Michael Suchacz 4b9880afa6 feat: add --chat-hook-allow-insecure to allow plain HTTP chat hook URLs (#27896)
Adds a hidden `--chat-hook-allow-insecure` /
`CODER_CHAT_HOOK_ALLOW_INSECURE` deployment option (default `false`)
that allows the chat lifecycle hook URL to use plain HTTP for any host.

The HTTPS requirement is enforced at two points, and the flag relaxes
both: `DeploymentValues.Validate()` rejects `http` hook URLs at startup,
and the hook dispatcher's `validateHookURL` allows `http` only for
loopback hosts. With the flag set, any-host `http` is accepted; the
host, fragment/userinfo, secret, and timeout checks are unchanged, and
non-http(s) schemes still fail. This removes the need for an HTTPS
reverse proxy when testing a hook consumer on a trusted network.

Following security review feedback, the flag description and docs state
that plain HTTP lets an on-path attacker forge hook responses (which
control agent execution), and `coder server` logs a startup warning
(with a redacted hook URL) when hooks run over plain HTTP.

Docs, generated API types, and the server config golden are updated
accordingly.
