beatzaplenty 2cca6a7dc0 Stage 1 base config/hardening toolset, applied and verified on pve1
Splits the repo into Stage 1 (base host config/hardening, applies to any
node) and Stage 2 (future HA/Ceph cluster, deferred - pve1's mini-PC
hardware can't support the assumed split-disk/multi-NIC layout).

Adds the Stage 1 toolset: firewall deploy, named admin user creation,
unattended security upgrades, subscription-nag removal (with an apt hook
so the patch survives package updates), and a read-only audit script.
Fixes switch-to-no-subscription-repo.sh, which only handled the legacy
.list format and silently no-op'd against PVE 9's deb822 .sources files;
it now removes enterprise sources outright rather than commenting them
out. Shared logic (root check, idempotent file writes, backups) factored
into scripts/lib/common.sh.

Ran the full sequence against pve1 via scripts/bootstrap.sh +
create-admin-user.sh; scripts/audit.sh confirms all checks pass.
