feat(middleware): broaden HTTP header mutation authority

[pimlock]

Summary

Remove the request-only header write namespace and centralize middleware header mutation checks. This is the base of the #2691 stack and keeps the authority change separate from response processing.

Part of #2691

Changes

• Allow middleware to write permitted end-to-end request headers without an x-openshell-middleware- prefix.
• Route writes and removals through one atomic validator and applicator.
• Define request and response authority profiles with protected credential, routing, framing, connection, and security fields.
• Add focused tests for shared limits, atomicity, direction-specific protection, and unrestricted end-to-end fields.

Testing

• mise run pre-commit passes
• Unit tests added/updated
• E2E tests added/updated, not applicable to this isolated validator change
