v0.5.5: SFTP-over-SSH remote shares (russh, pure-Rust, ring backend)

Adds SFTP as a third remote ISO-library protocol alongside SMB and NFS.
Pure-Rust russh + russh-sftp on the ring crypto backend — no kernel
mount, no subprocess, no OpenSSL, no new C deps. Like NFS (and unlike
SMB), SFTP-sourced ISOs support HTTP Range requests because SFTP opens
a seekable file handle.

- iso-store: SftpShareManager (connect/auth/READDIR/seekable stream),
  IsoSource::Sftp, password OR SSH-key auth, trust-on-first-use host-key
  pinning, 0600 credential sidecar with a restart-safe derived path.
- http-api: /api/sftp-shares routes, Range-aware ISO dispatch arm,
  status/metrics counts, /api/docs entry, `sftp` terminal commands.
- webui: "SFTP (SSH)" protocol option with a password/key auth toggle,
  host-key fingerprint display, dashboard tile, updated copy.

SCP was deliberately rejected: sequential-only (no Range) and its crates
wrap libssh2 (C + OpenSSL), which would break the static-musl build.

russh is pinned to =0.55.0: russh 0.61 needs the stable RustCrypto
generation (pkcs8 0.11), which is API-incompatible with the release-
candidate crates bergshamra-crypto pins (pkcs8 =0.11.0-rc.11). 0.55 is
the newest russh on the prior generation (pkcs8 0.7) that coexists. Do
not bump past 0.55 until bergshamra adopts stable RustCrypto.

252 tests pass, clippy clean, static musl x86_64 binary (ring already
present via rustls + bergshamra, so no new crypto/C deps).

# v0.5.5: pure-Rust SSH/SFTP client for reading remote ISO libraries
# over SFTP without a kernel mount.
#
# CRITICAL #1 — crypto backend: `default-features = false` +
# `features = ["ring"]`. russh's *default* backend is `aws-lc-rs`, which
# pulls `aws-lc-sys` (C code, fiddly under musl); the `ring` feature
# instead reuses `ring 0.17` — the exact crate+version already in the
# binary via rustls + bergshamra — so SFTP adds ZERO new C/crypto deps
# and the static-musl build stays OpenSSL-free.
#
# CRITICAL #2 — pinned to EXACTLY 0.55.0, the newest russh that
# coexists with bergshamra-crypto (our SAML core). The RustCrypto
# ecosystem is mid-transition: bergshamra-crypto pins a constellation of
# release-CANDIDATE crates (`pkcs8 =0.11.0-rc.11` and its matching
# pkcs5/spki RCs) that are API-incompatible with the STABLE versions of
# the same crates in the same semver bucket. russh 0.56+ pulls those
# stable crates (`pkcs5 0.8`), which silently replaces bergshamra's RC
# copies and breaks compilation. russh ≤0.55 stays on the previous stable
# generation (`pkcs5 0.7`, `ssh-key 0.6`), which unifies with bergshamra's
# *stable* deps and leaves the RC bucket untouched — verified to compile.
# 0.55 still has the merged `russh::keys` API (keys merged at 0.50).
# IMPORTANT: do NOT bump russh past 0.55 until bergshamra-crypto adopts
# the stable RustCrypto generation; 0.56+ will not compile in this tree.
#
# SCP was deliberately rejected: the protocol is sequential-only (no
# random access → no HTTP Range, unlike SFTP/NFS) and the mature SCP
# crates wrap libssh2 (C + OpenSSL), which would break this build.
