pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 fb70c83ae7 auth: survive a request that carries no origin
Signing in from a server-to-server client returned 500. originMiddleware leaves `origin`
undefined when a request has neither Origin nor Referer — exactly what such a client sends —
and signin.ts took it as a string, passed it into getPasskeysByUserIdAndOrigin, and Postgres
rejected the undefined parameter. It would have thrown on origin.startsWith() a few lines
later too.

It used to be unreachable: originValidationMiddleware rejected origin-less requests before
the handler ran, so the value was always a string by the time anything touched it. Turning
the origin checks off removed that gate without the code behind it ever having needed to
cope. This is the second thing that flag has surfaced rather than caused.

The two call sites want different answers, so they get different ones:

- signin normalises to ''. No passkey is registered against the empty origin, so an
  origin-less caller gets an empty list and falls through to password auth, which is what it
  is asking for.
- the four passkey routes now refuse with 400 "Passkey operations require an Origin header".
  WebAuthn is defined in terms of an origin — a passkey is registered against one and is only
  verifiable against the same one — so substituting '' there would be quietly wrong.

Also flips ALLOW_ANY_ORIGIN to default ON: the checks are off unless it is explicitly
'false'. A deliberate inversion of fail-closed, safe because of where this runs — the
perimeter is the tailnet, devices are admitted by hand, and every protected route still
requires a valid token. Verified both directions: unset lets a foreign origin through,
ALLOW_ANY_ORIGIN=false rejects it. The origin test suite pins the flag off, so it still
asserts the checks reject things rather than passing vacuously.
