feat(login): publish verify key as JWKS

Auth serves its Ed25519 public key at GET /.well-known/jwks.json, so
Core can find the key by the token kid. Startup fails on a blank
JWT_KID, because compose turns an unset value into "" and Core finds
keys only by kid.

 ## Roadmap
 
-- Rate limit `/api/auth/login` and `/api/registration/**`.
-- JWKS endpoint (`/.well-known/jwks.json`), so Core fetches the public key and keys rotate without a redeploy.
 - Short-lived access token plus rotating refresh token in an httpOnly cookie, with CSRF protection. Today the token
   lives 24 h in `localStorage` and cannot be revoked.
 - Account deletion and data export.
