The placeholder serves HTTP 200, so Cloudflare's edge will cache
it normally. Document the operator action (purge cache or set a
short-TTL Cache Rule) needed before recovery for longer outages,
so the edge doesn't keep serving the placeholder past recovery.
Surfaced by final code review of the feature branch.

Hetzner Webhosting L runs Apache with AllowOverride None on the
user docroot, so file-based .htaccess is silently ignored — directives
in public/.htaccess never applied. Confirmed via direct-origin tests:
neither Header, Rewrite, nor FilesMatch fired regardless of the file
being present and readable.
The only origin-side override path on this tier is konsoleH's per-
directory Serverkonfiguration UI, which writes to a separate Apache
config file outside the user's filesystem (and thus outside any
deploy pipeline).
Make the architecture honest:
- Delete public/.htaccess (dead code Apache never reads).
- Remove the "Copy .htaccess into dist" CI step (now a no-op).
- Update deploy.yml header comment to point at Cloudflare for headers.
- Update OPERATOR-CHECKLIST.md §1 with the three Webhosting-L gotchas:
port 222 for SSH, SFTP_PATH must match the actual vhost docroot
(default is bare public_html/), and AllowOverride None.
- Update §5 to reflect manual workflow_dispatch (no auto-deploy on
push) and 5-header expectation.
- Update README.md deploy section likewise.
Headers (HSTS, CSP, XFO, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy,
Permissions-Policy) are now owned by Cloudflare Transform Rules,
documented in OPERATOR-CHECKLIST.md §2.
