feat(template-chart): the reference NetworkPolicy, on by default
The reference implementation for Gitea #5: one NetworkPolicy per workload, networkPolicy.enabled defaulting to true, plus the values block, the schema entry and the NOTES.txt section that go with it. The shape is taken from the two charts that already had one - valkey and stalwart - rather than invented, because they carry the expensive lessons: policyTypes only where there is something to restrict, namespaces always spelled out because an empty "from" allows everything, kubernetes.io/metadata.name so no foreign namespace needs labelling, POD ports and never NodePorts, egress by port because the object cannot express a hostname, and the probe path left open by default because the kubelet probes from the node's own IP. Three things are written down rather than assumed. The ingress source is measured on the cluster and is NOT what the issue body assumes: ingress-nginx is gone, the only IngressClass is traefik, and the controller is the DaemonSet rke2-traefik in kube-system - which also serves the Gateway API here, so one source covers both the Ingress and the HTTPRoute path. Egress stays coarse: with Canal (Flannel plus Calico) there is no FQDN rule, and Calico's GlobalNetworkSet would bind every chart to Calico, the same argument that kept implementation-specific objects out of #114. And a policy is only a boundary where the CNI enforces one - unenforced, it is accepted and filters nothing. All reasoning sits in Go template comments, not in "#" comments: those are part of the rendered object and travel into the cluster. Writing this header also found the second-order trap, which is now in the header itself - prose inside a template comment must not spell out the comment's own closing delimiter, or the parser ends the comment early and the remaining prose is emitted as manifest content. Part of #5
