feat(backend): server hardening: timeouts, security headers, trusted-proxy client IP (closes #19)
check / check (push) Failing after 1s

Add ReadHeaderTimeout and IdleTimeout to the http.Server as named constants beside the existing timeouts. Add a SecurityHeaders middleware (HSTS, a JSON-API CSP of default-src 'none'; frame-ancestors 'none', X-Frame-Options DENY, nosniff, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy), registered before CORS so preflight responses carry it. Resolve the client IP from X-Forwarded-For / X-Real-IP only when the direct peer is in the trusted-proxy allowlist (loopback plus RFC1918 by default, configurable via TRUSTED_PROXIES); an untrusted peer's forwarded headers are ignored. Uses net/netip; no new dependency.

`TRUSTED_PROXIES` defaults to `127.0.0.1/32,::1/128,10.0.0.0/8,172.16.0.0/12,192.168.0.0/16`.
The loopback entries cover the reverse proxy that shares the container; the
RFC1918 ranges match `nginx.conf`. A request whose direct peer is outside this
set has its forwarded headers ignored, and the direct peer is logged instead.
