Add optional inbound webhook signature verification (closes #67)
A receiver URL was a bare v4 UUID and nothing else: anyone who learned
it could store events and, because inbound headers are forwarded to
targets almost verbatim, choose what the downstream service received.

Entrypoints gain an optional scheme/secret pair. GitHub's
X-Hub-Signature-256 (HMAC-SHA256 hex over the raw body) and GitLab's
X-Gitlab-Token (plain shared token) are supported; both compare with
hmac.Equal. With nothing configured an entrypoint behaves exactly as
before, which is also where every pre-existing row lands after
AutoMigrate adds the columns.

Verification runs after the capped body read and before the first
write, so a rejected request leaves no event row, no delivery row and
no delivery task. A configuration the receiver cannot apply — unknown
scheme, or one half of the pair missing — is refused with a 500 rather
than falling back to unverified.

The secret is credential-bearing and is stored in the clear because
HMAC needs the key itself. It is excluded from JSON, kept out of
templates by a new handlers.EntrypointView projection, and absent from
every log line including the rejection path. The UI sets and rotates
it through one form that never renders the stored value.
