fix: all code review security findings

- CORS: replace open regex with explicit hostname allowlist + port whitelist
- Exception handler: only expose RuntimeException/InvalidArgumentException
  messages; PDOException and others return generic 'internal error'
- Auth::portalUrl(): allowlist-validate HTTP_HOST before using it in
  redirect URL — prevents open redirect via Host header injection
- _branding.php custom_css: strip HTML tags, js: URLs, @import, expression()
  instead of just </style> which was trivially bypassable
- accounts create: check accounts table as well as users for username
  uniqueness (TOCTOU fix); wrap user INSERT + provisioning in single
  transaction so rollback is atomic on failure
