security: add headers middleware, session regeneration, and body size limits (#41)

## Summary

This PR implements three security hardening measures:

### Security Headers Middleware (closes #34)

Adds a `SecurityHeaders()` middleware applied globally to all routes. Every response now includes:
- `Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload`
- `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`
- `X-Frame-Options: DENY`
- `Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'`
- `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin`
- `Permissions-Policy: camera=(), microphone=(), geolocation=()`

### Session Fixation Prevention (closes #38)

Adds a `Regenerate()` method to the session manager that destroys the old session and creates a new one with a fresh ID, copying all session values. Called after successful login to prevent session fixation attacks.

### Request Body Size Limits (closes #39)

Adds a `MaxBodySize()` middleware using `http.MaxBytesReader` to limit POST/PUT/PATCH request bodies to 1 MB. Applied to all form endpoints (`/pages`, `/sources`, `/source/*`).

## Files Changed

- `internal/middleware/middleware.go` — Added `SecurityHeaders()` and `MaxBodySize()` middleware
- `internal/session/session.go` — Added `Regenerate()` method for session fixation prevention
- `internal/handlers/auth.go` — Updated login handler to regenerate session after authentication
- `internal/server/routes.go` — Added SecurityHeaders globally, MaxBodySize to form route groups
- `README.md` — Documented new middleware in stack, updated Security section, moved items to completed TODO

closes #34, closes #38, closes #39
