octoturge a5a760b24a Add daily Coder token auto-rotation workflow
This Coder deployment caps API token lifetime at 168h (7 days), so
rather than raising that cap deployment-wide, add
.gitea/workflows/rotate-coder-token.yml: runs daily, mints a new 168h
coder token, PUTs it into this repo's CODER_SESSION_TOKEN secret via
Gitea's actions/secrets API (confirmed against the live instance's
swagger.v1.json - PUT /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/secrets/{name} with
{"data": "..."}), then deletes the token(s) it replaced. Old token isn't
touched until the new one is confirmed live, so a failed run fails safe.

Needs a one-time GITEA_ROTATION_TOKEN secret (a Gitea PAT with
write:repository scope, no expiration) so the workflow can write to its
own repo's secrets going forward - documented in README. After that,
CODER_SESSION_TOKEN (used by coder-templates.yml) never needs manual
attention again.

name: Rotate Coder API Token
# Keeps the CODER_SESSION_TOKEN secret (used by coder-templates.yml) alive
# forever without anyone needing to remember to refresh it. This Coder
# deployment caps token lifetime at 168h (7 days), so this runs daily,
# mints a fresh 168h token, writes it back into this repo's
# CODER_SESSION_TOKEN secret via the Gitea API, then deletes the token(s)
# it replaced.
#
# One-time bootstrap (see README "Auto-provisioning" section): a
# GITEA_ROTATION_TOKEN secret holding a Gitea personal access token
# (write:repository scope, no expiration) with permission to write this
# repo's Actions secrets. Nothing else needs to touch this ever again.
