forgejo: open native self-signups, gated by Turnstile + email confirmation
All checks were successful
ci/woodpecker/push/default Pipeline was successful

Viktor wants Forgejo open for anyone to sign up, but without bot/spam
account floods. Flip the deployment from OAuth-only registration
(ALLOW_ONLY_EXTERNAL_REGISTRATION=true) to allowing native local
sign-up, and add two bot gates on the registration form:

  - Cloudflare Turnstile captcha (CAPTCHA_TYPE=cfturnstile). The widget
    is managed in Terraform (turnstile.tf) via the CF Global API key, so
    the sitekey/secret are IaC, not a dashboard artifact.
  - Mandatory email confirmation (REGISTER_EMAIL_CONFIRM=true). Wire the
    Forgejo mailer to the cluster mailserver as noreply@viktorbarzin.me
    (mail.viktorbarzin.me:587 STARTTLS), reusing the same Vault-sourced
    credential Authentik uses (email-secret.tf ESO -> secret/authentik
    smtp_password).

Existing Authentik OAuth2 login is unchanged (additive). Deployment env
appended (not inserted) so the diff stays purely additive; a reloader
annotation rolls the pod on secret rotation.

Verified live: signup page renders the Turnstile widget, mailer delivers
a test message end-to-end, Forgejo healthy, plan-to-zero after apply.
