Kevin Veen-Birkenbach cbfb096cdb Refactor web health checker & domain expectations (filter-based)
- Move all domain→expected-status mapping to filter `web_health_expectations`.
- Require explicit app selection via non-empty `group_names`; only those apps are included.
- Add `www_enabled` flag (wired via `WWW_REDIRECT_ENABLED`) to generate/force www.* → 301.
- Support `redirect_maps` to include manual redirects (sources forced to 301), independent of app selection.
- Aliases always 301; canonicals use per-key override or `server.status_codes.default`, else [200,302,301].
- Remove legacy fallbacks (`server.status_codes.home` / `landingpage`).
- Wire filter output into systemd ExecStart script as JSON expectations.
- Normalize various templates to use `to_json` and minor spacing fixes.
- Update app configs (e.g., YOURLS default=301; Confluence default=302; Bluesky web=405; MediaWiki/Confluence canonical/aliases).
- Constructor now uses `WWW_REDIRECT_ENABLED` for domain generation.

Tests:
- Add comprehensive unit tests for filter: selection by group, keyed/default codes, aliases, www handling, redirect_maps, input sanitization.
- Add unit tests for the standalone checker script (JSON parsing, OK/mismatch counting, sanitization).
