build: update golangci-lint to v2.12.2 with canonical config

Replace the commit-pinned golangci-lint install refs in Dockerfile and
script/bootstrap with the v2.12.2 version pin, and replace .golangci.yml
with the canonical v2-schema config (lint settings now live under
linters.settings, so the lll/funlen/cyclop/dupl thresholds are actually
applied).

Fix all findings surfaced by the newly-applied config:

- goconst: introduce shared constants for repeated status, priority,
  and DNS fixture strings in watcher.go and the notify, state, and
  watcher tests
- dupl: consolidate duplicated ntfy/slack HTTP-error tests and
  SendNotification endpoint-error tests behind shared helpers
- lll: wrap long test table entries and comments; shorten one inline
  nolint justification

-## No DNS mocking. Ever.
-
-**DNS is never mocked in this project — not in tests, not anywhere else.**
-No mock resolvers, no fake DNS servers, no stubbed lookups.
-
-dnswatcher's entire purpose is correct behavior against the real DNS.
-Tests exercise real iterative resolution against live nameservers by
-design; a test suite that passes against a mock proves nothing about the
-one thing this program exists to do.
-
-When live tests are flaky, that is a robustness problem, and it gets
-fixed with robustness: retries with backoff, querying multiple
-independent nameservers, longer timeouts — or explicit opt-in gating
-decided by the project owner. Never with mocks.
-
-Contributions that introduce mocked, faked, or stubbed DNS will be
-rejected.

 # Completed Steps
 
-- 2026-08-09: `http.Server` now sets all four socket-level timeouts
+- 2026-08-07: golangci-lint bumped to v2.12.2 (pins in `Dockerfile` and
-  (`ReadTimeout` 15s, `ReadHeaderTimeout` 10s, `WriteTimeout` 75s,
+  `script/bootstrap`), `.golangci.yml` replaced with the canonical v2
-  `IdleTimeout` 120s) as named constants in `internal/server/server.go`,
+  config (settings moved under `linters.settings` so thresholds now
-  closing the slowloris / unreaped-keep-alive exposure required by
+  apply); fixed all resulting `goconst`, `dupl`, and `lll` findings
-  `REPO_POLICIES.md` before 1.0; `WriteTimeout` is deliberately greater
-  than the 60s `chimw.Timeout` handler budget so that budget stays
-  reachable, and tests in `internal/server` pin both the non-zero
-  values and that relationship (#99)
-- 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
-  (owner-authorized; same file is being landed as canonical via prompts
-  PR #24), with settings under `linters.settings` so the
-  lll/funlen/cyclop/dupl thresholds apply; fixed the resulting
-  `goconst`, `dupl`, and `lll` findings; the informational `gomodguard`
-  deprecation warning under this config is accepted
 - 2026-07-07 Adopted scripts-to-rule-them-all: `script/` entrypoints,
   Makefile shims, README Entrypoints section
 - 2026-02-20: iterative DNS resolver implemented; tests made hermetic
