under the same certificate, on every query, as the bearer it presents at the log store; `swarm-nats-auth` and `swarm-logs-auth`, each under its own certificate, to check a presented secret | ✅ `swarm-controller`'s five-minute pass re-mints a live agent's secret once it's 45 days old by `minted_at` on the stored object; a secret with no `minted_at` gets one stamped, value unchanged. The pass skips agents declared `Destroyed` — declaring an agent destroyed deletes every version of the path instead, the undo of the mint rather than another one | ✅ `hive-agent` reads the path before its first connect and again on every reconnect attempt, so a reconnect after a re-mint presents the new secret. An open connection keeps the secret it connected with; after a revocation the agent keeps retrying under the queue client's backoff. `swarm-logs` reads it on every query and once more after a 401 |
| `swarm/agents/<agent>/forge-token` | `swarm-controller`, at agent creation and in a pass every 5 minutes over every agent with a store identity | the agent container itself, under its own certificate, fetched to `/run/hive-agent-forge-token/token` | ✅ the controller re-mints when the stored token is missing or no longer matches the forge (last eight characters and scopes) | ✅ the agent re-fetches on a 10-minute timer |
| `swarm/agents/<agent>/forge/<label>` | `swarm-controller`, when an operator links an external forge account in the swarm UI | `hive-agent-forge-accounts` in the agent container, under the agent's own certificate, into `<state>/forge-<label>-token` and `forge-<label>.json` | ❌ an operator's token; replaced only by deleting it and linking the label again | ✅ the agent re-fetches on a 2-minute timer |
| `swarm/agents/<agent>/github-token` | `swarm-controller`, when an operator links a GitHub account in the swarm UI | `hive-agent-github-token` in the agent container, under the agent's own certificate, into `<state>/github-token` | ❌ an operator's token; replaced only by deleting it and linking it again | ✅ the agent re-fetches on a 2-minute timer, and `hive-github-notify` re-reads the file on every poll |
| `swarm/hives/<hive>/matrix/sender-token` | `swarm-controller`, with the swarm's appservice token, for every hive in its directory in a five-minute pass | `swarm-controller` under its own certificate, before it decides whether to mint, and hive-c0re's `stored_sender_token()`, under the hive's own certificate | ✅ the controller's pass re-mints when the stored token is missing, unknown to the homeserver, or someone else's | ✅ hive-c0re's matrix sweep reads the store every run and overwrites its token file when the store's token differs |
| `swarm/hives/<hive>/forge/token` | `swarm-controller`, with the forge's admin API, for every hive in its directory in a five-minute pass | `swarm-controller` under its own certificate, before it decides whether to mint, and hive-c0re's `forge::reader_token()`, under the hive's own certificate | ✅ the controller's pass re-mints when the stored token is missing or no longer matches the forge (last eight characters and scopes) | ✅ hive-c0re reads the store on every forge read |
