Say that a config file's env: section overrides the environment (closes #128 )

A variable named in the config file's env: section is set while the file loads, so it overrides both the environment the process was started with and the file's own key. README.md and the config.example.yml header said only that a variable wins over the file; they now state this exception where the precedence is given. Model: opus-5-5
Take every setting from PIXA_ variables and PORT (closes #128 )

-## Running under upaas
-
-What the [upaas](https://git.eeqj.de/sneak/upaas) app for pixa needs:
-
- **Port:** pixa listens on container port `8080`.
- **Volume:** container path `/var/lib/pixa`, where pixa keeps its
-  database and cache. upaas bind-mounts the host path it is given and
-  does not create it, so the host directory must exist before the first
-  deploy.
- **Environment variables:**
-    - `PIXA_SIGNING_KEY` (required): secret for signed and encrypted URLs
-      and login, 32+ characters, for example from
-      `openssl rand -base64 32`
-    - `PIXA_ALLOWLIST_HOSTS`: upstream hosts served without a signature,
-      comma-separated
-    - `PIXA_CACHE_MAX_BYTES`: disk cache limit in bytes; `0` disables it;
-      default 75% of free space
-    - the rest are in the table under Configuration below
- **Health check:** the image's `HEALTHCHECK` requests
-  `/.well-known/healthcheck.json`. upaas reads the container's health 60
-  seconds after a deploy and marks the deploy failed unless it is
-  `healthy`. The probe uses the port from `PORT` (default `8080`), so a
-  port changed only in a mounted config file is not seen by it: change
-  the port with `PORT`.
- **First run:** create the host directory. It may be owned by root: the
-  container gives it to its `pixad` user when it starts.

 ## Rationale

 Image-heavy web applications need a fast, caching reverse proxy that

 Images are only fetched from origins using TLS with valid certificates.

-A request whose query string cannot be decoded, or gives any parameter more
-than once, is refused with 400.
-
 - `<format>`: one of `orig`, `png`, `jpeg`, `webp`
 - `<size>`: `orig` or `<width>x<height>` (e.g. `800x600`)

-The login form (`POST /`) is limited to 5 attempts per minute per client
-address, counting an IPv6 client by its /64; an attempt over the limit is
-refused with 429 and a `Retry-After` header. Behind a reverse proxy the client
-address comes from `X-Forwarded-For` only when the proxy's address is in
-`trusted_proxies`; otherwise all users behind the proxy are counted as one
-client. With the default `trusted_proxies` (the RFC 1918 ranges), a client
-with a private address can choose the address it is counted by through its own
-`X-Forwarded-For`, whether it connects directly or through the proxy, because
-its own address is trusted too. Setting `trusted_proxies` to the proxy's own
-address closes this.
-
-### Image Metadata
-
-pixa decodes and re-encodes every image it serves, and removes all metadata from
-the output: EXIF (GPS position, camera make, model and serial number, capture
-time, embedded thumbnail), XMP, IPTC and the ICC colour profile. This cannot be
-turned off.
-
- The `orig` format means the source's own format, not the source's bytes: an
-  `orig` image is re-encoded and stripped like any other.
- An image with an EXIF orientation is turned upright first, so it displays the
-  same without the tag; a requested size applies to the upright image.
- An image with an ICC profile is converted to sRGB first, since clients show an
-  image with no profile as sRGB. Colours outside sRGB, such as the most
-  saturated ones in a Display P3 photo, are clipped.

