Kpa-clawbot bf2e721dd7 feat: auto-inject cache busters at server startup — eliminates merge conflicts (#481)
## Problem

Every PR that touches `public/` files requires manually bumping cache
buster timestamps in `index.html` (e.g. `?v=1775111407`). Since all PRs
change the same lines in the same file, this causes **constant merge
conflicts** — it's been the #1 source of unnecessary PR friction.

## Solution

Replace all hardcoded `?v=TIMESTAMP` values in `index.html` with a
`?v=__BUST__` placeholder. The Go server replaces `__BUST__` with the
current Unix timestamp **once at startup** when it reads `index.html`,
then serves the pre-processed HTML from memory.

Every server restart automatically picks up fresh cache busters — no
manual intervention needed.

## What changed

| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `public/index.html` | All `v=1775111407` → `v=__BUST__` (28
occurrences) |
| `cmd/server/main.go` | `spaHandler` reads index.html at init, replaces
`__BUST__` with Unix timestamp, serves from memory for `/`,
`/index.html`, and SPA fallback |
| `cmd/server/helpers_test.go` | New `TestSpaHandlerCacheBust` —
verifies placeholder replacement works for root, SPA fallback, and
direct `/index.html` requests. Also added tests for root `/` and
`/index.html` routes |
| `AGENTS.md` | Rule 3 updated: cache busters are now automatic, agents
should not manually edit them |

## Testing

- `go build ./...` — compiles cleanly
- `go test ./...` — all tests pass (including new cache-bust tests)
- `node test-frontend-helpers.js && node test-packet-filter.js && node
test-aging.js` — all frontend tests pass
- No hardcoded timestamps remain in `index.html`
