feat(deploy): a Railway deployment of the analysed cases, behind one credential
Three services -- Postgres, API, UI -- with the API on Railway's private network only, so the UI's /api proxy is the single public entry point and there is no CORS. The pipeline cannot run there. Nextflow shells out to `docker run` for VEP and bcftools, and Railway gives you a container, not a Docker daemon. Rather than leave a button that always fails, cases are annotated locally and copied up by scripts/seed-remote.sh, and PUBLIC_PIPELINE_ENABLED=false hides the analyse/score actions and the create-case form. DATABASE_IDLE_CONNECTIONS=false is what makes idling work. Railway decides a service is idle from its *outbound* traffic and sleeps it after ~5-10 minutes; a pooled database connection is outbound traffic, so SQLAlchemy's default pool would have kept the API awake and billable for ever. Setting it false switches to NullPool, which costs a connection per request -- nothing at demo traffic, the wrong trade under real load, hence the flag rather than a rewrite. BASIC_AUTH_USER / BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD put one shared credential in front of the site. Nothing deployed is patient data, so this stops the URL being wandered into rather than protecting anyone's privacy; unset, the site is open, which is what local development wants. Compared in constant time, and both halves of the credential are checked even when the first fails.
