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.

`golangci-lint config verify` runs as its own epoch-keyed layer, above
the lint. It is not belt-and-braces: `golangci-lint run` rejects a
config it cannot PARSE but silently IGNORES an unknown top-level KEY.
Renaming .golangci.yml's `linters:` to `linterz:` -- one character --
discards `default: all`, the disable list and every threshold, leaves
only the small default linter set running, and exits 0 reporting
`0 issues.` on a tree the real config fails with an lll finding, in a
run whose lint layer demonstrably executed. That is a set-but-
ineffective config falling back to defaults instead of failing loudly,
sitting in the gate's own configuration. `config verify` catches it and
does so with the network genuinely off at this pin: under
`docker run --network none` against the pinned digest it exits 0 on
this repo's config and exits 3 on the `linterz:` variant. It is keyed
on CHECK_EPOCH like the lint itself, because a cached validation
validates nothing.

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, the
config verification running before the lint, and -- structurally, not
by searching for one retired variable name -- that no script invokes
golangci-lint except through docker. 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. The scanner behind the last of
those has its own test, because a structural check that goes blind
passes on every tree, including a broken one.

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/lint-fix: run the linter's autofixer. Rewrites files in place
# for every finding the enabled linters know how to fix; findings
# without an autofix are reported but left alone.

# THIS IS A DEVELOPER CONVENIENCE AND NEVER A GATE. Nothing in
# script/check, script/precommit or script/cibuild calls it, and no gate
# reads its exit status. The gate is script/lint, which builds
# Dockerfile.lint; run that afterwards to find out whether the tree is
# actually clean.
#
# Unlike script/lint this cannot be a build step: a build step writes
# into an image, and fixes have to land in the worktree. So it runs the
# same pinned image as a container with the tree bind-mounted, which
# means it needs a LOCAL docker daemon -- a remote daemon has no access
# to these files, and this script will appear to do nothing there. The
# image reference is parsed out of Dockerfile.lint's FROM line, so the
# autofixer is always the same version as the linter that gates; fixes
# written by a different version are not necessarily fixes for the
# version that decides.
