Josh Creek b8bcc1f3c1 feat(join-auth): add key-ID rotation to signed join authorisations
Prerequisite for wiring the allocator to publish rosters. The signing
key is a shared HMAC secret mounted into both the allocator and the
allocated game server; without a key ID, rotating it would invalidate
every authorisation already issued for an in-flight match, because a
server holding only the new key cannot verify a token signed with the
old one.

Add KeyID to JoinAuthorisation and append it to the canonical claim
bytes, so it is covered by the signature and cannot be repointed at a
different key than the one that actually signed. Allocated servers now
hold a set of currently-valid keys and select by ID: a rotation
publishes the new key alongside the old, and the old is dropped once no
live match can still reference it.

The key file becomes a JSON map of key ID to base64 key. A file of raw
key bytes is still accepted as a single key under the empty ID, which is
what an unrotated deployment and the kind fixture use.

Game/scripts/match_net.gd builds the canonical bytes independently, so
it changes in lockstep; the cross-language golden token in
test_match_net.gd is regenerated from the Go implementation and now
carries a key ID. Added tests cover accepting either key mid-rotation,
rejecting a retired key ID, and rejecting a token whose key ID was
swapped to name a key the server does hold.

Go suite and 223 Godot tests pass.
