denkfabrik-li 7264c44fd7 Serve the interface font from the installation, not from a font CDN
app.blade.php is the root template for all three interfaces, and it opened
with two lines pointing at a third party:

    <link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.bunny.net">
    <link href="https://fonts.bunny.net/css?family=instrument-sans:400,500,600" rel="stylesheet" />

Every visitor to /login, /register, /forgot-password, /s/{token} and every
public listing page therefore made a request to a host the operator did
not choose and could not switch off, before they had done anything at all
-- handing it their IP address, their user agent, and through Origin the
hostname of the installation they were visiting. On the signed-out pages
that is a visitor who has agreed to nothing, and an operator who often has
told their own users that this server is where their files live.

There was no self-hosted copy in the repository, no setting, no mention in
INSTALL.md, DOCKER.md or SECURITY.md, and no SRI on the tag.

The font now ships with the application, through @fontsource/instrument-sans
-- the same font, the same three weights the URL asked for, from a
versioned dependency rather than binaries pasted into the repository.
Vite fingerprints and emits them like any other asset.

Cost, measured on this build: twelve files, 192 KB on disk. A browser
fetches only woff2 and only the subsets it needs, which is 73 KB for all
six woff2 files together and typically 41 KB (latin, three weights) for a
page in English. Against that, every page load loses a DNS lookup, a TLS
handshake and a round trip to another origin, so signed-out pages get
faster rather than slower.

This is a privacy change rather than a vulnerability fix, and worth saying
plainly: the share token does not leak this way. Referrer-Policy:
strict-origin-when-cross-origin is set in both nginx configs and in the
INSTALL.md snippet, so the path never travelled in the Referer. What
travelled was the visit itself.

Not changed: public/.htaccess still sets no security headers at all, so an
Apache installation has no Referrer-Policy. That is a real gap and a
separate change.

Verified: `npm run build` succeeds and emits the faces; no reference to
the CDN survives anywhere in public/build; `tsc --noEmit` and prettier are
clean. No test asserts on the font, before or after.
