Aleksei Sviridkin 5af5962edf feat(apps): mark stateful-app storageClass fields as immutable
Annotate storageClass as immutable across every stateful app whose
chart exposes one — clickhouse, foundationdb, harbor, http-cache,
kafka (Kafka + ZooKeeper), kubernetes (top-level only), mariadb,
mongodb, nats, openbao, opensearch, postgres, qdrant, rabbitmq,
redis, vm-disk. Without coverage across the catalogue the UI would
render storageClass read-only on some apps and editable on others —
a worse mental model than uniform behaviour.

The annotation lands at the schema layer (CEL XValidation rule
'self == oldSelf' on values.schema.json / types.go / embedded
openAPISchema in cozyrds/<app>.yaml). The cozystack aggregated
apiserver does not yet evaluate CEL on application-backed resources;
that is tracked at cozystack/cozystack#2657. The UI
(cozystack/cozystack-ui#6) consumes the marker today.

The PVC-pinning argument is identical for every chart: Kubernetes
fixes a PVC's storageClassName at creation time, so editing this
field on an existing resource never migrated data. The schema
annotation makes that contract explicit.

kubernetes.nodeGroups[name].storageClass is intentionally NOT
annotated: the field is optional and undefaulted, so a strict
'self == oldSelf' rule would block any future attempt to set it on
an existing node group. A richer ratcheting form is needed there —
see docs/storage-immutability.md.

A refactor in pkg/registry/apps/application/rest.go extracts the
inline schema-build path into buildSpecSchema so it can be
unit-tested. Three regression tests in rest_spec_schema_test.go pin
the contract that x-kubernetes-validations survives the
v1->internal->structural conversion (loaded from the actual MariaDB
ApplicationDefinition fixture on disk, not a hand-edited mock).

Each per-app README gains a one-line blockquote pointing to a new
docs/storage-immutability.md that explains the contract and which
consumers enforce it today.

Requires cozystack/cozyvalues-gen with @immutable support — bump the
pre-commit pin in .github/workflows/pre-commit.yml once the release
exists.

# Managed Nginx-based HTTP Cache Service
The Nginx-based HTTP caching service is designed to optimize web traffic and enhance web application performance.
This service combines custom-built Nginx instances with HAProxy for efficient caching and load balancing.
## Deployment information
The Nginx instances include the following modules and features:
- VTS module for statistics
- Integration with ip2location
- Integration with ip2proxy
- Support for 51Degrees
- Cache purge functionality
HAproxy plays a vital role in this setup by directing incoming traffic to specific Nginx instances based on a consistent hash calculated from the URL. Each Nginx instance includes a Persistent Volume Claim (PVC) for storing cached content, ensuring fast and reliable access to frequently used resources.
## Deployment Details
The deployment architecture is illustrated in the diagram below:

## Known issues
- VTS module shows wrong upstream response time, [github.com/vozlt/nginx-module-vts#198](https://github.com/vozlt/nginx-module-vts/issues/198)
> `storageClass` is annotated as immutable in the chart schema — see [`docs/storage-immutability.md`](../../../docs/storage-immutability.md) for the contract and which consumers enforce it.

## Parameter examples and reference
### resources and resourcesPreset
`resources` sets explicit CPU and memory configurations for each replica.
When left empty, the preset defined in `resourcesPreset` is applied.
```yaml
resources:
cpu: 4000m
memory: 4Gi
```
`resourcesPreset` sets named CPU and memory configurations for each replica.
This setting is ignored if the corresponding `resources` value is set.
| Preset name | CPU | memory |
|-------------|--------|---------|
| `nano` | `250m` | `128Mi` |
| `micro` | `500m` | `256Mi` |
| `small` | `1` | `512Mi` |
| `medium` | `1` | `1Gi` |
| `large` | `2` | `2Gi` |
| `xlarge` | `4` | `4Gi` |
| `2xlarge` | `8` | `8Gi` |
### endpoints
`endpoints` is a flat list of IP addresses:
```yaml
endpoints:
- 10.100.3.1:80
- 10.100.3.11:80
- 10.100.3.2:80
- 10.100.3.12:80
