The database key lives outside the state root; secret files are read redacted

The database key moves out of the state root to a per-user configuration directory outside every confinement grant and project root (default $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bridlewise/keys, 0700; a boot environment override), admitted by the confinement owner, with a re-key and migration tool for existing installs. A model reading a secret file (.env, *.pem, …) gets its values redacted with the keys and structure visible (no function lost); the credential vault later offers handles. Done by SEC-c and SEC-d.
