check / check (push) Successful in 4m12s
Serve Prometheus metrics behind SWWAF_METRICS_TOKEN (closes #23)
GET /_smallwebwaf/metrics answers in the Prometheus text format for a
request carrying SWWAF_METRICS_TOKEN, 401 without it and 404 while it is
unset. Every request under /_smallwebwaf/ but the health check now goes
through the checks and is answered where it would be forwarded, 404 for
any path but the metrics, so none reaches the app. SWWAF_METRICS_TOP_N
bounds the series by country, the rest counted as other.

Judgement call: a request answered at smallwebwaf's own endpoints is
neither forwarded nor refused in the client's history.
Deviation: go.mod and go.sum written by hand from the module proxy and
sum.golang.org, as go runs only through make.
Deviation: no metrics yet for state files read again after an edit or
edits set aside; that work is not merged.

Model: opus-5-5
