Raise HTTP WriteTimeout above the request middleware timeout (closes #62) (#72)
All checks were successful
check / check (push) Successful in 4s

Raise `httpWriteTimeout` in `internal/server/http.go` from 10s to `65 * time.Second` so it comfortably exceeds the router's 60s `requestTimeout`. This makes the `middleware.Timeout(60s)` the effective request limit — a slow response now returns a clean 503 from the middleware instead of being cut at the socket write deadline by the transport.

`httpReadTimeout` stays at 10s. A comment on `httpWriteTimeout` documents that it must remain above the 60s request timeout. Change is confined to `internal/server/http.go`; `routes.go` is untouched.

Closes #62
