Niklas Ye b7d296f6e9 Create the first administrator with a generated password kept in a Secret
The bootstrap hook created `admin` with no password, so the account could
only use its API key and could not sign in on the web UI or the TUI. It
also won the one-shot /api/bootstrap against whoever ran it by hand, and
failed with exit 1 when the Secret already existed, which fails the Helm
release.

The hook now generates a 32-character password, stores username, password
and api-key in the <release>-admin-key Secret, and reuses the stored
password on later runs, so recreating the database brings the same
account back. The password is written before the account is created, so a
crash in between cannot leave an administrator nobody has the password
for. When the server was bootstrapped by something else, it checks the
stored password against /api/login and removes only the password it
generated if that does not sign in, then exits cleanly. bootstrap.enabled:
false still removes the hook and its role.
