feat(02-01): dev-auth bypass middleware with production hard guard

- Create apps/api/src/auth/devBypass.ts: devAuthBypass() middleware with
  NODE_ENV=production hard guard as first conditional (T-02-01 mitigation)
- Exports DEV_USER const (id:1, color:COLOR_PALETTE[0]) for test reference
- Mount devAuthBypass() before oidcAuthMiddleware on /api/* in index.ts
- Add devBypass.test.ts: all three behavioral cases pass (production guard,
  unset-flag passthrough, active-injection)
- Add DEV_AUTH_BYPASS to .env.example with production warning comment
- Extend docs/deployment.md with dev-auth bypass section and production prohibition

/**
* Dev-auth bypass middleware (Pitfall 7 — T-02-01).
*
* Active ONLY when DEV_AUTH_BYPASS=true AND NODE_ENV !== 'production'.
* Injects a fixed dev user into the Hono context so the OIDC auth guard is effectively
* bypassed for local development WITHOUT live Authelia (D-14).
*
* Mount BEFORE oidcAuthMiddleware on /api/* in index.ts.
* When the bypass is inactive (wrong env, or NODE_ENV=production) the middleware is a
* pure no-op passthrough — production behaviour is unchanged.
*
* Context key: 'user' — matches the key read by downstream consumers (e.g. routes/me.ts
* calls getAuth(c) from @hono/oidc-auth; the events route will read c.get('user') directly).
* In dev bypass mode, c.get('user') returns DEV_USER. getAuth(c) is still called by me.ts
* but will return null because no OIDC session cookie is present; me.ts guards this with
* `if (!auth) return 401`. When using the bypass, consume c.get('user') directly in routes
* that need the user object (events route pattern in Plan 02).
*
* Security:
* - The FIRST conditional is always `NODE_ENV === 'production'` — checked before reading
* any other env var. This is the hard guard (T-02-01). Even if DEV_AUTH_BYPASS is
* accidentally set in production config, the guard fires and returns a no-op.
* - The production Docker Compose MUST NOT set DEV_AUTH_BYPASS. See docs/deployment.md.
* - This file must never be removed — the pattern is referenced by Plan 02 routes.
