Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/fix/ci-github-rate-limit' into develop

The test workflow was hitting GitHub's unauthenticated API rate
limit (60 req/hour) when downloading 95 packages via composer
install --prefer-dist, causing 429 Too Many Requests errors.

Two fixes applied:
1. Cache Composer's download cache (~/.composer/cache) keyed on
   composer.lock hash, so repeated CI runs don't re-download
   packages at all.
2. Configure GitHub OAuth token via SYNC_GITHUB_TOKEN secret to
   raise the rate limit to 5,000 req/hour for cache misses.

+### Added
+- **Public rate-limited access** — Select paths can now be made publicly
+  accessible without TOTP authentication, with separate per-IP rate limiting.
+  This is useful for exposing public content (e.g., public Gitea repositories)
+  while protecting server resources from bot traffic.
+  - New `PUBLIC_PATHS` env var: comma-separated path patterns with `*` (single
+    segment) and `**` (cross-segment) wildcard support. Optional host prefix
+    (e.g., `code.example.com/public/**`). When empty (default), the feature
+    is fully disabled.
+  - New `PUBLIC_BURST_COUNT` / `PUBLIC_BURST_TIME` env vars for burst rate
+    limiting (default: 100 requests per 60 seconds).
+  - New `PUBLIC_UPPER_COUNT` / `PUBLIC_UPPER_TIME` env vars for sustained
+    rate limiting (default: 500 requests per 3600 seconds).
+  - Authenticated users bypass the public rate limiter entirely.
+  - Over-limit responses include a `Retry-After` header.
+  - New `PublicPathMatcher` service for path pattern matching.
+  - New `PublicAccessListener` (priority 84) in the request pipeline.

+# v1.1 Plan — Public Rate-Limited Access
+
+## Goal
+
+Allow preauth to provide rate-limited unauthenticated access to select
+public paths. Authenticated users bypass the public rate limiter entirely.
+Non-public paths continue to trigger the existing auth flow.
+
+**Practical example:** Allow anyone to visit
+`https://code.devgnome.com/public/*` in Gitea, but limit them to 100
+requests/minute and 500 requests/hour per IP.
+
+---
+
+## How It Works
+
+When a request arrives and the user is **not authenticated** (no valid
+cookie or IP session), the new `PublicAccessListener` checks whether the
+request path matches any configured public path pattern. If it does:
+
+1. The public rate limiter is consulted (separate from the login limiter).
+2. If within limits → `200 OK` (no `Remote-User` header). Caddy proxies
+   to the backend.
+3. If over limits → `429 Too Many Requests` with a `Retry-After` header.
+
+If the path does **not** match any public pattern, the request falls
+through to the existing auth flow (RejectListener → LoginListener →
+InterceptListener → login page or redirect).
+
+**Authenticated users** never reach the `PublicAccessListener` because
+`AcceptListener` (priority 99) or `AllowListener` (priority 88) will have
+already set a `200` response before `PublicAccessListener` runs.
+
+### Listener Priority Chain (updated)
+
+```
+Priority  Listener               Action
+────────  ─────────────────      ──────────────────────────────────────
+99        AcceptListener          Valid cookie → 200 OK
+88        AllowListener           Valid IP session → 200 OK
+84        PublicAccessListener    Public path + rate limit check → 200 or 429
+77        RejectListener          Login rate-limit gate → 418/429
+66        LoginListener           Login attempt handling
+55        InterceptListener       Fallback → redirect or login page
+```
+
+`PublicAccessListener` runs at priority 84 — after auth checks (so
+authenticated users bypass it) but before `RejectListener` (so public
+access is not subject to the login rate limiter).
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `PUBLIC_PATHS` | `''` (disabled) | Comma-separated path patterns. Wildcard `*` supported. |
+| `PUBLIC_BURST_COUNT` | `100` | Max requests per burst window per IP |
+| `PUBLIC_BURST_TIME` | `60` | Burst window in seconds |
+| `PUBLIC_UPPER_COUNT` | `500` | Max requests per sustained window per IP |
+| `PUBLIC_UPPER_TIME` | `3600` | Sustained window in seconds (1 hour) |
+
+**When `PUBLIC_PATHS` is empty (default), the feature is completely
+disabled and has zero effect on existing behavior.**
+
+### Path Pattern Syntax
+
+- Patterns are matched against the request **path** only (query string
+  is ignored).
+- Patterns must start with `/`.
+- `*` matches any sequence of characters within a single path segment
+  (not crossing `/`).
+- `**` matches any sequence of characters including `/` (crosses path
+  segments).
+- No other regex or special characters are supported — patterns are
+  literal strings with `*` wildcards.
+
+**Examples:**
+
+| Pattern | Matches | Does NOT match |
+|---------|---------|----------------|
+| `/public` | `/public` | `/public/`, `/public/xyz` |
+| `/public/*` | `/public/anything`, `/public/xyz` | `/public`, `/public/a/b` |
+| `/public/**` | `/public/anything`, `/public/a/b/c` | `/public` |
+| `/public` | `/public` | `/public/xyz` |
+| `/api/*/status` | `/api/v1/status`, `/api/v2/status` | `/api/v1/v2/status` |
+
+### Domain-Scoped Paths (when using auth subdomain)
+
+When `SUBDOMAIN_REDIRECT=true` and `AUTH_SUBDOMAIN` is set, the user may
+want public paths on specific subdomains only. In this case, `PUBLIC_PATHS`
+can optionally include a domain prefix:
+
+```
+PUBLIC_PATHS='code.devgnome.com/public/**,auth.devgnome.com/health'
+```
+
+When no domain prefix is given, the path matches on **any** host. When a
+domain prefix is given, it only matches on that specific host.
+
+When **not** using an auth subdomain (the common case), paths without a
+domain prefix match on all hosts. Domain-prefixed entries can still be
+used to restrict to specific hosts.
+
+### Rate Limiter
+
+A new `public_limiter` compound rate limiter is added to
+`rate_limiter.yaml`, following the same pattern as the existing
+`login_limiter`. It uses a `publicRateLimitCache` pool (APCu in
+production, array adapter in tests).

