feat: include quality and fit in the URL signature (closes #60)

Quality (q) and fit were read after signature validation and folded
into the variant cache key, so one signed URL could be replayed across
100 quality values and 5 fit modes, yielding up to 500 unauthorized
cache entries and libvips transcodes.

The signed data now appends the effective quality and fit:

  host:path:query:width:height:format:expiration:quality:fit

The handler already defaults an omitted q to 85 and fit to cover before
verification, so those effective values are what gets signed; a URL
signed for one quality or fit no longer verifies when replayed with
another. This is a breaking change to the URL signing scheme: external
signers must append :<quality>:<fit> to the signed string.

New known-answer vectors are added in golden_qualityfit_test.go; the
README signature specification is updated. The pre-existing
golden_test.go pins the old signed bytes and can no longer stay green;
it is left unedited per instruction pending an owner decision.
