Subject: [PATCH] debug: temporarily route Jellyfin ingress through
 header-capture proxy

Adds a transparent nginx passthrough that logs auth-related request
headers (Authorization, X-Emby-Authorization, X-Emby-Token,
X-MediaBrowser-Token, User-Agent) to diagnose why the Filebar iOS app
gets 400s on /Users/AuthenticateByName against Jellyfin 12.0. All
traffic still reaches the real jellyfin Service unchanged. Revert the
Ingress backend and remove jellyfin-header-debug.yaml once captured.

+# Used to capture what the Filebar iOS app sends on /Users/AuthenticateByName
+# so we can see why Jellyfin 12.0 rejects it. Swap the jellyfin Ingress
+# backend to jellyfin-debug-proxy to route traffic through this, capture
+# logs, then swap back and delete this file/PR once done -- not meant to
+# stay in the cluster long-term.
