feat(config,cli): loopback-default binding with fail-loud on external (Phase 7)

The server now defaults to binding 127.0.0.1 and refuses to bind a non-loopback
address (:8484, 0.0.0.0, a LAN IP, …) unless external_bind_allowed = true is set
in config — failing loud at startup instead of silently exposing itself.
External access is expected to go through a reverse proxy (Tailscale / Cloudflare
Access / Caddy), per the locked auth model.

- config: ExternalBindAllowed flag + ValidateBindAddr/isLoopbackHost (tested
  across loopback, all-interfaces, LAN, and override cases).
- cli: --addr default is now 127.0.0.1:8484; serve() validates before binding.

Per-client bearer rotation stays deferred (single shared token for now).
