test(ingestion): /mcp's JWT validator and resource_metadata; narrow comments

PR #183 review (comment 15474):
- TestBuildMuxAnswers503ToAJWTOnMCPWhileTheIssuerIsUnresolved: building
  /mcp's middleware with a nil validator turns it red.
- TestBuildMuxMCP401CarriesResourceMetadataInWWWAuthenticate: building it
  with resourceMetadataURL "" turns it red.
- main.go, routes.go and the testMux comment now say exactly what is
  untested: main's restAuth fields and public map passed to buildMux, and
  ListenAndServe (hyperguild#182). Stale public-route list in the
  TestBuildMuxDoesNotWrapPublicRoutes comment corrected.
