fix(guard): https enforcement is nginx's layer + calibrate the prose validators (#599)

The 2026-07-19 outage root cause: enforce_https keyed off
environment==production, but nginx is the single entry point — the app
only ever sees proxy-HTTP, and the production NAS terminates no TLS at
all — so the moment the guard went active, https_enforcement blocked
the entire request stream. It is now hardcoded off at the guard-config
level (TLS and http->https redirects belong to nginx, not the app).
Same calibration pass for the two prose validators the flip armed: the
secret-exfil key pattern requires a real b64-shaped value so the
documented placeholder lines can't block, and the injection override
pattern requires the second-person 'your' so neutral engineering prose
about the guard subsystem passes.
