Lint in a container as a build step, via Dockerfile.lint (closes #113)
Every lint run now happens inside its own container, invoked through
script/lint, and linting is a build step rather than a container
command: a successful build of the new root Dockerfile.lint IS a clean
lint. That shape also works where the docker daemon is remote and bind
mounts are impossible.

Its FROM line -- golangci/golangci-lint:v2.12.2, pinned by digest -- is
now the only pin of the linter version in this repo.

A container per run has its own lint cache and its own golangci-lint
lock, both discarded with it, so neither cross-worktree contamination
nor lock contention exists any more. The machinery that defended
against them is therefore gone: the per-worktree cache directories, the
lock-retry loop, and script/lint-audit, which existed to catch findings
replayed from a cache that no longer exists. So is the host lint path
in its entirety -- the native escape hatch, its version detection, and
VAULTIK_LINT_IN_CONTAINER in both script/lint and the Dockerfile.
Nothing lints on the host, at any version.

A cached build lints nothing, so the CHECK_EPOCH mechanism the product
Dockerfile already used is what makes a green mean something:
ARG CHECK_EPOCH with no default, placed below the module layers so
dependency caching survives, a `RUN [ -n "$CHECK_EPOCH" ] || exit 1`
guard so a build that withholds the arg fails instead of replaying, and
the value expanded into the lint command itself. script/lint computes
`epoch="$(date +%s%N)$$"` as a bare assignment on its own line, because
inline in the argument a failing substitution does not abort under
`set -eu` and yields a constant empty epoch -- which is exactly the
false green being prevented.

The product Dockerfile loses its lint stage rather than gaining a
second linter pin. That stage ran `make lint`, which is now
`docker build`: docker-in-docker inside a BuildKit step with no daemon.
Calling golangci-lint directly there instead would have meant two
independently bumpable digests for one tool. `make fmt-check` moves
beside `make test` in the builder stage, and script/cibuild now builds
Dockerfile.lint and then Dockerfile, each with its own fresh epoch,
failing on either. Consequence, stated in comments rather than left to
be discovered: script/docker builds the product image only and no
longer lints; script/check and script/cibuild are the gates.

Two decisions taken deliberately and documented where they apply.
`golangci-lint config verify` is omitted: it fetches its JSON schema
over an unpinned live HTTPS call, which would make the gate depend on a
remote resource outside this repo's hash-pinning discipline and turn an
upstream outage or an egress-less runner into a red that is not a lint
verdict. script/lint-fix is kept, reimplemented as a bind-mounted
docker run against the image parsed out of Dockerfile.lint -- a build
step cannot write fixes back to the worktree -- and its header states
outright that it is a developer convenience, never a gate, and needs a
local daemon.

cmd/vaultik/lintdocker_test.go parses both Dockerfiles and both scripts
and fails if any part of the mechanism is dropped: the digest pin, the
defaultless ARG below `go mod download`, the emptiness guard, the
expansion of the epoch into each check command, the bare per-invocation
epoch assignment in both scripts, cibuild building both files, and the
absence of any host-lint escape hatch. Every one of those losses is
silent -- the build still exits 0 and nothing is checked -- which is
why they are asserted rather than trusted.

script/lint takes no arguments now, and says so instead of dropping
them: a build step has no command line to pass linter flags to.

# script/cibuild: run the CI build. This is the full gate, and it is two
# builds, in this order:
#
# Dockerfile.lint the linter, as a build step (a clean build IS a
# clean lint)
# Dockerfile `make fmt-check` and `make test` in the builder
# stage, then the product image
#
# Either one failing fails this script. Note what follows from the
# split: script/docker builds only the product image and so no longer
# lints -- this script and script/check (which runs script/lint) are the
# things that decide whether the tree is clean.
#
# Generic apart from the two Dockerfiles: the Gitea workflow runs this
# on push.

main() {
cd "$ROOT"
# Both Dockerfiles key their check layers on CHECK_EPOCH, so a fresh
# value is what forces those layers to re-run: without it an
# unchanged tree replays them from cache, the checks never execute,
# and the build still exits 0. Each ARG sits immediately above the
# check RUNs, so dependency and module layers still cache. Both
# Dockerfiles also refuse to build at all when CHECK_EPOCH is empty,
# so a missing value fails loudly here rather than passing quietly.
#
# The value must be unique per invocation, not per second. `date +%s`
# is second-granular, so two concurrent invocations in the same
# second get identical epochs and the later one can be served from
# cache -- the original defect in miniature. `%N` alone does not fix
# it: busybox silently drops %N, exits 0, and hands back second
# granularity with no warning. `$$` is what makes this correct
# regardless, since concurrent invocations have different pids.
#
# Assign the epoch on its own line rather than inline in the
# argument. Under `set -eu` a command substitution that fails
# inside an argument does NOT abort the script: CHECK_EPOCH would
# become an empty string, an empty string is a constant, and a
# constant CHECK_EPOCH is exactly the cached-check false green this
# script exists to prevent -- so the guard would disarm itself and
# still exit 0. As a bare assignment, `set -e` catches a failing
# `date` and no build starts.
#
# A separate value per build, because they are separate builds: one
# `date` shared between them would still be fresh, but reusing it
# invites the two to be collapsed into a single value that is
# computed somewhere else and passed in.
