feat(gateway): /g/:slug proxy data plane with key auth and rate limits (#66)

The admin surface under /admin/gateway managed api_services and api_keys,
but no public route ever consumed them. Mounts /g/:slug and /g/:slug/* on
the root router (outside /api/v1 so route_prefix stays clean) and runs the
full pipeline: slug lookup -> X-API-Key/Bearer extraction -> prefix-indexed
bcrypt key auth -> allowed_service_ids scope -> per-minute buckets (key and
service caps) -> monthly usage_counters quotas -> gateway.ProxyRequest with
per-service timeout and upstream auth headers -> usage/metrics/incident
recording.

Live-verified: proxied GET/POST, 401/404/429 boundaries, counter upserts,
UPSTREAM_5XX incidents. Unit tests cover URL building, the rpm bucket, key
extraction, and the service allowlist.
