feat(bulwark): Gateway-API as an alternative to the Ingress
Group 3 of the #114 sweep. One route, one rule, at the root - and THREE EXPECTATIONS ABOUT THIS CHART DID NOT SURVIVE CONTACT WITH IT: - #114 says bulwark has TWO Ingress objects. It has ONE. keycloak has two. - #114's measured table lists bulwark under rewrite-target. It has no rewrite-target annotation and CANNOT have one: NEXT_PUBLIC_BASE_PATH is compiled into the bundle, so the application cannot be served under a sub-path, and stripping a prefix at the proxy would yield a page that loads and then fetches everything from the wrong place. Every occurrence of the string "rewrite-target" in this chart - values.yaml, the schema, the Ingress template - is an explanation of exactly that. A grep for the string finds the refutations and counts them as occurrences. - ci/run-httproute-match-test.sh said in its header that bulwark was the second rewrite-target chart and would meet the #118 prefix/redirect assurance when group 3 landed. Group 3 landed and it does not: with no URLRewrite on a prefix other than "/", the assurance's precondition is never met here. The header is corrected rather than left standing, and it now says freesailarr is the only chart the pairing applies to. So no redirect rule is added, and none is needed. WHAT THIS MODE DROPS, MEASURED ON THE LIVE OBJECT rather than inferred. On 2026-10-12 the live Ingress on webmail.bekemeyer-klein.de carried nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size: 25m supplied by the OPERATOR through ingress.annotations - values.yaml recommends exactly that value and explains why the chart cannot pick it, so the chart sets nothing and a reader of this repository alone would not find it. It is the single annotation this installation depends on, and the Gateway API has no body-size counterpart: implementation policy, not routing. Per decisions 1 and 2 of #114 it is NAMED, not rebuilt - in values.yaml, in the schema and in the Gateway branch of NOTES.txt, in this application's own terms: an attachment above the Gateway's default is rejected before Bulwark sees a byte, the 413 comes from the proxy, and it arrives after the user has written the mail and attached the file. CORRECTED CLAIM, the same one garage and calibre-web-automated needed: the Ingress template, the bulwark.publicUrl helper and the schema all stated that nothing outside the Ingress template FUNCTIONALLY reads ingress.domain. The HTTPRoute reads it, so the claim held only while both modes were off. All three now say so, and the route carries a required() of its own. bulwark.publicUrl follows the ACTIVE mode instead of always printing ingress.domain. The two differ exactly when httpRoute.hostnames is set, which is how a migration off the Ingress runs - and printing the old host there would hand the operator an OIDC redirect URI for the hostname being migrated away from, a failure that surfaces as a rejected login at the identity provider and says nothing about this chart. Minor: additive, defaults unchanged. Empty helm template diff against origin/main with ci/bulwark/test-values.yaml. Part of #114

Checked in both directions for this chart, and CORRECTED with Gitea #114: it used to say that nothing outside that template functionally reads ingress.domain, which the HTTPRoute now does. Switching the INGRESS off frees clusterIssuer; it frees domain only if httpRoute is off as well. What still holds is the reason - Bulwark derives its own public URL from the request origin and takes no base-URL variable - so a release with no routing object at all is complete without a domain.
