Bound every slog line against client-chosen text (closes #176)
MaxBodySize logged r.URL.Path untruncated at WARN, and routes.go
registers it ahead of RequireAuth, so an unauthenticated
POST /source/<8 KB>/edit with an oversize declared Content-Length wrote
attacker-chosen text of attacker-chosen length into the operator's log,
for the cost of a request with no body. The 2,560-byte per-line budget
from #146 did not reach it: that budget lives in the access log's field
capping and this is a separate slog call.

The capping mechanism moves out of internal/middleware into
internal/logfield so there is one budget and one implementation rather
than a second ad-hoc truncation. Truncate and EncodedBytes are
unchanged; the access log now spends logfield.MaxBytes where it spent
maxLogFieldBytes.

The sweep the issue asked for found five more call sites of the same
shape, all reachable unauthenticated, all now capped: the CSRF 403
(also registered ahead of RequireAuth), the rate limiters' 429 (the
per-entrypoint receiver limiter is unauthenticated), RequireAuth's own
DEBUG line, the unknown-entrypoint DEBUG line on the receiver, and the
failed-login DEBUG lines. DEBUG being off by default is not a bound: an
operator turning it on to diagnose a flood must not thereby hand the
flood an unbounded write. Every other slog call in the tree was read
and judged; the PR body lists all of them, including the ones left
alone and why.

MaxBodySize stays ahead of RequireAuth. An oversize body should be
refused before the request buys a cookie decrypt and a session load,
and rejecting first is what keeps an unauthenticated flood from
choosing how much session work the process does. The ordering and what
it costs are now written at the registration, on maxFormBodySize.

MaxAccessLogLineBytes is restated as the ceiling on every slog line
carrying text an UNAUTHENTICATED client supplies, not just the access
log's: each of these lines carries strictly fewer client-supplied
fields than the access log does, so none can be wider. That is asserted
per line under both handlers rather than argued. The claim is qualified
rather than universal because three kinds of writer are outside it, and
the README and the constant now name all three: lines carrying an
authenticated operator's own input, which are not truncated at all (the
webhook name on "webhook created" reaches 600 KB on one line from a
100 KB form field, measured; the SSRF-rejection url and the target_name
lines are the same shape) and are left uncapped deliberately, since
truncating the operator's own configuration echoed back costs
debuggability against no adversary; the log delivery target, which
exists to emit the whole event; and GORM's default logger, which prints
the interpolated SQL to stdout on a record-not-found and is unbounded
on the receiver and login lookups. That last one is a real defect this
audit turned up and is filed separately as #178, not fixed here.

Tests drive 8 KB of client-chosen text at all six sites, through both
handlers internal/logger can install and through each character they
escape — including a bare C0 control, which costs six bytes on the line
against the one it cost to send and is the case a raw-byte budget
breaks on first. Each holds the encoded line to the ceiling, holds the
whole flood's output to what that ceiling allows, and asserts the
markers at the far end of the input are absent, so a value that merely
happened to be short cannot pass. The two login lines past the username
lookup, capped for uniformity rather than need, are pinned too.
internal/logfield gains a test that measures the per-rune charge
against what the handlers really emit over roughly 3,000 code points on
each, so an undercharged rune fails a test instead of quietly
falsifying the ceiling.

Verified by mutation: reverting the MaxBodySize cap alone fails 28
subtests with a 16,583-byte line against the 2,560 ceiling; reverting
the other five fails 70; uncapping the two login lines past the lookup
fails 2; budgeting raw bytes instead of encoded ones fails 23 across
three packages.
