feat(security): merge Phase 4b security hardening

Complete security hardening implementation including HTTPS enforcement,
security headers, rate limiting, and comprehensive security test suite.

Key features:
- HTTPS enforcement with HSTS support
- Security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options)
- Rate limiting for all critical endpoints
- Enhanced email template security
- 87% test coverage with security-specific tests

Architect approval: 9.5/10
