Conform directory and endorsement APIs to HTMLTrust draft #3

Description

@jt55401

Implement the spec-facing server cleanup from the security review.

Tasks:

  • Expose the normative directory API from the IETF draft, including discovery, content lookup/submission, key lookup, endorsements, and reputation endpoints.
  • Keep any current /api/... convenience endpoints only as compatibility wrappers if needed.
  • Use canonical unpadded Base64 for hashes and signatures.
  • Bind signatures to serialized origins, not bare hostnames.
  • Support the finalized claims hash contract for all direct child meta claims.
  • Implement structured endorsement signing and verification per the spec, not the old {contentHash}:{timestamp} binding.
  • Return spec-shaped errors and add conformance fixtures for directory exchanges.

Spec tracking issue: HTMLTrust/htmltrust-spec protocol cleanup after security review.
