merge: tier 4 hardening batch 1 (#1 #2 #21)

#1 graceful shutdown on SIGINT/SIGTERM (axum with_graceful_shutdown).
#2 configurable DB pool size (--db-max-connections / DB_MAX_CONNECTIONS, default 5).
#21 audit vocabulary/term/authority creation atomically, attributing the acting
user; ~15 call sites threaded an AuditActor.

173 workspace tests; clippy + fmt clean.
