feat(11-03): re-authorize every Centrifugo subscribe through a namespace registry

- lighthouse: Registry of namespace authorizers (Result, Allowed, Denied),
  ParseChannel, ChannelID with PHP (int)-cast semantics (PHPInt, pinned by
  a php -r table test), FormatChannels, WithClientID/ClientID
- centrifugo: ProxyHandler (constant-time X-Centrifugo-Secret, HTTP 200

 A driver may need HTTP endpoints, such as a token route for signed-in users or a callback the realtime server calls. It declares them as `lighthouse.Route` values, each tagged with a `lighthouse.Surface`. The application mounts them once with `lighthouse.Mount` and decides the guard, group and rate-limit bucket per surface. Switching drivers never edits the application's route file.

+Channel authorization is transport-neutral too. Plugins register a `lighthouse.Authorizer` per channel namespace on the service's `lighthouse.Registry`. The driver's subscribe endpoint asks the authorizer of the channel's namespace on every subscribe, so a user who loses access is denied the next time the client subscribes. Nothing is cached.

 - The `lighthouse.Publisher` interface (`Publish` for one channel, `Broadcast` for several) and the `lighthouse.Driver` interface, which adds `Name` and `Routes`.
 - Route mounting by surface: `lighthouse.UserAuth`, `lighthouse.ServerToServer` and `lighthouse.Public`. `lighthouse.Mount` puts user and public routes in `Group` and server-to-server routes in `GroupRaw`, each with the surface middleware followed by `lighthouse.Surfaces.Middleware`. A `lighthouse.UserAuth` route with no user middleware is refused, so a token route can never be mounted without a guard. Every route is validated before any is registered.
 - Users and actors: the application installs a `lighthouse.UserLookup` with `lighthouse.Service.SetUserLookup`. `lighthouse.Service.User` loads a `lighthouse.User` (id and display name). `lighthouse.Service.Actor` returns the `lighthouse.Actor` of a request, and `lighthouse.SystemActor` when there is no signed-in user or the principal is a backend admin.
+- Channel rules. A channel is `namespace:entity:id`, optionally prefixed once with `presence:`.
+  - `lighthouse.ParseChannel` returns the namespace. It returns "" for a `presence:presence:` prefix or for more than three segments. The lookup is byte-exact and case-sensitive.
+  - `lighthouse.ChannelID` returns segment 1 converted with PHP's `(int)` cast (`lighthouse.PHPInt`): `5abc` is 5, `abc` is 0, and out-of-range values saturate.
+  - `lighthouse.FormatChannels` lowercases channel names and applies the broadcast namespace prefix.
+- Authorizer registry: `lighthouse.Registry` (from `lighthouse.Service.Registry`) maps namespaces to a `lighthouse.Authorizer` or `lighthouse.AuthorizerFunc`. Registering an empty namespace, a namespace that contains `:`, a nil authorizer or a namespace twice is an error. `lighthouse.Registry.Namespaces` is sorted. An authorizer returns `lighthouse.Allowed` (optionally with info, capabilities and overrides) or `lighthouse.Denied` with an internal reason that only reaches the logs. It reads the realtime client id with `lighthouse.ClientID`.
 - Centrifugo driver (`centrifugo.Driver`, driver name `centrifugo`):
   - `centrifugo.Client` POSTs `publish`, `broadcast`, `presence` and `unsubscribe` calls with `Authorization: apikey <key>` and a 5 s timeout. The publish body is `{"channel":…,"data":{"event":…,"payload":…,"timestamp":"…+00:00"}}`, with an empty payload sent as `[]`. Any 2xx status counts as success. With an empty API key nothing is sent and the call returns `centrifugo.ErrNotConfigured`. The key never appears in logs or errors.
   - `centrifugo.TokenIssuer` signs HS256 tokens with five generators, the same as the WinterCMS generator: `ForUser` (claims `sub`, `exp`, `info` with only `name`), `Subscription`, `Anonymous` (`sub` "" and a 5-minute lifetime), `ForIdentifier` (an empty `info` is encoded as `[]`) and `SubscriptionForIdentifier`. It refuses to sign with an empty secret.
   - `centrifugo.TokenHandler` serves the token route. It answers 401 `{"error":"Unauthorized"}` when no user is signed in, 503 `{"error":"WebSocket not configured"}` when the token secret is empty, and otherwise 200 `{"token":"…"}`. It sends `Cache-Control: no-cache, private` and no trailing newline.
+  - `centrifugo.ProxyHandler` is the subscribe proxy endpoint. Centrifugo reads a non-200 status as an internal error, so every answer is HTTP 200. The checks run in this order:
+    1. `X-Centrifugo-Secret` must equal `realtime.centrifugo.proxy_secret`, compared in constant time. An empty configured secret denies every subscribe.
+    2. An empty or `"0"` user denies. The user may arrive as a JSON string or number; any other type counts as empty.
+    3. A missing channel denies. Centrifugo always sends one.
+    4. The channel's namespace must have a registered authorizer.
+    5. The authorizer receives the user id and the full original channel.
+
+    An allow answers `{"result":{"info":…}}`, with an empty info encoded as `[]`. A `presence:` channel also gets `allow` (the authorizer's capabilities, or `["prs"]`) and `override`. The override starts from the defaults `presence` and `join_leave` true and `force_push_join_leave` false, then applies the authorizer's overrides. Every deny answers `{"error":{"code":403,"message":"Access denied"}}` and logs `Subscription denied` at Warn with the reason, and never either secret. The request body is capped at 64 KiB.