 # Completed Steps

- 2026-09-28 strip metadata from processed images (closes #82): every output is
-  exported with govips' `StripMetadata`, so it carries no EXIF, XMP, IPTC or ICC
-  profile; the image is first turned upright with `AutoRotate` (before sizes are
-  worked out) and, when it has an ICC profile, converted to sRGB; the `orig`
-  format is re-encoded and stripped like any other, as pixa never serves the
-  source bytes; there is no setting to keep metadata; documented in `README.md`.
- 2026-09-28 rate limit the login form (closes #66): `POST /` is limited to 5
-  attempts per minute per client address, and an attempt over the limit is
-  refused with 429 and a `Retry-After` header; the address is the one
-  `internal/clientip` resolves through `trusted_proxies`, an IPv6 client is
-  counted by its /64, and an IPv4-mapped address as the IPv4 address it
-  carries; the limit is a `RateLimit` middleware in `internal/middleware` on
-  `github.com/go-chi/httprate`, which the image routes can reuse; the library
-  keeps counts for the current and the previous minute only; documented in
-  `README.md`.
- 2026-09-28 refuse an unparseable `exp` on `/v1/image/` and log swallowed
-  cache errors (closes #72): an `exp` in the URL that is not a whole
-  number, an empty `exp=` included, is a 400 naming `exp` and the value,
-  instead of being ignored and answered with 401 as if the URL had no
-  `exp`; only an `exp` missing from the URL is unchanged; `README.md` says
-  so where it documents `exp`. A failed variant `.meta` write, source
-  metadata JSON write, `Stats` count query, stats counter update, negative
-  cache write or expired negative cache delete is now logged at `warn`
-  with the path or key and the error, and stays non-fatal.
- 2026-09-28 refuse an empty `fit` on `/v1/image/` (closes #139): a
-  `fit` in the URL with an empty value (`fit=`) is a 400 naming `fit`,
-  instead of being served as `cover` and verified against a signature
-  made for `cover`; only a `fit` missing from the URL is still `cover`;
-  any other value still goes through the existing fit-mode check;
-  `README.md` says so where it documents `fit`.
- 2026-09-28 refuse an invalid `q` on `/v1/image/` (closes #134): a `q`
-  that is not a whole number from 1 to 100, an empty `q` included, is a
-  400 naming `q` and the value, instead of being served at the default
-  85; the route reads `q` with the generator's quality check
-  (`parseFormInt` with `minQuality` and `maxQuality`); only a `q` missing
-  from the URL is still 85; a query string that cannot be decoded, such
-  as `q=80%`, is a 400 showing it; any query parameter given more than
-  once (`q`, `fit`, `sig`, `exp` alike) is a 400 naming it, so none is
-  read from its first value only; `README.md` states the range and both
-  query-string rules.
- 2026-09-28 unknown `PIXA_` environment variables abort startup (closes
-  #133): a variable whose name starts with `PIXA_` but is neither a
-  setting's variable nor `PIXA_CONFIG_PATH` aborts startup naming it, as
-  an unknown config key does, and `PIXA_PORT` is named with a pointer to
-  `PORT`; the check runs after the config file loads, so the variables
-  the file's `env:` section sets are checked too; documented in
-  `README.md`.
- 2026-09-28 start on a fresh upaas volume (closes #129): the image
-  starts as root only to give `/var/lib/pixa` to `pixad` when `pixad`
-  does not own it (`deploy/docker-entrypoint.sh`), then runs the server
-  as `pixad` through `su-exec`, so a root-owned host directory
-  bind-mounted there no longer stops the container at startup;
-  `README.md` gains a "Running under upaas" section.
- 2026-09-28 run all linting in Docker via `Dockerfile.lint` +
-  `script/lint` (closes #104): `make lint` calls `script/lint`, the only
-  way the linter is run; inside a container (both Dockerfiles set
-  `container=docker`) it runs `golangci-lint`, anywhere else it builds the
-  hash-pinned `Dockerfile.lint`, whose last step runs `script/lint` again;
-  the `Dockerfile` lint stage runs `make lint`; no host or nix-shell
-  `golangci-lint` path remains (`script/bootstrap` installs no linter);
-  a per-run `CACHEBUST` build-arg keeps the lint step from being served
-  from cache, and a tmpfs mount on that step keeps Go's and
-  golangci-lint's caches out of its layer, so a run leaves no large build
-  cache behind; `golangci-lint config verify` stays out, as it fetches its
-  schema over an unpinned live HTTPS call
