fix(auth): repair persistence layer and stop storing plaintext keys

- Store SHA-256 digests (key_hash + key_preview) instead of raw keys, in
  both the in-memory store and Postgres; migrate legacy plaintext rows in
  place and drop the plaintext column.
- Fix TEXT[] scans that failed at runtime (missing pq.Array) in
  GetKey/ListKeys/LoadAllKeys.
- Load persisted keys at startup (InitializeFromDatabase was never called)
  and fall back to the database on cache miss, so issued keys survive
  restarts.
- Make HybridKeyStore.CreateKey genuinely write-through: cache is only
  updated after a successful DB write.
- Guard nil database backend (auth enabled without DB previously panicked
  on key creation) and degrade to in-memory operation.
- Persist bootstrap admin keys when a database is configured.
- Record real audit-log details as JSON and log audit failures instead of
  silently dropping them; add DB pool limits and ping timeout.
- Sentinel errors matched with errors.Is; unit tests for hashing,
  write-through ordering, DB fallback, and nil-DB operation.
