feat: complete GitOps migration, storage HA verification, and cluster fixes

Major accomplishments from comprehensive cluster review:

## Storage HA (answering "are volumes replicated?")
- Verified 3-node Longhorn HA: ALL 17 volumes have 3 replicas
- Fixed CLAUDE.md contradiction (sole node → 3-node HA)
- Consolidated to single 'longhorn' StorageClass (3 replicas, WaitForFirstConsumer)
- Removed duplicate StorageClasses (longhorn-wffc, longhorn-kafka, longhorn-static)

## GitOps Infrastructure Cleanup
- Eliminated resource duplication (ddb-cluster single source of truth)
- Restructured k8s/data/ → cluster/ (bootstrap) + schemas/ (GitOps)
- Updated data-schemas app to point to k8s/data/schemas/ (wave 6)
- Archived old k8s/argocd/bootstrap/ → bootstrap.archived/

## Bootstrap Dependencies Fixed
- Added 05-wait-for-databases.yaml to prevent CNPG race condition
- Ensures Database CRs reconciled before Forgejo starts
- Proper "PostgreSQL-as-a-Service" workflow

## Longhorn CSI Plugin Fixed
- Added patch-csi-tolerations-job.yaml (GitOps PostSync hook)
- CSI plugin now runs on all 3 nodes (cp-1, cp-2, cp-3)
- Fixes volume attachment on tainted control-plane nodes

## Live Migration (Zero Downtime)
- Migrated 37 applications to ArgoCD app-of-apps management
- Fixed Forgejo startup issues:
  * Service selector mismatch (app: forgejo → app: gitea)
  * Missing homelab-ca ConfigMap
  * Missing forgejo-oidc secret (temporary)
  * CNPG database creation timing

# Cluster bootstrap & CD — two scopes
The GitOps repo is hosted on the cluster's own Forgejo, so ArgoCD cannot pull it
until Forgejo exists. There are two distinct workflows — pick the one that
matches your situation.
```
Scope 1 — from scratch cold cluster, nothing running yet → full bootstrap
Scope 2 — iterating CD cluster + Forgejo + ArgoCD are up → just git push
```
---
## Scope 1 — Cluster from scratch (cold bootstrap)
Strict ordering, because each layer depends on the previous one existing.
```
Talos + Cilium CNI Terraform (nodes) — cluster reachable
Substrate cert-manager, ingress-nginx, reloader — Terraform helm_releases
Longhorn, ArgoCD — imperative install
Phase 0 (git-independent) CNPG + ddb-cluster + redis + Forgejo — manual, below
Seed git push repo into Forgejo
Phase 1 app-of-apps root — ArgoCD deploys the rest
```
Run every command from a local checkout with `KUBECONFIG` pointed at the cluster.
### Phase 0 — bootstrap Forgejo and its data plane (git-independent)
```bash
# 1. CNPG operator (public Helm) + its CRDs.
kubectl apply -f k8s/argocd/bootstrap/cnpg-operator.yaml
argocd app sync cnpg-operator
# CNPG ships CRDs in the chart's crds/ folder, which ArgoCD's helm-template does
# NOT install. If the ddb-cluster apply below fails with "no matches for kind
# Cluster", install them once:
# kubectl apply --server-side -f \
# https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudnative-pg/cloudnative-pg/release-1.24/releases/cnpg-1.24.1.yaml
# 2. Namespaces first. cicd MUST be labelled privileged (DinD/runner needs it);
# the Forgejo app deliberately does NOT create it.
kubectl create namespace ddb --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
kubectl create namespace cicd --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
kubectl label namespace cicd pod-security.kubernetes.io/enforce=privileged --overwrite
# 3. Postgres cluster + Forgejo database + Redis (raw manifests, local checkout).
kubectl apply -f k8s/data/ddb-cluster.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/data/forgejo-database.yaml
kubectl apply -f k8s/security/ci-cd/forgejo-redis.yaml
# 4. Copy the CNPG-generated app password into cicd (Secrets are ns-scoped).
kubectl get secret ddb-cluster-app -n ddb -o yaml \
| sed 's/namespace: ddb/namespace: cicd/' \
| kubectl apply -n cicd -f -
# 5. Forgejo (public Helm, values inlined — git-independent).
kubectl apply -f k8s/argocd/bootstrap/forgejo.yaml
argocd app sync forgejo
```
### Seed + Phase 1
```bash
# 6. Push this repo to the freshly-created Forgejo so Phase 1 has a source.
git remote add forgejo https://forgejo.riotpiao.com/riotpiao.com/homelab.git
git push forgejo main
# 7. (Optional) Cloudflared tunnel secret — if the SOPS CMP plugin is NOT yet
# wired up: create the cloudflared-token Secret manually before wave 8 syncs.
# Skip this step if the CMP plugin is already live and handling SOPS decryption.
kubectl create namespace cloudflared --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
sops -d k8s/applications/cloudflared/cloudflared-secrets.enc.yaml \
| yq '.cloudflared.tunnelToken' \
| kubectl create secret generic cloudflared-token -n cloudflared \
--from-literal=token=- --dry-run=client -o yaml | kubectl apply -f -
# Once the SOPS CMP plugin is deployed (Phase 1 wave 0), migrate this Secret
# into the plugin's script output and remove this manual step.
# 8. Deploy everything else from git — one sync brings up the whole cluster.
kubectl apply -f k8s/argocd/projects/homelab-project.yaml # AppProject
kubectl apply -k k8s/argocd/root # app-of-apps root
argocd app sync homelab-root
```
`homelab-root` renders every Application under `k8s/argocd/apps/` and syncs them
in sync-wave order (networking → storage/observability → logging → security →
data → messaging → applications).
---
## Scope 2 — Iterating CD (day-2, cluster already up)
The app-of-apps and its children already exist and reconcile from Forgejo. To
change anything, you do NOT re-run the bootstrap — you just push:
```bash
# edit manifests under k8s/**
git add -A && git commit -m "..."
git push # to Forgejo main (origin)
# ArgoCD auto-syncs (child apps have syncPolicy.automated); to force it:
argocd app sync homelab-root
```
- Adding a new service = add an Application manifest under `k8s/argocd/apps/`
and its manifests under the path it references, then push. The app-of-apps
picks it up on next sync.
- Changing a Helm value = edit the values file the Application points at
(`$values/...`), push.
- Forgejo itself is Phase-0 / bootstrap (manual sync only) — a bad CI commit
must not be able to break the system CI depends on.
---
## Notes / prerequisites
- **Secrets:** several values files (loki S3, grafana admin, authentik, vault)
expect secrets that helmfile used to inject via `--set`. Under ArgoCD these
come from the `*.enc.yaml` SOPS files via the ArgoCD SOPS plugin — confirm the
plugin is configured before syncing waves 23, or those charts render with
empty secrets.
- **Substrate** (cert-manager, ingress-nginx, reloader) is installed by Terraform
as bootstrap Helm releases, not ArgoCD. Cilium CNI, Longhorn, and ArgoCD
itself are cluster-bootstrap installs.
- **Single storage node:** only `talos-cp-1` runs workloads/storage, so stateful
services are single-instance (`ddb-cluster` = 1). See the repo `USAGE.md` and
root `CLAUDE.md` topology section.
