Phase 2 of the consul migration: expose the HTTP API (not just the UI) at consul.k8s.syd1.au.unkin.net, now rebased onto main post-#280 (ACLs enabled).
- Adds a consul-http ClusterIP service targeting the server pods on 8500 (API + UI share the port, so the UI stays reachable at /ui/)
- Repoints the consul and consul-svc HTTPRoutes from consul-ui:80 to consul-http:8500
- Documents ACL-authenticated access in apps/base/consul/README.md: token from kv/kubernetes/namespace/consul/default/bootstrap-acl-token (VSO-synced), X-Consul-Token curl and consul CLI usage, UI token login, and the prefer-vault-minted-tokens note
Verification post-merge (ACLs are live, so authenticated): CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN=$(vault kv get -field=token kv/kubernetes/namespace/consul/default/bootstrap-acl-token) && curl -H "X-Consul-Token: $CONSUL_HTTP_TOKEN" https://consul.k8s.syd1.au.unkin.net/v1/status/leader
Rollback: revert the HTTPRoute backends to consul-ui:80.

## Summary
- Adds `group: gateway.networking.k8s.io` and `kind: Gateway` to all `parentRefs` entries
- Adds `group: ""`, `kind: Service`, and `weight: 1` to all `backendRefs` entries
- Affects 9 HTTPRoute files across artifactapi, cattle-system, consul, kanidm, litellm, paperclip, puppet, and vault
## Why
ArgoCD diffs the desired manifest against the live Kubernetes object. The Gateway API controller defaults these fields when creating/updating objects, so the live state always has them — causing persistent OutOfSync for every HTTPRoute. Same root cause as #153 (certificateRefs).
## Test plan
- [ ] All affected ArgoCD applications show Synced after merge

## Summary
- Deploys HashiCorp Consul 1.22.7 using Helm chart 1.9.7 with 5 server replicas
- Configuration modelled on production consul: \`datacenter=au-syd1\`, \`connect=true\`, \`raft_multiplier=10\`, HTTP on 8500, GRPC on 8502, HTTPS disabled
- 5-replica server cluster with \`bootstrapExpect=5\`
- 10Gi cephrbd-fast-delete PVC per server pod
- Gateway API: HTTPS gateway + HTTPRoute (443→consul-consul-ui:80→8500) at \`consul.k8s.syd1.au.unkin.net\`
- PodDisruptionBudget patched from \`policy/v1beta1\` to \`policy/v1\` (k8s 1.25+ compatibility)
- ArgoCD platform ApplicationSet updated to include consul overlay path
- Clients disabled (server-only deployment)
- ConnectInject disabled (can be enabled later for service mesh)
## Requires
- PR #147 (artifactapi: add hashicorp/consul to docker immutable patterns) to be merged first
## Test plan
- [ ] Sandbox tested in \`sandbox-consul\`: all 5 server pods 1/1 Running, cluster formed
- [ ] After merge: ArgoCD syncs consul namespace
- [ ] Verify \`consul.k8s.syd1.au.unkin.net\` is accessible via Gateway
