rcourtman 92387022ec refactor: Mark legacy SSH detection as temporary migration scaffolding
Addresses user concern about technical debt: detection code exists only
to handle migration from SSH-in-container to proxy architecture, not to
serve functional purpose of the application.

Changes:
- Add PULSE_LEGACY_DETECTION env var to disable detection without redeployment
- Add explicit removal criteria: v5.0 or <1% detection rate for 30+ days
- Mark all detection code with "MIGRATION SCAFFOLDING" warnings
- Create MIGRATION_SCAFFOLDING.md to track temporary code across codebase
- Document removal instructions for when migration period ends

Backend:
- internal/api/router.go: detectLegacySSH() checks env var and has removal plan
- internal/api/types.go: HealthResponse fields documented as temporary

Frontend:
- src/components/LegacySSHBanner.tsx: Component marked with removal criteria
- src/App.tsx: Banner integration (will be removed with component)

This approach balances user safety during migration (auto-detection catches
rushed admins who skip changelogs) with long-term code cleanliness (explicit
removal plan prevents indefinite technical debt).

Important Note About frontend-modern/

The frontend-modern/ subdirectory that appears here is:

  • AUTO-GENERATED during builds
  • NOT the source code - just a build artifact
  • IN .gitignore - never committed
  • REQUIRED BY GO - The embed directive needs it here

Frontend Development Location

👉 Edit frontend files at: /opt/pulse/frontend-modern/src/

Why This Structure?

Go's //go:embed directive has limitations:

  1. Cannot use ../ paths to access parent directories
  2. Cannot follow symbolic links
  3. Must embed files within the Go module

This is a known Go limitation and our structure works around it.
