Move the haproxy edge behind the external Traefik (#492)

The haproxy edge holds its own DMZ VIP, a second public entry point alongside
traefik-external that must be firewalled and DNS'd separately. Traefik can
front it with TLS passthrough, leaving haproxy's certs and backends untouched.

- Add a `traefik-external` Gateway: HTTP :80 plus Passthrough TLS :443.
- TLSRoute the 12 `fe_https.map` hostnames to haproxy:443; HTTPRoute 301s :80.
- Make the Service ClusterIP on 443 only, releasing 198.18.199.1.
- Drop `fe_http`, `be_letsencrypt` and `fe_http.map`; certs are DNS-01 only.

Client IP now reads as a Traefik pod — the Gateway provider cannot emit PROXY protocol to a TLSRoute backend. `sessionAffinity` goes too (it would pin Traefik pods, not clients); SRVNAME cookies keep persistence.

# External (DMZ) front for the haproxy edge on the traefik-external LB VIP
# 198.18.199.0. The :443 listener is TLS Passthrough: haproxy owns the three
# wildcard certs and terminates behind Traefik, so there are no certificateRefs
# here. Listener hostnames are deliberately unset and the routes carry the
# explicit hostname list instead; allowedRoutes Same keeps other namespaces off
# these listeners.
