Jan Eitzinger 2b01b57495 feat: replace gorilla/sessions with alexedwards/scs/v2 ...

Browser sessions are now server-side, stored in the SQLite database via
scs/sqlite3store (new `sessions` table, DB migration to version 12) instead
of gorilla/sessions client-side cookie storage. Only an opaque random token
is kept in the cookie; session data lives server-side and survives restarts.

Session middleware is wired as a hybrid to avoid buffering large responses:
scs.LoadAndSave on the login/logout write paths, and a non-buffering
read-only LoadSession middleware on the secured/config/frontend read paths
so the large GraphQL /query responses stream unbuffered. JWT-only APIs
(/api, /userapi, /api/metricstore) and static files are left unwrapped.

The session cookie Secure flag is now derived from the server config (set
when cc-backend terminates TLS itself); previously it was effectively never
set. The SESSION_KEY env var is removed as server-side tokens need no
signing secret. The dormant Bearer-JWT branch in the frontend urql client
is removed; the web UI authenticates GraphQL via the session cookie.

Closes #558
