#5031 "Forged-request protection: SameSite cookie, per-session CSRF token
on every non-GET, HTMX header". A page on another site could make a
logged-in browser POST to Steward with the session cookie attached.

- steward/auth/csrf.py: a per-session token, checked in one before_request
  for every POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE (header X-CSRF-Token or form field
  csrf_token, constant-time compare). The bearer-authenticated host-agent
  ingest is exempt; /mcp never reaches Quart.
- Every POST form renders {{ csrf_field() }}; base.html carries the token
  in a meta tag and adds it to every HTMX request; the dashboard's fetch()
  calls send it.
- The session cookie is SameSite=Lax; login issues a fresh token.
- PUBLIC_BASE_URL is now loaded from Settings at startup (it was only set
  when Settings → General was saved).
- tests/test_csrf.py: refusal, acceptance, rotation, the ingest exemption,
  and a guard that every POST form in the templates carries the field.
