Erich Blume b197bd5f58 Adopt Dagger CI for docs build (Phase 2) (#157)
## Summary

Migrates the docs build pipeline to Dagger (Phase 2 of the Dagger CI adoption plan).

- **Backfill `date-modified` frontmatter** on all 80 docs — Dagger's `--src=.` excludes `.git`, so Quartz can't use git history for page dates. Frontmatter dates work with or without git.
- **New `docs-check-frontmatter` mise task + pre-commit hook** — validates all docs have `title`, `tags`, and `date-modified`
- **New Dagger functions** — `build_changelog` (towncrier in Python container) and `build_docs` (chains changelog → Quartz build in Node container, returns tarball)
- **Simplified CI workflow** — the ~44-line inline Quartz build (clone, npm ci, build, tar, cleanup) is replaced by `dagger call build-docs`. Changelog step remains local on the runner since towncrier needs to modify the host working tree for the git commit.

### Design decisions

- **Towncrier runs twice in CI**: once inside Dagger (for the docs tarball) and once on the runner (for the git commit). This is intentional — Dagger's directory export is additive and can't delete the consumed changelog fragments from the host.
- **Artifact hosting stays on Forgejo Releases** (not migrated to Forgejo Packages as the plan doc originally suggested). That migration can happen independently.
- **`date-modified` frontmatter** preserved even though `build_changelog` installs git — the git there is only for towncrier's `git add` call, not for history. The local iteration story (`dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev` with uncommitted changes) depends on frontmatter dates.

### Local iteration

```bash
dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev export --path=./docs-dev.tar.gz
tar tf docs-dev.tar.gz | head -20
```

## Deployment and Testing

- [x] `dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev` produces valid 1.1MB tarball (149 HTML pages)
- [x] Pre-commit hooks pass (including new `docs-check-frontmatter`)
- [ ] Full `workflow_dispatch` run after merge

Architecture

  • Single-node deployment with filesystem storage
  • TSDB index with 24h period
  • Logs collected by alloy and pushed via Loki API
  • Queried via grafana

Log Sources

From Indri (via Alloy):

  • forgejo, tailscale (brew services)
  • alloy, borgmatic, zot, jellyfin (LaunchAgents)

From Kubernetes (via Alloy DaemonSet):

  • All pods in all namespaces

From Fly.io proxy (via embedded Alloy):

  • nginx JSON access logs ({instance="flyio-proxy", job="flyio-nginx"})

Query Examples (LogQL)

{service="forgejo"}                     # All forgejo logs
{service="borgmatic", stream="stderr"}  # Borgmatic errors
{host="indri"} |= "error"               # All logs containing "error"
{instance="flyio-proxy"} |= "docs.eblu.me" # Fly.io proxy access logs for docs
