Mitigate Forgejo archive endpoint DoS from crawler abuse 
Crawlers hitting /archive/ endpoints with unique commit SHAs generated 54GB
of git bundles in 2 days, pegging Forgejo at 43% CPU. Fix at multiple layers:

- Redirect archive requests to tailnet at Fly proxy (302)
- Expand robots.txt: block /users/, /*/archive/, /*/releases/download/
- Cache release artifact downloads at nginx (immutable, 7d TTL)
- Enable [cron.archive_cleanup] with 2h TTL and run-at-start
