fix(configuration-database): resolve ConfigurationDatabase-012 — store inbound-API keys as HMAC-SHA256 hashes

Inbound-API bearer credentials are no longer persisted in plaintext. ApiKey now
holds a KeyHash (peppered HMAC-SHA256); the key is shown once at creation and
only its hash is stored. Lookup and validation hash the presented candidate.
Cross-module: Commons (ApiKey, ApiKeyHasher), ConfigurationDatabase (mapping +
HashApiKeyValue migration), InboundAPI (ApiKeyValidator), ManagementService
(key creation), CentralUI (ApiKeys.razor). Existing keys must be re-issued.
