/**
 * Runs on every request (see matcher). Two responsibilities:
 *
 * 1. CSP/nonce (all routes): generate a per-request base64 nonce with the Web Crypto
 *    API (Edge-safe — no node:crypto), expose it on the inbound `x-nonce` request
 *    header, and set a nonce-based Content-Security-Policy response header. Next.js
 *    auto-applies this nonce to its own framework <script> tags when the `x-nonce`
 *    request header is present; the root layout may also read it via `headers()` to
 *    nonce any manual inline scripts.
 *
 * 2. Optimistic edge gate (authed prefixes only): redirect anonymous users away from
 *    authed surfaces. Only checks for the *presence* of a session cookie — real
 *    session validation (and admin/role checks) happen in the route-group layouts.
