gitea: fill repositories.json through the provisioner client, so an approved value lands at once (issue 1128)

The file was merged by the controller (merge, takes-config), which writes a
config change only on the node's next send (ADR 0348 §10): the operator's
Approve of the mesh-delivery repository set the value and nothing made it.
A plain template saying ${config:repositories} is filled by the provisioner
client on config-changed, and the node-engine reruns the run-once program
that names the file under restart-on.
