deploy: fix nginx security headers dropped by add_header inheritance
Found while verifying the first real provision: none of the four security headers reached the browser on any HTML page. nginx's add_header inheritance is all-or-nothing — a location that sets any add_header of its own discards every header inherited from the server block. "/" resolves through try_files to `location = /index.html`, which sets Cache-Control, so HSTS, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options and Referrer-Policy were silently dropped exactly where they matter. /assets/ lost them the same way. Move the four into snippets/security-headers.conf and include it in the server block and in both locations that add a header of their own. Also from the same provision run: - ssl_stapling is dead config now that Let's Encrypt certificates carry no OCSP responder URL; it only logs a warning per cert on each reload; - README step 3 chmod'ed /etc/exo to 750 but never set its group, so the exo user could not traverse it and exo-deploy died on "cannot read /etc/exo/<app>.env"; - README step 7 dropped http-extras.conf into conf.d without disabling the same directives in Debian's stock nginx.conf, and nginx refuses to start on a duplicate gzip / server_tokens.