+
+## Implementation Order
+
+1. **`PublicPathMatcher`** — Pure path matching logic, no dependencies.
+   Parse the `PUBLIC_PATHS` string into pattern entries (each with
+   optional host + path pattern). Convert `*`/`**` wildcards to regex.
+   Match a given (host, path) against all patterns.
+
+2. **Config** — Add env vars to `services.yaml`, add rate limiter to
+   `rate_limiter.yaml`, add cache pool to `cache.yaml` + test cache.
+
+3. **`ConfigBag`** — Add `publicPaths()` returning the raw string (the
+   `PublicPathMatcher` does the parsing). Or add the `PublicPathMatcher`
+   as a service that receives the raw string via autowiring.
+
+4. **`PublicAccessListener`** — Inject `PublicPathMatcherInterface`,
+   `RateLimiterFactoryInterface` (target `public_limiter`), and
+   `ConfigBag`. On `RequestEvent`:
+   - If no public paths configured → return immediately.
+   - If request already has a response → return (auth listeners ran first).
+   - Check if (host, path) matches any public pattern.
+   - If no match → return (fall through to auth flow).
+   - If match → consume(1) from public rate limiter.
+   - If over limit → set 429 response with `Retry-After`.
+   - If within limit → set 200 response (plain text, no `Remote-User`).
+
+5. **Tests** — Unit tests for `PublicPathMatcher` and
+   `PublicAccessListener`, functional tests for the full flow.
+
+6. **Documentation** — Update all docs.
+
+7. **Lint + Test** — Run php-cs-fixer + phpunit, fix any issues.
+
+8. **Commit + Push + PR.**
+

