Piece A + B of ADR 0056, completing the internal-CA work in ff01ada.
Selectable issuer. acme-ca is now a role two providers can satisfy: step-ca
(internal CA) or the new public-acme (a fact-only module, no container/listen)
that serves Let's Encrypt production. A mesh assigns one or the other to satisfy
route-proxy's `requires: acme-ca`.
One directory shape for both. A provider serves the ACME directory's parts the
way the mesh already models any reachable service -- an address (`at`), a `port`
and a `path` -- and route-proxy composes `https://<at>:<port><path>`. step-ca
lets the mesh fill `at` (its node) and `port` (its single listen) and serves only
`path`; public-acme, not being a mesh service, serves all three (overriding `at`
with the public host). Same composition either way.
Empty root means the system trust store. Both providers serve `root`: step-ca
the operator root PEM (settled per mesh), public-acme an empty string. route-proxy
writes it to the CA bundle file unconditionally; the binary now reads an empty
bundle as "the root is already trusted by the OS" and falls back to system roots
(examples/route-proxy/main.go, committed on the mesh-control ADR-0056 branch).
step-ca inits from the operator's root. The operator's root cert, root key and
root-key password are mounted at the smallstep entrypoint's default init paths
(/run/secrets/root_ca.crt, root_ca_key, root_ca_key_password) with the matching
DOCKER_STEPCA_INIT_*_FILE vars, so `step ca init` adopts the operator's root
instead of self-generating one -- the CA that signs is the CA route-proxy trusts.
Route names are labels, not FQDNs. Every routed module now contributes a `label`
(the leftmost subdomain) instead of a full public hostname; the node's public
domain composes the name. Apex (novox.be) is left as a full name -- composeName
has no empty-label/apex convention yet (mesh-control follow-up).

Add a `route` contribution (requires/contributes/binds) to every web app so
each gets a Host-routed public name via route-proxy, mirroring the
de-spiegel/only-office pattern:
- novox: gitea, keycloak, nextcloud, umami, invoicing, verdaccio, registry,
and mailu (single mail.novox.be -> 7080; admin/webmail/api ride that port).
- ace: grafana, sonarr, radarr, lidarr, bazarr, ombi, tautulli, jackett,
nodered, searxng, home-assistant, bookshelf, baserow.
Split photos so its three sites each get a name: photos keeps server +
admin-client (photos.novox.be), and new photos-eef (eef.novox.be) and
photos-filip (filip.novox.be) modules carry the client sites.
The production FQDN stays the literal default; a per-node .incus name is a
settings override applied where the mesh runs, not a manifest hardcoding.

Give each settings-config runtime a mergeable config file with its own id
(runtime-config) — the previous "config" collided with modules that already own a
config directory, so ten runtimes mounted a config file no resource declared. Point
each runtime's restart-on at it, so a settings change recreates the runtime and it
re-reads the new value (needs the mesh-host container restart-on fix on
issue/009-container-restart-on). Proven: runtime-restart-on-config e2e green.

Nineteen modules gain a broker-bound runtime container that serves the module's
tools under its own scoped account: bazarr, gitea, grafana, home-assistant,
icecast, influxdb, jackett, keycloak, mailu, nextcloud, nodered, nzbget, ombi,
photos, portainer, qbittorrent, searxng, tautulli, verdaccio.
Config is the assignment's, not the manifest's (ADR 0051): each client's fromEnv
overlays a settings-merged config file (MESH_<M>_CONFIG_FILE) over its env
fallbacks, so URL and credentials come from `settings set`, with the URL defaulting
to the server on the node. nextcloud and mailu also mount the docker socket for
their exec-based tools.
Proven in the mesh-lab: assigned-grafana green — settings deliver the URL and token,
the runtime reads the merged config and serves grafana's tools under the scoped
account, with nothing in the manifest. Two gaps this surfaced are filed as hq
issues 008 (a provider runtime's seal key) and 009 (a settings change does not
restart a container runtime).

searxng: a search tool — tools-only, a stateless search has nothing to observe.
icecast: status tool, emits stream.started/.stopped by diffing live mountpoints.
photos: status/albums/recent tools, emits item.added (immich-shaped API, coded
defensively since the stub ships a placeholder image — flagged in the code).
Typecheck; manifests parse.
Each module becomes modules/<name>/ holding module.json, with room for
the rest of what a module is — its tools, health checks, provisioning,
lifecycle — which the conversion from hal still has to bring across.
The flat <name>.json was only the resource-declaration half.
