lint: adopt org-standard .golangci.yml and golangci-lint v2.12.2 (closes #14)

The old backend/.golangci.yml declared version "2" but used v1 schema
keys, so under v2 it never validated and its thresholds were inert: the
linter ran at defaults. Replace it verbatim with the org-standard file,
repin the Dockerfile.backend lint stage to golangci-lint v2.12.2, and
assert the config's sha256 as the first step of the backend lint target
so it cannot silently drift again -- a local hash check, no network.

The standard config surfaces findings only in the tests: the repeated
IP literals in middleware_test.go become named constants (goconst) and
its request switches to NewRequestWithContext (noctx). reportbuf.go's
gosec suppression gains a plain justification comment. The rest of the
backend, including the fx-based server lifecycle, is already clean.
TODO.md updated.

 # Completed Steps
 
+- 2026-09-21: shutdown lifecycle correctness. The process now shuts down through
+  fx instead of `os.Exit`, so every component's `OnStop` runs and buffered
+  reports are flushed to disk on `SIGTERM` — previously a full flush window of
+  telemetry was silently lost on every restart. The `http.Server` is now built
+  before its serving goroutine starts, so shutdown can no longer race or
+  nil-deref it; a listen failure exits non-zero via `fx.Shutdowner`; `reportbuf`
+  `OnStop` is idempotent; and `writeTimeout` now exceeds the chi per-request
+  budget so that budget is actually reachable. Dead `startupTime`, `exitCode`,
+  and `cancelFunc` fields were removed
 - 2026-09-21: backend HTTP hardening (issue #19): added `ReadHeaderTimeout` and
   `IdleTimeout` to the server, a `SecurityHeaders` middleware (HSTS, tight CSP,
   frame/sniff/referrer/permissions headers) registered before CORS, and
   trusted-proxy client IP resolution honouring `X-Forwarded-For` / `X-Real-IP`
   only from a `TRUSTED_PROXIES` allowlist (loopback plus RFC1918 by default)
+- 2026-08-10: adopted the org-standard `backend/.golangci.yml` verbatim and
+  moved the pinned golangci-lint from v2.7.2 to v2.12.2 (the `lint` stage of
+  `Dockerfile.backend` now pins the `golangci/golangci-lint:v2.12.2` image by
+  digest); the previous config declared `version: "2"` but used v1 schema keys,
+  so every threshold in it was inert and its green result was meaningless.
+  `backend/Makefile`'s `lint` target now asserts the config's sha256 against the
+  canonical file first, so drift from the org standard fails the build instead
+  of silently degrading to defaults
 - 2026-08-10: every interactive control now meets the 44x44 CSS px minimum tap
   target (`.pin-btn`, `#interval-select`, the debug-log label and, on narrow
   viewports, `#pause-btn`). The pin button's hit area grows via matching
