+// Contract:
+//
+//   - When CERTCTL_AGENT_BOOTSTRAP_TOKEN is empty (the v2.0.x default), the

+//     at startup announcing the v2.2.0 deprecation: bootstrap token will
+//     become required in v2.2.0 and unset will fail-loud.
+//
+//   - When the token is non-empty, every registration request must carry
+//     `Authorization: Bearer <token>` whose value matches the configured
+//     token byte-for-byte. The compare uses crypto/subtle.ConstantTimeCompare
+//     to defeat timing oracles.
+//
+//   - Mismatch / missing / malformed → 401 with
+//     {"error":"invalid_or_missing_bootstrap_token"} JSON body. The handler
+//     does NOT echo what the client sent (defence-in-depth against credential
+//     shape leakage to a token spray probe).
+//
+// Generation guidance (lives in docs/quickstart.md): `openssl rand -hex 32`

+// the server, then re-issuing the new token to whoever drives agent
