feat(crypto): fail loudly on unpersistable secret key; flag undecryptable secrets
Follow-up to the incident where an unwritable /data made Steward silently mint a
fresh ephemeral secret key on every boot, orphaning all encrypted secrets — only
discovered when an Ansible run failed. Make both failure modes loud and visible.

- config._resolve_secret_key: if a new key must be generated but can't be
  persisted (no STEWARD_SECRET_KEY, unwritable /data), raise RuntimeError and
  refuse to start, with an actionable fix (set STEWARD_SECRET_KEY, or make /data
  writable by uid 1000). Also raises a clear error if an existing key file can't
  be read. First-run on a writable volume still generates + persists normally.
- core.settings: detect secrets stored as ciphertext that won't decrypt with the
  current key (scan_undecryptable_secrets at startup; _is_undecryptable helper).
  Cached in memory; set_setting discards a key on a fresh write so the banner
  clears without a restart.
- app.py: run the scan after migrate_plaintext_secrets, log a warning, and inject
  undecryptable_secrets into the template context.
- base.html: admin banner naming which secrets to re-enter, each linked to its
  settings tab.
- compose.deploy.yml: document the uid-1000 /data write requirement and the
  STEWARD_SECRET_KEY option for multi-node Swarm.
- Tests: secret-key resolver (reuse existing file, generate when writable, raise
  when unpersistable) and the undecryptable-secret detection helper.
