vault: Vaultwarden reverse-proxy as the officer-vault sidecar

Transparent pass-through fronting a self-hosted Vaultwarden so the OffVault
(Bitwarden-SDK) app reaches it through the platform's per-app origin gate. True
out-of-process sidecar (officer-vault): it owns all Vaultwarden knowledge (URL,
paths, notifications WebSocket) on a random loopback port and registers via the
sidecar connector; the platform is a thin origin-gated forwarder that knows only
the sidecar's port. Never decrypts/parses/rewrites/logs bodies.

- sidecar/vault: HTTP + notifications-WS proxy to VAULTWARDEN_URL, /_health
- api/vault: sidecar-port discovery + thin forwarder + WS pipe + origin gate
- origin: OFFICER_VAULT_ORIGIN allow-listed, scoped to /api/vault
- mounted top-level (not protected) so the Bitwarden bearer token isn't 401'd
- protocol: vault:server event; ecosystem: officer-vault app
