Tobias GesellchenandClaude Opus 4.7 fbde4e136f fix(security): tighten zeroconf URL validation to literal local IPs
CodeQL re-fired three new go/request-forgery alerts (#134/135/136) on
the lines my previous validateZcBaseURL refactor introduced. The
previous validator accepted hostname-style hosts unchanged, so even
though the IP-class check ran when applicable, u.String() at the call
sites still emitted the original tainted host into the request URL —
which is exactly what CodeQL traces.

Tighten validateZcBaseURL to:

* require the host to parse as a literal IP — DNS / mDNS hostnames
  are rejected (with a clear error explaining the caller should
  resolve to a private IP first); doing the lookup inside the
  validator would re-introduce the SSRF surface CodeQL is flagging,
  because malicious DNS could point a *.local name at a public host
  between the lookup and the request.
* require that IP to be loopback / RFC1918 private / IPv4-or-IPv6
  link-local. Anything else (global IPs in either family) is refused.
* rebuild the returned *url.URL from validated components — scheme
  (already checked), the validated IP literal joined with the
  original port, and the original path. Pre-existing query/fragment
  are stripped so callers attach their own ?action= cleanly. CodeQL
  recognises this fresh-construction pattern as taint sanitisation.

In practice this matches what SoundTouch speakers actually announce:
IP-based zeroconf URLs at port 8200 against an LAN address. The
existing PushCredentials_FullRoundTrip and FallbackOnGetInfoFailure
tests already exercise the loopback path through httptest.NewServer
and pass unchanged.

Adds TestValidateZcBaseURL covering 17 inputs — 9 accept (loopback,
private 10/172/192, link-local v4, IPv6 loopback, IPv6 link-local,
strips query) and 8 reject (public IPv4, public IPv6, hostname,
plain hostname, ftp/file schemes, empty host, unparseable) — to lock
the new contract in.
