seafile: CE -> Pro upgrade, ES, Caddy resumable-upload fix

Same-day-as-deploy upgrade: image swapped to seafileltd/seafile-pro-mc:13.0-latest, elasticsearch:8.15.0 added as new compose service for Pro's full-text search. Free Pro tier (<=3 users, no license). Existing data + users survived.

Also documented the Caddy patch stripping IETF resumable-upload headers (Upload-Draft-Interop-Version etc.) so the iOS Seafile Pro 4.0.2 app falls back to plain multipart upload; without it large uploads stalled and cancelled after ~60s.

# 125 — `seafile`
Seafile Community Edition 13.0 — exploratory deployment to evaluate as a possible [nextcloud (114)](114-nextcloud.md) replacement. Stood up empty on 2026-05-12; **no migration**, NC stays untouched.
Seafile **Pro** Edition 13.0 — exploratory deployment to evaluate as a possible [nextcloud (114)](114-nextcloud.md) replacement. Stood up on 2026-05-12, upgraded from CE → Pro the same day (free tier, ≤3 users). **No data migrated from NC**; NC stays untouched.
## At a glance
- **Hostname:** `seafile`
- **IP:** `192.168.8.185`
- **Privilege:** privileged (Debian 12, nesting + keyctl)
- **Resources:** 4 cores / 8 GiB RAM / 32 GiB rootfs / 1 GiB swap
- **Mounts:** `/mnt/library``/mnt/library` (Seafile storage under `/mnt/library/seafile/data`)
- **Mounts:** `/mnt/library``/mnt/library` (Seafile storage under `/mnt/library/seafile/data`, ES indices under `/mnt/library/seafile/elasticsearch`)
- **Public hostname:** [`files.hubris.network`](../infrastructure/dns.md) → [caddy (121)](121-caddy.md) → `192.168.8.185:80`
- **Reachable from:** LAN + Netbird mesh (no public ingress)
- **Edition:** Pro free tier (no `seafile-license.txt`, ≤3 users limit) — `api2/server-info/` returns `features: [seafile-basic, seafile-pro, client-sso-via-local-browser]`

## Changelog
### 2026-05-12 — CE → Pro upgrade
Image swapped to `seafileltd/seafile-pro-mc:13.0-latest`; added `elasticsearch:8.15.0` as a new service for Pro's full-text search. Free Pro tier (≤3 users, no license). MariaDB dump saved at `/mnt/library/seafile/backups/seafile-all-20260512-183001.sql.gz` (1.1 MB compressed) before the swap; recovery path is `gunzip … | mariadb -uroot` against a fresh CE container if needed. ES tuned for the LXC: `bootstrap.memory_lock=false`, no `ulimits.memlock`, 1 GiB JVM heap, 2 GiB container `mem_limit`. Host `vm.max_map_count` already at 1,048,576 (well above the 262,144 ES minimum). Existing data + JIT users (admin, dtoro) survived the migration; libraries intact (Iphone with 20 files / 53.1 MB carried through).
### 2026-05-12 — Caddy: strip IETF resumable-upload headers
Patched `files.hubris.network` block to drop `Upload-Draft-Interop-Version`, `Upload-Complete`, `Upload-Offset`, `Upload-Length` from the upstream-bound request, and bumped reverse_proxy timeouts (`read_timeout 1h`, `write_timeout 1h`). Reason: iOS Seafile Pro 4.0.2 negotiates resumable uploads via these headers; bundled fileserver doesn't speak the draft → uploads stalled ~60s and got cancelled. Stripping forces the client to fall back to plain multipart, which works.
### 2026-05-12 — initial deployment
LXC 125 created (privileged Debian 12, 4 c / 8 GiB / 32 GiB, IP `192.168.8.185`). Seafile CE 13.0 docker-compose stack at `/opt/seafile/`, storage on `/mnt/library/seafile/data`. Authentik OAuth provider + Application provisioned via `ak shell` (slug `seafile`, redirect URI `https://files.hubris.network/oauth/callback/`). Caddy site block added on LXC 121, dnsmasq entry on LXC 124. End-to-end OAuth handshake verified to the Authentik flow page. **No data migration** — exploratory deployment alongside Nextcloud.
