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.

-# The raw/ inbox
-
-`raw/` is an inbox: only unprocessed material sits there. Syncthing shares it
-with the machines you drop files from. (hyperguild#205, #208, #209)
-
-## What happens to a file you drop
-
-| You drop | Result |
-|---|---|
-| `raw/clip.md` (no folder, no `wing:`) | extracted and filed as a source in `wiki/web-clip/sources/`; its concepts and entities update the shared `wiki/concepts/` and `wiki/entities/` pages; the original moves to `raw/processed/<date>/`, so `raw/` is empty again |
-| `raw/<wing>/clip.md` or `wing: <wing>` in the frontmatter | the same, with the source in `wiki/<wing>/sources/`. The wing must already exist; a typo is parked, never created. This is your deliberate choice and is not second-guessed |
-| a note whose text matches the client-content pattern, with no folder | parked in `raw/needs-review/`, not extracted |
-| a folder or `wing:` naming an unknown, reserved or non-ASCII wing, or two disagreeing signals | parked in `raw/needs-review/` |
-| a note over the size cap, or one that cannot be archived | stays in `raw/`, reported once, not retried until it changes |
-| a note the model returned nothing usable for (no source page could be written) | fails: the note is kept in `raw/failed/` and the reason is in `log.md`; it is never archived as processed |
-
-Concepts and entities are shared across wings because their slug is the graph's
-identity. A source whose slug is taken gets a wing-qualified one (`notes-homelab`).
-
-## Parked notes
-
-`brain_pending` lists them with `queue: needs-review`, a proposed wing and the
-reason. To act on one: `brain_promote` / `brain_reject` (pass `queue` when the
-same name also sits in the inbox), or move the file into `raw/<wing>/` to have it
-extracted. Parked pdf/txt files are listed but can only be moved or rejected.
-
-## Switching it on
-
-Routing is off by default (the retired layout is used). Set on the ingestion
-deployment:
-
-| Variable | Meaning |
-|---|---|
-| `INGEST_WING_ROUTING` | `1`/`true` enables the rules above; unset or `0`/`false` is off; any other value stops the server at startup |
-| `INGEST_DEFAULT_WING` | wing for unsignalled notes (default `web-clip`; must be a plain name, not `sources`/`concepts`/`entities`/`wiki`) |
-| `INGEST_CLIENT_BLOCK` | case-insensitive regexp over note text; a match parks an unsignalled note. Falls back to `CLAUDE_INGEST_CLIENT_BLOCK`. Matched after folding fullwidth letters, removing zero-width characters, normalising dashes and removing whitespace. Patterns with spaces, `\\s` or `\\b` work (whitespace is collapsed in one view and removed in another). It catches what it names and nothing else: leetspeak, punctuation splits (`a.c.m.e`), encodings and homoglyphs outside a small Cyrillic/Greek table are not caught. Large notes are checked in 1 MiB chunks |
-
-A bad default or pattern stops the server at startup. A wing created while the
-server runs is usable without a restart.
-
-## Known limits
-
-- The client filter works on 1 MiB chunks that overlap by 4 KiB. A match that can
-  span more than 4 KiB (crafted padding between two words of a multi-word
-  pattern, exactly at a chunk edge) is not guaranteed to be found; this affects
-  notes over 1 MiB only. On a 64 MiB note the check takes about ten seconds.
-- A pattern that matches the empty string (`.*`, `x*`) parks every unsignalled
-  note. That fails closed and only the operator's own configuration can do it.
-
-- A deliberate folder into a sensitive wing places the note there, and the shared
-  concept/entity pages then cite that source by title. Client material does not
-  belong in the brain at all; the pattern only guards the unsignalled lane.
-- A merge into a shared page refreshes `last_updated` and `origin` to the latest
-  ingest; the first wing's attribution is not kept.
-- A marker file (`<note>.processed`) is only written when a processed original
-  cannot be removed. One at least as new as its note holds the note (and says
-  so once); an older or future-dated one is ignored and removed.
