Validate package paths before database lookups

The wildcard package routes (/packages/{ecosystem}/*, /api/package/*, /api/vulns/*, /api/browse/*, /api/compare/*) only checked for an empty path before passing user input to GetPackageByEcosystemName and the enrichment service. Add validatePackagePath as a coarse first-line filter: reject null bytes, other control characters, and paths over 512 bytes. Wired into all five entry handlers immediately after the chi wildcard is read. This is the generic layer; ecosystem-specific name format rules (npm scoped name shape, Maven coordinate structure, etc.) can be added on top per #75. Fixes #75

-### Health Check
-
-`/health` returns a structured JSON report of subsystem health. HTTP 200 if all checks pass; 503 if any fail.
-
-```json
-{
-  "status": "ok",
-  "checks": {
-    "database": {"status": "ok"},
-    "storage":  {"status": "ok"}
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Failing checks include an `"error"` field. Storage failures also include a `"step"` field identifying which probe step failed (`write`, `size`, `read`, `verify`, `delete`). When the database check fails, the storage entry reports `{"status": "skipped"}` so the response always carries the same key set.
-
-Storage probe results are cached for `health.storage_probe_interval` (default 30s) to bound the cost of probing remote backends. A probe holds an internal mutex for up to 10 seconds (the hardcoded per-probe timeout), so `/health` is intended as a Kubernetes **readiness** probe rather than a liveness probe — a slow S3 round-trip should pull the pod from rotation, not restart it.

 ## Cooldown

 The cooldown feature hides package versions published too recently, giving the community time to spot malicious releases before they reach your projects. When a version is within its cooldown period, it's stripped from metadata responses so package managers won't install it.

 When upstream is unreachable and the cached entry is past its TTL, the proxy serves the stale cached copy with a `Warning: 110 - "Response is Stale"` header so clients can tell the data may be outdated.

-### Metadata size limit
-
-Upstream metadata responses are buffered in memory before being rewritten and served. `metadata_max_size` caps that buffer to protect against OOM from a misbehaving upstream. Some npm packages with thousands of versions (for example `renovate`) exceed the 100 MB default, so raise this if you see `metadata response exceeds size limit` in the logs.
