Root-causes today's Gitea outage. The official Gitea Helm chart
(dl.gitea.com/charts, gitea/helm-gitea) always builds Gitea's own [database]
config directly from the plaintext postgresql.global.postgresql.auth.password
value, confirmed from templates/gitea/config.yaml:
{{- $_ := set .Values.gitea.config.database "PASSWD" .Values.postgresql.global.postgresql.auth.password -}}
`existingSecret` only affects the bundled postgresql subchart's own credential
provisioning -- it has no effect on what Gitea itself connects with. Removing
the plaintext field in the earlier Stage 1 "secret hygiene" commit made this
silently fall back to the chart's built-in default password ("gitea", 5
chars), which got re-baked into the persisted app.ini on every pod restart
regardless of what the live Postgres role's real password was -- hence the
repeating CrashLoopBackOff no amount of Postgres-side fixing could resolve.
Restores a plaintext password (the value already live on Postgres from this
incident's recovery), with a comment explaining why, so this doesn't get
"cleaned up" back into the same breakage later. Removes the now-nonfunctional
manifests/gitea/gitea-postgres-secret.sh and its .env.example entry. Getting
this fully off plaintext would need a Config Management Plugin or similar --
not attempted here.

Stage 1 of REFACTOR_PLAN.md. values/gitea.yaml and config/dashy/conf.yaml now
reference secrets injected at apply-time (gitea-postgres-secret.sh, .env) instead
of hardcoding a live DB password and weather API key in git. Both values must be
treated as compromised and rotated by the operator (see .env.example).
Also fixes authentik-ingress.yaml and traefik-dashboard-ingress.yaml, which
pointed at the internal-ca root ClusterIssuer instead of internal-ca-issuer,
the chained issuer every other internal Certificate uses -- causing untrusted-cert
warnings on the SSO login and Traefik dashboard.
Extends .gitignore for *.retry, .vault_pass*, kubeconfig patterns, and editor
swap files.
