fix(deploy,db,handler): close fresh-clone postgres init failure + 4 ride-along audit findings (U-3 master)

GitHub #10 reopened: operator mikeakasully cloned v2.0.50 fresh and ran the
canonical quickstart (docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml up -d --build);
postgres reported unhealthy indefinitely, dependent containers never started.

Root cause: deploy/docker-compose.yml mounted a hand-curated subset of
migrations/*.up.sql + seed.sql into postgres /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/.
Postgres applied them at initdb time. Once seed.sql referenced columns added
by migrations *after* the mounted cutoff (e.g., policy_rules.severity from
migration 000013), initdb crashed mid-seed and the container loop wedged.
Two sources of truth (compose mount list vs in-tree migration ladder)
diverged the moment a seed-touching migration shipped, and the only thing
that fixed it was hand-editing the compose file every release.

Fix: remove the dual source. Postgres boots empty; the server applies
migrations + seed at startup via RunMigrations + RunSeed. Helm has used
this pattern since day one (postgres-init emptyDir); compose now matches.

Bundled with four ride-along audit findings whose fixes share the same
schema/db code surface, so operators take the schema-change pain only once:

  cat-u-seed_initdb_schema_drift           [P1, primary] — initdb-mount fix
  cat-o-retry_interval_unit_mismatch       [P1] — column rename minutes→seconds
  cat-o-notification_created_at_dead_field [P2] — add column + populate
  cat-o-health_check_column_orphans        [P1] — drop unwired columns
  cat-u-no_version_endpoint                [P2] — add /api/v1/version

Single migration (000017_db_coupling_cleanup) bundles the three schema
changes under a DO \$\$ guard so re-application is safe; reduces
operator-visible 'schema-change releases' from four to one.

Backend
- internal/repository/postgres/db.go: add RunSeed (baseline) + RunDemoSeed
  (gated by CERTCTL_DEMO_SEED). Both idempotent (ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING in
  every shipped INSERT) so repeated boots are safe; missing-file is no-op
  so custom packaging that strips seeds still boots cleanly.
- cmd/server/main.go: invoke RunSeed (always) + RunDemoSeed (when flag set)
  immediately after RunMigrations.
- internal/repository/postgres/notification.go: NotificationRepository.Create
  now sets created_at (with time.Now() fallback when caller leaves it zero);
  scanNotification reads it back; List + ListRetryEligible SELECT extended.
- internal/repository/postgres/renewal_policy.go: column references updated
  to retry_interval_seconds across SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE sites.
- internal/api/handler/version.go: new VersionHandler exposes
  {version, commit, modified, build_time, go_version} from
  runtime/debug.ReadBuildInfo() with ldflags-supplied Version override.
- internal/api/router/router.go: register GET /api/v1/version through the
  no-auth chain (CORS + ContentType) alongside /health, /ready,
  /api/v1/auth/info.
- cmd/server/main.go: add /api/v1/version to no-auth dispatch + audit
  ExcludePaths so rollout polling doesn't dominate the audit trail.
- internal/config/config.go: add DatabaseConfig.DemoSeed +
  CERTCTL_DEMO_SEED env var.

Migration
- migrations/000017_db_coupling_cleanup.up.sql + .down.sql:
    (1) renewal_policies.retry_interval_minutes → retry_interval_seconds
        (DO \$\$ guard, idempotent re-application)
    (2) notification_events ADD COLUMN created_at TIMESTAMPTZ
        NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW()
    (3) network_scan_targets DROP orphan health_check_enabled +
        health_check_interval_seconds
- migrations/seed.sql: column reference updated to retry_interval_seconds.
- migrations/seed_demo.sql: same column rename + applied at runtime now via
  RunDemoSeed (no longer initdb-mounted).

Compose
- deploy/docker-compose.yml: drop ALL initdb mounts (10 migration files +
  seed.sql); add start_period: 30s to postgres + certctl-server healthchecks
  to absorb the runtime migration + seed application window on first boot.
- deploy/docker-compose.test.yml: same drop (+ ghost seed_test.sql mount
  removed; that file never existed); same healthcheck start_period.
- deploy/docker-compose.demo.yml: replace seed_demo.sql initdb mount with
  CERTCTL_DEMO_SEED=true env var on certctl-server.

Tests
- internal/api/handler/version_handler_test.go: TestVersion_ReturnsBuildInfo,
  TestVersion_RejectsNonGet, TestVersion_LdflagsOverride.
- internal/repository/postgres/seed_test.go: TestRunSeed_AppliesIdempotently,
  TestRunSeed_MissingFileIsNoOp, TestRunDemoSeed_AppliesIdempotently,
  TestMigration000017_RetryIntervalRename,
  TestMigration000017_NotificationCreatedAt,
  TestMigration000017_HealthCheckOrphansDropped (testcontainers, -short skips).
- internal/repository/postgres/notification_test.go:
  TestNotificationRepository_CreatedAt_IsPersisted +
  TestNotificationRepository_CreatedAt_DefaultsToNow.

CI guardrail
- .github/workflows/ci.yml: new 'Forbidden migration mount in compose initdb
  (U-3)' step grep-fails the build if any migrations/*.sql or seed*.sql
  re-appears in /docker-entrypoint-initdb.d in any compose file. Catches
  future drift before a fresh-clone operator hits it.

Spec / Docs
- api/openapi.yaml: add /api/v1/version operation under Health tag.
- docs/architecture.md: replace the 'initdb may run the same SQL' paragraph
  with a post-U-3 single-source-of-truth explanation.
- CHANGELOG.md: full unreleased-section entry covering all 5 closures,
  breaking changes, and the new env var.

Audit doc
- coverage-gap-audit-2026-04-24-v5/unified-audit.md: add new P1 #14
  cat-u-seed_initdb_schema_drift; flip the 4 ride-along findings to
   RESOLVED with closure prose pointing at this commit.

Verification: build/vet/test -short -race all clean across all touched
packages locally; govulncheck reports 0 vulnerabilities affecting our
code; OpenAPI YAML parses; CI U-3 grep guardrail clears against the
post-fix tree.

# Pre-U-3 this stack mounted a hand-curated subset of `migrations/*.up.sql`
# plus `seed.sql` into `/docker-entrypoint-initdb.d/`, and postgres
# initdb-applied them on first boot. The mount list rotted every time a
# new migration shipped that the seed depended on (000013 added
# policy_rules.severity, 000017 renames retry_interval_minutes, etc.) —
# initdb crashed, the container reported `unhealthy` indefinitely, and
# `docker compose -f deploy/docker-compose.yml up -d --build` from a
# fresh clone of v2.0.50 hit it on the first try.
#
# Post-U-3 the schema is built EXCLUSIVELY by the server at startup via
# internal/repository/postgres.RunMigrations + RunSeed. Single source of
# truth, no list to keep in sync. Postgres comes up empty; the server
# waits for it healthy, then applies the full migration ladder + seed in
# one shot. Helm + the dev examples were already runtime-only (Path B)
# and worked through the same window.
#
# `start_period: 30s` gives postgres room to bootstrap on slow runners
# (CI macOS, low-spec laptops) before the healthcheck failure counter
# starts ticking. Pre-U-3 a slow first-init combined with the
# `unhealthy` flap to cascade into certctl-server's `service_healthy`
# depends_on, blocking the whole stack.
