Fix Fly.io proxy: use TUN networking, preauthorize key, move healthz

Resolves multiple issues found during first deploy:
- Drop --tun=userspace-networking: Fly.io Firecracker VMs support TUN
  natively; userspace mode broke MagicDNS and Tailscale IP routing
- Add preauthorized=True to TailnetKey: required when tailnet has
  device approval enabled, otherwise containers hang on restart
- Move /healthz to default_server: Fly health checks send no Host
  header, so healthz must be on the catch-all server block
- Change region from sea (deprecated) to sjc
- Add iptables/ip6tables for TUN device support
- Add proxy_ssl_server_name for proper TLS SNI
