policies: let terraform-git seed the gitea engine admin credential to KV (#102)
## Why

terraform-git now provisions the `gitea-vault-admin` site-admin bot and writes its generated password to `kv/service/vault/au/syd1/secret_backend/gitea/config` (as `admin_username` + `admin_password`) so the gitea secrets engine can consume it at creation time. The `woodpecker_terraform_git` / `terraform_git` identity has no write access to that KV path, so its apply would 403 without this grant.

The deployer that *reads* the seed already has read access via `policies/kv/service/vault/secret_backends_read.yaml` (`kv/data/service/vault/+/+/secret_backend/*`), so only the write side is added here.

## Change

- Add `policies/kv/service/vault/au/syd1/secret_backend/gitea/config_write.yaml` granting `create`/`read`/`update` on the gitea config KV path to the `terraform_git` approle and `woodpecker_terraform_git` k8s role.

## Ordering

Merge + apply this before the terraform-git `benvin/gitea-vault-admin` PR applies (which performs the write). Files are disjoint from the other gitea terraform-vault PRs (#100, #101).

terraform-vault

A repository to manage the configuration of Vault secret engines, authentication modes and policies.

Usage

  1. Initialize Terraform

Once you have your backend block configured, you need to initialize your Terraform working directory to configure the backend:

terraform init

This command initializes the backend and checks the connection to Consul. If everything is set up correctly, Terraform will start using Consul as its backend for storing the state.

  1. Common terraform init Errors

If you encounter errors while running terraform init, check the following:

Consul server is reachable: Make sure that the address is correct and that you can connect to the Consul server.
Consul token (if using ACLs): Verify that the token has the correct permissions to write to the specified path in the Consul KV store.
  1. Example Consul KV Structure

In Consul, the state file will be stored in the KV store under the specified path:

terraform/state

You can check the Consul KV store by accessing the Consul UI or using the consul kv command to see the stored Terraform state:

consul kv get terraform/state
