fix(settings): inject channel_monitor & available_channels into SSR payload

Root cause: GetPublicSettingsForInjection used an inline struct that silently
drifted from dto.PublicSettings and omitted channel_monitor_enabled /
available_channels_enabled. On refresh window.__APP_CONFIG__ lacked these
keys, so cachedPublicSettings.available_channels_enabled resolved to
undefined and the opt-in sidebar entry (=== true) disappeared.

Backend: extract PublicSettingsInjectionPayload as a named type with all
feature-flag fields wired, and add a reflect-based drift test in the dto
package so forgetting a future flag fails CI instead of the browser.

Frontend: introduce utils/featureFlags.ts as the single registry for
public-settings-driven toggles, with explicit opt-in / opt-out modes that
encode the pre-load fallback. AppSidebar switches to makeSidebarFlag() so
adding a new switch only touches the registry.

+/**
+ * Feature flag registry — single source of truth for public-settings-driven
+ * feature switches used by the sidebar, routes, and views.
+ *
+ * ## Why this module exists
+ *
+ * `public settings` reach the frontend through two channels:
+ *
+ *   1. **SSR injection** — the backend embeds `window.__APP_CONFIG__` into the
+ *      HTML. `main.ts` calls `appStore.initFromInjectedConfig()` synchronously
+ *      before Vue mounts, so `cachedPublicSettings` is populated on first
+ *      render.
+ *   2. **Async API** — `App.vue` awaits `appStore.fetchPublicSettings()` on
+ *      mount as a fallback (used when injection is missing or stale).
+ *
+ * If the SSR injection struct forgets to include a feature flag field — the
+ * exact bug that hid the "可用渠道" menu after every refresh — the frontend
+ * reads `undefined` until the async call resolves. An opt-in flag written as
+ * `settings?.xxx_enabled === true` then evaluates to `false` and the menu
+ * disappears. An opt-out flag written as `settings?.xxx_enabled !== false`
+ * evaluates to `true` (menu stays) but will flicker off if the backend sends
+ * `false`.
+ *
+ * This module hides that `undefined` handling behind two explicit modes.
+ *
+ * ## Modes
+ *
+ *   - **`opt-out`** (default enabled) — menu visible when settings unloaded,
+ *     hidden only when the backend explicitly sends `false`. Use for features
+ *     that ship enabled by default (Channel Monitor, Payment).
+ *   - **`opt-in`**  (default disabled) — menu hidden when settings unloaded,
+ *     visible only when the backend explicitly sends `true`. Use for features
+ *     that ship disabled (Available Channels).
+ *
+ * For `opt-in` flags to render immediately on refresh, the backend **must**
+ * inject the field through `PublicSettingsInjectionPayload`. A drift test in
+ * `backend/internal/handler/dto/public_settings_injection_schema_test.go`
+ * catches omissions.
+ *
+ * ## Adding a new flag
+ *
+ *   1. Backend `service/domain_constants.go`  → `SettingKey<Name>Enabled`
+ *   2. Backend `service/settings_view.go`      → `PublicSettings` + `SystemSettings`
+ *   3. Backend `service/setting_service.go`    → `GetPublicSettings` / `UpdateSettings` /
+ *                                                 `GetAllSettings` / `InitDefaultSettings` /
+ *                                                 **`PublicSettingsInjectionPayload`**
+ *                                                 (the drift test enforces this)
+ *   4. Backend `handler/dto/settings.go`       → `PublicSettings` + `SystemSettings`
+ *   5. Backend `handler/setting_handler.go`    → handler response
+ *   6. Backend `handler/admin/setting_handler.go` → update request + audit diff
+ *   7. Frontend `types/index.ts`               → `PublicSettings` typings
+ *   8. Frontend `api/admin/settings.ts`        → admin DTO typings
+ *   9. **Frontend `utils/featureFlags.ts` (this file)** → register via `defineFlag`
+ *  10. Frontend `views/admin/SettingsView.vue` → Toggle UI + form defaults + save payload
+ *  11. Frontend `components/layout/AppSidebar.vue` → attach via `makeSidebarFlag`
+ *
+ * ## Usage
+ *
+ * ```ts
+ * import { FeatureFlags, makeSidebarFlag } from '@/utils/featureFlags'
+ *
+ * const flagAvailableChannels = makeSidebarFlag(FeatureFlags.availableChannels)
+ * // ...
+ * { path: '/available-channels', label: ..., featureFlag: flagAvailableChannels }
+ * ```
+ *
+ * `isFeatureFlagEnabled(flag)` returns the resolved boolean (`true` = show).
+ * `makeSidebarFlag(flag)` returns a `() => boolean | undefined` compatible with
+ * `AppSidebar.NavItem.featureFlag`, where `false` hides the menu entry.
