Yaojia Wang 469037cb94 feat(auth): optional WEBTERM_TOKEN access-token gate (W5)
An OPTIONAL shared token so the app can be used off-LAN (via the relay/tunnel) more
safely than "anyone who reaches the port gets a shell". Sits IN FRONT OF the existing
Origin/CSRF model — never replacing it — and is fully inert when unset.

- src/http/auth.ts (new, pure): constantTimeEqual hashes both inputs to sha256 (32
  bytes) then crypto.timingSafeEqual — no `===`, no length side-channel, never throws.
  parseCookieHeader / cookieIsAuthed / buildSetCookie / isAuthEnabled.
- WEBTERM_TOKEN in config: 16–512 URL/cookie-safe chars or the server refuses to start.
- GET /?token=<t> or POST /auth (rate-limited 10/min) validates → sets
  HttpOnly; SameSite=Strict; Secure-when-https cookie; public/login.html (no <script>).
- When enabled: the WS handshake (AFTER the Origin check, before handleUpgrade) + a
  central authGate over all remote HTTP require the cookie. Open: /login, /auth.
  Loopback bypass scoped to /hook* ONLY (tighter than the plan — gates the local
  browser too).
- Unset ⇒ isAuthEnabled false ⇒ pure passthrough (LAN zero-config unchanged).

Honest tradeoff (in code + CLAUDE.md + login page): a bar-raiser, NOT a TLS/Tailscale
substitute — on bare ws:// the token is cleartext + replayable; only hardens the
TLS-terminated relay path. Verified: typecheck + build:web clean, 2118 pass at
--test-timeout=30000 (disabled-mode regression proven; only the known tmux flake red);
auth.ts 100% line coverage.

/**
* test/integration/auth.test.ts — real-server integration for the optional
* access-token gate (w5-access-token). Pattern mirrors integration/server.test.ts.
*
* Two axes:
* - DISABLED (no WEBTERM_TOKEN): everything works byte-identically to today —
* WS connects on Origin alone, state-changing routes gated only by Origin.
* - ENABLED: the gate + WS cookie check activate ALONGSIDE (never replacing)
* the Origin/CSRF model.
*
* All traffic here is loopback (127.0.0.1). The gate's loopback bypass is scoped
* to the /hook* ingest paths only, so non-hook routes are genuinely gated even
* from 127.0.0.1 — which is what makes the "unauthed → 401/302" cases testable.
*
* Each test gets its own port + server (beforeEach) so the per-IP auth rate
* limiter never leaks across cases.
