🤖 feat: mux module — add per-workspace auth token for CSWSH protection (#728)

## Summary

Add per-workspace authentication token wiring to the Mux Coder module,
closing the last-mile deployment gap for cross-site WebSocket hijacking
(CSWSH) protection identified in coder/security#120.

## Background

When Mux runs as a Coder workspace app, it is accessible via Coder's
subdomain proxy (e.g., `mux--ws--user.apps.coder.com`). Without an auth
token, a malicious same-site origin (another user's workspace app on the
same `*.coder.com` domain) can hijack the WebSocket session and execute
arbitrary commands via the oRPC API.

The Mux application itself already implements:
- **Strict same-origin enforcement** for HTTP/CORS and WebSocket
upgrades (coder/mux#2418)
- **Auth token support** — the server reads `MUX_SERVER_AUTH_TOKEN` or
`--auth-token`, and the browser frontend extracts `?token=` from the URL
and persists it to localStorage

What was missing was module-level token generation and browser/backend
wiring.

## Implementation

- **`random_password.mux_auth_token`** generates a 64-character token
per module instance.
- **Backend wiring:** `run.sh` launches mux with a process-scoped
`MUX_SERVER_AUTH_TOKEN` environment variable.
- **Frontend wiring:** `coder_app.mux.url` includes `?token=<secret>` so
first launch from Coder passes the token to the browser for
bootstrap/persistence.

To avoid cross-instance breakage, this change intentionally does **not**
use a shared `coder_env` key. Multiple `coder/mux` module instances can
target the same `agent_id` (different `slug`/`port`), and a single
global env key would collide. Process-scoped env keeps each instance's
backend token aligned with its app URL token.

## Validation

- `terraform fmt -check -diff` in `registry/coder/modules/mux`
- `terraform test` in `registry/coder/modules/mux` (8 passed, 0 failed)
- Updated tests now verify the URL token value (not just prefix) and
verify the launch script sets `MUX_SERVER_AUTH_TOKEN` using the
generated token.
