Erich Blume 80c33ccaf1 Add forge.eblu.me to Fly.io proxy with rate limiting and fail2ban
nginx configuration:
- forge.eblu.me server block with WebSocket support, 512m body limit
- Rate limit login/signup/forgot-password at 3r/s per real client IP
  (keyed on Fly-Client-IP header, not Fly's internal remote_addr)
- Static asset caching (7d), no blanket caching for dynamic content
- Security headers (HSTS, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options)
- Block /swagger (API docs only available via tailnet)
- X-Real-IP set to real client IP for Forgejo audit logs
- geo-based deny list for fail2ban integration

fail2ban configuration:
- Custom filter matching 401/403 on login paths in nginx JSON log
- Ban after 5 failures in 10 minutes, ban duration 1 hour
- Custom nginx-deny action: writes IPs to deny file and reloads nginx
  (iptables won't work in Fly.io — remote_addr is Fly's proxy IP)
- Ban lists ephemeral across deploys (nginx rate limiting is persistent)

# Custom fail2ban action that bans IPs via an nginx deny list.
# Standard iptables banning won't work in Fly.io because $remote_addr
# is Fly's internal proxy IP. Instead, we write banned IPs to a file
# that nginx checks via a geo directive keyed on $http_fly_client_ip.
