43ae164d8b gateway: dial swarm services by name over verified TLS
Consumers reached authelia at `127.0.0.1:<port>`, which encoded a
co-location nobody agreed to: the gateway and authelia are not required
to share a host, so the literal is a requirement stated only by being
unwriteable any other way. Moving them to the name is the point of the
issue.

But a name over https is only half of "https and auth". nginx's
`proxy_ssl_verify` is OFF by default and there was no `proxy_ssl_*`
anywhere in the tree, so the obvious repoint would have produced an
encrypted, unauthenticated hop -- which works, and keeps working,
against any certificate at all.

Adds `gateway.lib.verifiedProxyTo <name>` next to the rest of the vhost
kit, so the convention has one definition rather than a copy in each
consuming module, and repoints the four call sites through it.

Each directive was checked against a real nginx with the opposite arm
run as a control:

  - the CA *bundle* (root + intermediate) is accepted -- worth checking,
    since `hive-ca-trust.nix` warns off consumers that read only one
    certificate, and nginx is not one of those
  - verification checks the chain: an unrelated CA fails
  - and the HOSTNAME: a wrong `proxy_ssl_name` fails even with a good
    chain. Chain-only would accept any cert this CA ever signed, which
    for an internal CA is every service on the hive
  - with verify off, the wrong CA passes -- so the failures above come
    from verification, not from the connection

Bind addresses are untouched. This changes what consumers dial, not what
anything listens on.

56ab6d26c1 refactor(3202): authelia declares its own vhost and dns name
Moves the authelia vhost out of the gateway's vhosts.nix and its
`address=` rule out of dnsmasq.nix, into swarm-authelia.nix.

Both land inside that module's existing `cfg.enable` guard, which is
the load-bearing part: every hive in a swarm knows `authelia.url`, but
only the host that RUNS the container may claim the name. A client hive
declaring the vhost would answer for a service it does not run, and
publishing the DNS record would point every agent on its bridge at that
wrong answer.

The kit grows a fourth member, `errorPages`, because the vhost aims its
502/503/504 at the gateway's styled sso-unavailable page. Republished
rather than imported per module: a service rendering its own would drift
from the rest of the gateway the first time the theme changed.

d5782965db refactor(3202): the gateway publishes its vhost construction kit
Slice 1 of #3202. The listen set, the per-name TLS attrs and the
security headers move out of vhosts.nix into ./vhost-lib.nix and are
published as `services.hyperhive.gateway.lib` (internal, readOnly).

No behaviour change: vhosts.nix consumes the published value, so the
rendered vhost tree is identical.

The point is the next slice. Today a swarm service's vhost lives in
the gateway because only the gateway knows the port pair, the issuer
for a name, and the header block. Publishing those three is what lets
a service module declare its own vhost without the gateway having to
know that service by name.
