Backlog §2.10: registration issued a live session and email_verified_at was
written but never read, so an unverified user had full access and there was no
switch to require verification.
Add REQUIRE_EMAIL_VERIFICATION (default false). When true:
- resolve_session_user returns None for a user whose email_verified_at is null —
the single read-side gate covering every authenticated request, incl. the
session minted at registration.
- login raises 403 ("email not verified") instead of issuing a useless token.
Default false on purpose: self-hosts without SMTP, and accounts created before
this gate existed (email_verified_at null), must not be locked out. Operators
enable it once mail works and accounts are verified. Documented in .env.example.
Tests: default-off keeps unverified accounts working; on → register's session
won't resolve (401), login is 403, and after verify-email both work. 75 passed.
