Lower-case the image URL's host and require a signature for a port (closes #246)

With cdn.example.com allowlisted, CDN.Example.com and
cdn.example.com:8443 passed the allowlist too, and each spelling had its
own cache entries and its own connections under
upstream_connections_per_host. The image URL parser now lower-cases the
host and refuses one holding "@" with ErrInvalidHost (400).
ValidateRequest counts a host followed by ":", with or without a port,
as not allowlisted, so it needs a signature. That check is not in
allowlist.IsAllowed, which also matches referer_blocklist. A URL is now
signed over the lower-cased host; README.md says so.

-  disk or, where `/tmp` is a tmpfs, in memory, until the image is done. For a
-  GIF, WebP, AVIF or JPEG XL source the decoded pixels are held in memory as

-  and a container with no CPU limit sees every CPU of the host, so on a 48-CPU
-  host pixa processed 48 images at once, each of which can take about 4.2 GiB.
-  `config.DefaultMaxConcurrentProcessing` gives the default to the config and to
-  `imageprocessor.New`; `PIXA_MAX_CONCURRENT_PROCESSING` still overrides it.
-  "Running under upaas" in `README.md` gives the worst-case memory, measured,
-  and tells the operator to set `PIXA_MAX_CONCURRENT_PROCESSING` and
-  `PIXA_UPSTREAM_CONNECTIONS` to fit the container's memory. It also gives the
-  file libvips writes to `/tmp` for each large source, up to 1 GiB, measured,
-  which is outside `/var/lib/pixa` and `cache_max_bytes` and is memory where
-  `/tmp` is a tmpfs.
-- 2026-10-15 logging out ends every login session (closes #256): a login session
-  was a cookie with nothing kept on the server, so `/logout` removed it from one
-  browser and a copy of it kept working for its 30 days. Every login is made
-  with the one signing key, so logging out now ends them all: the session
-  manager keeps a random value, made with `crypto/rand` when the new `logout`
-  table has none and replaced by each logout, saves it there so that it outlasts
-  a restart, puts the value at login in each session, and refuses a session
-  carrying another value. The check for a logout compares no time, so a login
-  after a logout works whatever the host's clock does; a session's 30 days are
-  still checked against the clock. Losing the state directory ends every login
-  session, and no logout can make an ended one work again. Logging out is now
-  `POST /logout` from a form on the generator page, behind the CSRF check the
-  other forms have, so a link or image elsewhere on the same site cannot end the
-  sessions. A logout without a valid login session ends none and only removes
-  the cookie, as anyone can take a CSRF token from the login page. A logout that
-  cannot be saved answers 500. `session.NewManager`, which the tests use, keeps
-  the value in memory only; pixad uses `session.NewManagerWithDatabase`.
-- 2026-10-15 a cached file left empty or partial is no longer served, or fetched
-  again on every request (closes #252). Source and transformed image files, and
-  each transformed image's `.meta` file, are synced to disk before they are
-  renamed into place, and their directory after; the `.meta` file is written
-  before the image, and a failed directory sync removes the renamed file. The
-  reconciliation pass, at startup and every five minutes, removes a cached
-  source or transformed image whose file is empty, or not the size the database
-  records for it, with its rows and a warning naming the file, so the next
-  request fetches the source or converts the image again; requests compare no
-  sizes. Storing a source over a file of another size replaces that file. A
-  source that fails to decode is not removed for that alone: a damaged upstream
-  image would then be fetched on every request.
-- 2026-10-15 a transcode stops once its request's `downstream_timeout` has
-  ended, unless it has begun encoding (closes #243): the image processor looked
-  at its context only while it waited for a processing slot, so an image was
-  decoded and encoded, holding the slot, however long after its request's
-  deadline that took. `Process` now returns the context's error, and gives the
-  slot back, when the context has ended by the time it has the slot or before it
-  encodes. A request that waited for a shared transcode stopped at the first
-  request's deadline is answered 503 `server busy, try again later`, not 500,
-  though its own `downstream_timeout` may not have ended. govips gives pixa no
-  way to stop libvips once an encode has begun, so that encode keeps its slot
-  until it finishes; the limit of 8192 on each side of the source and of the
-  output bounds how long that takes. With one libvips thread, 8192x8192 random
-  pixels take up to about 1 second to encode as JPEG, 15 as PNG, 16 as GIF, 63
-  as WebP, 110 as AVIF and 96 as JPEG XL, the last three with an alpha channel,
-  plus up to about 11 seconds to decode the source; `README.md` gives these
-  times and no longer says the work stops when `downstream_timeout` ends. The
-  settings of the WebP, AVIF and JPEG XL encoders, which can hold a slot past
-  the default `downstream_timeout` of 60 seconds, are unchanged.
-- 2026-10-15 "Running under upaas" in `README.md` tells the operator to set
-  `PIXA_CACHE_MAX_BYTES` (closes #251): it listed the variable as optional, but
-  under upaas the volume is a directory on the host's filesystem. The default,
-  75% of the sum of that filesystem's free space and what the cache holds, and
-  at least 500 MiB, let one pixa take three quarters or more of the space the
-  host and every other app had left, and all of it when that was 500 MiB or
-  less. The section now says so. The default is unchanged.
-- 2026-10-15 the request metrics are labelled by route, not by path (closes
-  #254): their `handler` label was each request's path, so every new path, a 404
-  or an encrypted URL, added series to the Prometheus registry that were never
-  removed, and `/metrics` listed every encrypted URL's token. The label is now
-  the pattern of the chi route the request matches, such as `/v1/image/*`, or
-  `unmatched` for a request that matches none: one the router answers 404 or
-  405, or a CORS preflight. The metrics library takes the label before the
-  request is routed, so the metrics middleware asks the router which route
-  matches.
-- 2026-10-15 expired negative cache rows are removed on a schedule (closes
-  #244): the row of a failed fetch, which makes pixa answer 502 for that source
-  URL for 5 minutes, was deleted only when the same URL was requested again
-  after that, so a client asking for a new missing path each time added rows
-  that stayed for good. The eviction goroutine now calls `CleanExpired` at
-  startup and on each periodic tick, every 5 minutes in pixad, so a row stays at
-  most about 10 minutes. `CleanExpired` deletes at most 1000 rows per statement,
-  so a request waits behind 1000 deletions at most, however many rows have
-  expired. The goroutine runs with the disk cache disabled
-  (`cache_max_bytes: 0`) too, where it does nothing else, as the negative cache
-  is used either way.
-- 2026-10-15 a cached variant is served while its source URL is in the negative
-  cache (closes #245): `Get` checked the negative cache before the variant
-  cache, so once a fetch of the source failed, as one does when another variant
-  misses after the source was evicted and the upstream is down, every variant of
-  that source answered 502 for 5 minutes, also one on disk or one that could be
-  made from the cached source. The negative cache is now checked only just
-  before a fetch from the upstream, so a cached variant is served and a variant
-  not in the cache is made from the cached source when there is one. `README.md`
