loki: add basic auth for log push and dual-ship promtail
Some checks failed
Run nix flake check / flake-check (push) Failing after 4m36s

- Loki bound to localhost, Caddy reverse proxy with basic_auth
- Vault secret (shared/loki/push-auth) for password, bcrypt hash
  generated at boot for Caddy environment
- Promtail dual-ships to monitoring01 (direct) and loki.home.2rjus.net
  (with basic auth), conditional on vault.enable
- Terraform: new shared loki-push policy added to all AppRoles
