anti 2f4f81e5de feat(api): rate-limit /auth/login + scaffold threat model ...

Adds slowapi two-bucket rate limit on /auth/login — 10 attempts per
5 minutes per-IP AND per-username, tripping either → 429. Per-IP
catches botnets hitting one account; per-username catches distributed
credential stuffing against one account. In-memory storage: dashboard
API is single-process, Redis is disproportionate for v1.

X-Forwarded-For is deliberately NOT trusted (spoofable); reverse-proxy
deployments get one shared bucket per proxy IP. Logged in the threat
model as accepted risk DA-08, to be revisited when a verified-proxy
config lands.

Also scaffolds development/THREAT_MODEL.md with STRIDE-per-element
methodology, system-context DFD, and Dashboard↔API as the first fully
worked component (7 sub-flows, ~50 threat entries). F1 Authn ships
with 3 threats mitigated: rate limit (new), uniform 401 (verified
already in place), bcrypt length clamp (verified already in place via
Pydantic max_length=72).
