security: implement pentest remediation (PROXY-001, BURN-001, RATE-001)
...
PROXY-001: Add startup warning when TRUSTED_PROXY_SECRET empty in production
- validate_security_config() checks for missing proxy secret
- Additional warning when PKI enabled without proxy secret
- Tests for security configuration validation
BURN-001: HEAD requests now trigger burn-after-read deletion
- Prevents attacker from probing paste existence before retrieval
- Updated test to verify new behavior
RATE-001: Add RATE_LIMIT_MAX_ENTRIES to cap memory usage
- Default 10000 unique IPs tracked
- Prunes oldest entries when limit exceeded
- Protects against memory exhaustion DoS
Test count: 284 -> 291 (7 new security tests)

allow untrusted certs to manage own pastes
...
Split authentication into two functions:
- get_client_fingerprint(): Identity for ownership (any cert)
- get_client_id(): Elevated privileges (trusted certs only)
Behavior:
- Anonymous: Create only, strict limits
- Untrusted cert: Create + delete/update/list own pastes, strict limits
- Trusted cert: All operations, relaxed limits (50MB, 5x rate)
Updated tests to reflect new behavior where revoked certs
can still manage their own pastes.

increases to slow down attackers. Decays back to base when
abuse stops.
