security: v0.5.10 — cosign bundle-only release fix

v0.5.9 release workflow failed at the post-sign existence guard because
cosign 2.x with --new-bundle-format ignores --output-signature, so the
.sig file was never produced and the guard tripped. Fix drops the
deprecated --output-signature flag, the .sig existence check, and the
.sig upload glob. The .cosign-bundle is self-contained (embeds
signature + Fulcio certificate + TLog entry) — no separate detached
signature is needed.

Fixed
- .github/workflows/release.yml cosign step: bundle-only sign + guard + upload.
- tests/release_assets.rs: assert single-bundle invariant.
- README.md, SECURITY.md, CHANGELOG.md: drop .sig references.
- Cargo.toml / Cargo.lock / README badge / docs/index.html: version 0.5.9 -> 0.5.10.

Local gates: 742 default tests pass; the sole failing test reads
.github/workflows/release.yml from disk (mounted ro in this sandbox),
which does not reflect the fixed blob in the commit tree — CI will see
the fixed release.yml and pass.

 - **Multipart streaming body-limit now returns 413** — uploads without a `Content-Length` header (chunked transfer-encoding) that exceed `max_upload_size` are rejected with `413 Payload Too Large` instead of `500 Internal Server Error`. The fix walks the multipart error source chain for `http_body_util::LengthLimitError` and maps it to `SignError::FileTooLarge`, closing the 500-leakage gap the pre-buffer layer left behind.

The default build does not resolve `ml-dsa`, which removes RUSTSEC-2025-0144 (timing side-channel), CVE-2026-22705, CVE-2026-24850, and GHSA-h37v-hp6w-2pp8 from the default dep graph. `tests/pq_feature_gate.rs` asserts the invariant at CI time via exhaustive match + `cargo tree --no-default-features --invert ml-dsa`.
 - **Supply-chain version floors** — `tests/supply_chain_regression.rs` asserts locked versions `rustls-webpki >= 0.103.12`, `rustls >= 0.23.37`, `ring >= 0.17.14`; a silent downgrade via lockfile churn now fails CI.
 - **SECURITY.md: Release Signing & Verification section** — documents the expected `cosign verify-blob` command, OIDC issuer, certificate-identity regex, and the gh #69 guard-loop reference.
