Bound the access log line against client-chosen text (closes #146)
The access log wrote one INFO line per request carrying
r.URL.String(). Registered with Use, it runs ahead of the route
limiter, so a client flooding the unauthenticated receiver with
invented paths wrote attacker-chosen text of attacker-chosen length
into the operator's log, one line per request.

3xx and 4xx responses now log the chi route pattern in place of the
concrete URL, and the fixed literal "(unmatched)" when routing matched
nothing at all. One line per request is retained, so real traffic
stays observable and rate accounting still works, but the line's
content is now bounded by the service's own route table. The pattern
is only populated after routing, so it is read in the deferred part of
the handler rather than before next.ServeHTTP.

The route pattern alone does not close the hole, because it leaves two
other ways for a request to choose the size of the line it writes.

The query string is one: /.well-known/healthcheck and /s/* answer 200
to anyone with no rate limiter in front of them, and /pages/login
behind only the login limiter, so appending 8 KB after the '?' bought
the same amplification as an invented 404 path. The branches that keep
the concrete URL now log the path only, with the query replaced by the
fixed marker "?(redacted)". Nothing debuggable is lost: `page`, on the
authenticated pagination links, is the only query parameter this
service reads.

The headers are the other: useragent and referer are logged on every
line, including the correctly redacted ones, so an 8 KB User-Agent
plus an 8 KB Referer produced a 24 KB line whose url field read
"(unmatched)". Each field a client supplies is now truncated rather
than dropped -- a truncated User-Agent is still worth reading -- to
512 bytes for url, useragent and referer, 128 for request_id (chi
passes an inbound X-Request-Id header straight through), and 32 for
method, which Go accepts as any token up to the header size limit.
Truncation also drops invalid UTF-8, which a JSON encoder would
otherwise expand six-fold past the budget.

A complete line is now at most 2,560 bytes, which the tests assert
against a request carrying 8 KB in the query and 8 KB in each of three
headers, and which the README states so an operator can size log
storage against it.