+
+## Key Design Decisions
+
+### Why priority 84?
+
+- Must be **after** `AcceptListener` (99) and `AllowListener` (88) so
+  authenticated users never hit the public rate limiter.
+- Must be **before** `RejectListener` (77) so public access is not
+  blocked by the login attempt rate limiter.
+- Must be **before** `LoginListener` (66) so login attempts on public
+  paths are still processed (though this is an edge case — a login
+  attempt on a public path would set a response in `PublicAccessListener`
+  before `LoginListener` runs, which is correct: you don't need to login
+  to access a public path).
+
+  **Wait — actually this is a problem.** If someone sends an `X-Preauth`
+  header on a public path, `PublicAccessListener` would return 200 before
+  `LoginListener` can process the login. But that's actually fine — if the
+  path is public, they don't need to log in. If they want to authenticate,
+  they can visit a non-public path.
+
+  **Revised approach:** `PublicAccessListener` should only return 200 for
+  **GET/HEAD** requests to public paths, or all methods? For a gate like
+  this, all methods should be allowed on public paths — the backend
+  service (e.g., Gitea) handles its own authorization for write
+  operations.
+
+### Why a separate rate limiter?
+
+The existing `login_limiter` rate limits **login attempts** (failures).
+The public rate limiter rate limits **all requests** to public paths.
+They serve different purposes and need independent counters. Using the
+same limiter would mean public traffic could exhaust the login attempt
+budget, or vice versa.
+
+### Why `Retry-After` header?
+
+It's a standard HTTP header (RFC 7231) that tells clients how long to
+wait before retrying. Legitimate clients (browsers, API consumers) and
+crawlers respect it.
+
+### Why no `Remote-User` header on public responses?
+
+The `Remote-User` header tells the backend who the authenticated user
+is. For public access, there is no authenticated user. Sending
+`Remote-User: public` or similar could confuse the backend. The backend
+should treat requests without `Remote-User` as anonymous.
+
+### Path matching: query strings
+
+Query strings are **ignored** for path matching. `/public?foo=bar`
+matches the pattern `/public`. This is implemented by using
+`$request->getPathInfo()` which returns the path without query string.
+
+---
+
+## Edge Cases
+
+1. **Empty `PUBLIC_PATHS`** → Feature disabled, zero impact on existing
+   behavior. All tests pass unchanged.
+
+2. **Authenticated user visits a public path** → `AcceptListener` or
+   `AllowListener` returns 200 before `PublicAccessListener` runs. The
+   public rate limiter is never consulted.
+
+3. **Public path rate limit exceeded** → 429 with `Retry-After` header.
+   The response uses the error template (same as login rate limit) but
+   always with 429 status (never teapot — teapot is for login failures).
+
+4. **Non-public path on a host that has some public paths** → Falls
+   through to the normal auth flow. Login page or redirect.
+
+5. **`PUBLIC_PATHS` with whitespace** → Trimmed during parsing.
+   `PUBLIC_PATHS='/public, /api'` is equivalent to `/public,/api`.
+
+6. **Invalid patterns** (not starting with `/`) → Silently ignored
+   during parsing. Logged at debug level.
+
+7. **Login attempt on a public path** → `PublicAccessListener` returns
+   200 before `LoginListener` runs. This is correct behavior — if the
+   path is public, no login is needed.
+
+8. **Subdomain redirect mode + public paths** → If using an auth
+   subdomain, requests to the auth subdomain itself should never be
+   treated as public. The `PublicAccessListener` should skip requests
+   where `host === authSubdomain`.
+
+---
+
+## Test Strategy
+
+### Unit Tests — `PublicPathMatcherTest`
+
+- Empty string → no patterns → matches nothing
+- Single path `/public` → matches exact, not `/public/`
+- Wildcard `/public/*` → matches `/public/x`, not `/public`, not `/public/a/b`
+- Double wildcard `/public/**` → matches `/public/a/b/c`
+- Multiple patterns comma-separated
+- Domain-prefixed pattern `host.example.com/public/**`
+- Path without domain prefix matches any host
+- Whitespace trimming
+- Invalid patterns (no leading `/`) ignored
+- Case sensitivity (paths are case-sensitive, hosts are case-insensitive)
+
+### Unit Tests — `PublicAccessListenerTest`
+
+- No public paths configured → returns without setting response
+- Non-public path → returns without setting response
+- Public path, within rate limit → sets 200 response
+- Public path, rate limit exceeded → sets 429 response with Retry-After
+- Public path, response already set by earlier listener → returns
+- Auth subdomain request → skipped (even if path matches)
+- Uses `ListenerTestHelper` for mock rate limiters and collaborators
+
+### Functional Tests — `PublicAccessFlowTest`
+
+- Public path accessible without authentication → 200
+- Non-public path without auth → 401 (login page)
+- Rate limit enforcement: multiple requests exceed burst → 429
+- Authenticated user visits public path → 200 with Remote-User (bypasses public limiter)
+- 429 response includes Retry-After header
+- Query string ignored for path matching
+- Wildcard matching works end-to-end

+### Public Rate-Limited Access
+
+Preauth can provide rate-limited unauthenticated access to select public
+paths. This is useful for exposing public content (e.g., public repositories
+in Gitea) without requiring TOTP authentication, while protecting server
+resources from bot traffic.
+
+When `PUBLIC_PATHS` is configured, requests to matching paths from
+unauthenticated users are allowed through with a separate rate limiter.
+Authenticated users bypass the public rate limiter entirely.
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `PUBLIC_PATHS` | `''` (disabled) | Comma-separated path patterns. See below. |
+| `PUBLIC_BURST_COUNT` | `100` | Max requests per burst window per IP. |
+| `PUBLIC_BURST_TIME` | `60` | Burst window in seconds. |
+| `PUBLIC_UPPER_COUNT` | `500` | Max requests per sustained window per IP. |
+| `PUBLIC_UPPER_TIME` | `3600` | Sustained window in seconds (1 hour). |
+
+**Path pattern syntax:**
+
+- Patterns are matched against the request path only (query string ignored).
+- Patterns must start with `/`.
+- `*` matches one or more characters within a single path segment (not crossing `/`).
+- `**` matches zero or more characters including `/` (crosses path segments).
+- An optional host prefix can restrict a pattern to a specific host
+  (e.g., `code.example.com/public/**`).
+
+| Pattern | Matches | Does NOT match |
+|---------|---------|----------------|
+| `/public` | `/public` | `/public/`, `/public/repo` |
+| `/public/*` | `/public/repo` | `/public`, `/public/a/b` |
+| `/public/**` | `/public/repo`, `/public/a/b/c` | `/public` |
+| `host.com/api/**` | `host.com/api/v1/status` | `other.com/api/v1/status` |
+
+**Example:** Allow public access to Gitea's `/public/` paths:
+
+```env
+PUBLIC_PATHS=/public/**
+PUBLIC_BURST_COUNT=100
+PUBLIC_BURST_TIME=60
+PUBLIC_UPPER_COUNT=500
+PUBLIC_UPPER_TIME=3600
+```
+
+When a visitor exceeds the rate limit, they receive a `429 Too Many Requests`
+response with a `Retry-After` header. When within limits, they receive a
+`200 OK` response (with no `Remote-User` header). Authenticated users receive
+`200 OK` with their `Remote-User` header as normal.
