middleware: add security response headers (closes #98)
check / check (push) Successful in 54s

Adds a SecurityHeaders middleware and registers it globally, right after the request ID middleware, so every route gets the headers, including static files, /metrics and error responses.

It sets Strict-Transport-Security (one year, includeSubDomains), a Content-Security-Policy with default-src 'self', no scripts and frame-ancestors 'none', X-Frame-Options DENY, X-Content-Type-Options nosniff, Referrer-Policy no-referrer and a Permissions-Policy that turns every listed feature off.

HSTS is sent on every response, not only over TLS: the service runs behind a TLS-terminating proxy and REPO_POLICIES.md requires the application to send it. Referrer-Policy is stricter than the policy baseline because dashboard URLs can name internal hosts.

- 2026-08-09: security response headers middleware
(`SecurityHeaders()` in `internal/middleware/middleware.go`)
registered globally in `internal/server/routes.go`, so HSTS, CSP,
`X-Frame-Options`, `X-Content-Type-Options`, `Referrer-Policy`, and
`Permissions-Policy` are set on every response including `/s/...` and
`/metrics`; the CSP needs no `unsafe-inline`/`unsafe-eval` because the
dashboard ships no JavaScript and no inline styles; HSTS is emitted
unconditionally per policy (TLS-terminating proxy in front). Remaining
1.0 hardening items — `http.Server` timeouts, request body limits,
rate limiting, CORS scoping — are tracked separately
- 2026-08-07: golangci-lint bumped to v2.12.2 (commit-pinned installs
in `Dockerfile` and `script/bootstrap`); `.golangci.yml` set to the
org-standard v2-schema config used across the org's repos
