feat: add Mattermost session auth for browser requests

- Add dual auth path in ServeHTTP: shared secret (daemon) OR Mattermost session (browser)
- Read-only endpoints (GET /sessions, GET /health) accept either auth method
- Write endpoints (POST, PUT, DELETE) still require shared secret
- Browser requests authenticated via Mattermost-User-Id header (auto-injected by MM server)
- Unauthenticated requests now properly rejected with 401

Fixes: Issue #5 Phase 1 - RHS Panel auth fix
