Brummel 2c6062a53e refactor: drop /web/ URL prefix from browser routes
The /web/ prefix predated the /api/ split; today it just clutters every URL
without disambiguating anything. All 16 browser routes move to the apex
(/cases, /login, /magic, /events, /audio/...). The 6 /api/* routes are
unchanged. A new /->>/cases redirect closes the apex 404.

The open-redirect guard in magic.rs and case_actions.rs flips from a
positive whitelist (starts_with("/web/")) to a deny-list: same-origin path,
not protocol-relative, not under /api/, no \. The /api/ exclusion is now
load-bearing and covered by tests.

Pre-production: no transition redirects.

//! Attack-confirming tests for the global security-header layer.
//!
//! Each test simulates a threat the corresponding header is designed to
//! mitigate and asserts the header is actually present on the response.
//! The layer is composed in `doctate_server::with_security_headers`,
//! applied to every response by `create_router_with_state`.
