#215: trusted reverse-proxy header / mTLS client-certificate path
For perimeters that authenticate before the application (ADR 0021 §4).
Off unless BOTH AUTH_PROXY_HEADER and AUTH_PROXY_TRUSTED_PEERS are set —
nothing about the header is guessed. The peer check runs against the TCP
peer address only (a forwarded header is attacker-influenced): a request
carrying the header from any other peer is rejected outright and audited
as auth.proxy_rejected (catalogue v1.4) — that is a spoof attempt, not a
misconfiguration — even when a valid session cookie rides along. From a
trusted peer the header IS the identity; a session cookie never
escalates beyond it; with the feature off the header is inert.

Mapping is explicit (AUTH_PROXY_MAP: username or e-mail); deliberately
no just-in-time creation — the header carries no verified address. The
mTLS variant (AUTH_PROXY_MODE=mtls-dn) maps the configured attribute
(default CN) out of the certificate subject DN the TLS terminator
forwards, under the same peer rules. Session-less proxy requests key the
read trail per user (user:<id>).

The trust boundary is stated in security.md (the section an assessor
reads closest), the VS-NfD security documentation and the hardening
guide's deploy table. Tests cover all four decisions: off = inert,
trusted peer authenticates (username and DN mapping), untrusted peer
rejected + audited, no escalation past a session cookie.

Refs #215.
