feat(hub): reCAPTCHA v2 on Register and Password Reset pages

Server-side verification module, CaptchaConfig in hub.toml,
captcha_site_key exposed via /v1/hub/info, useCaptcha() hook
in the SPA with stable DOM rendering (strength bar always present
to avoid Preact re-ordering the captcha widget). Native clients
(auth_key path) skip captcha. All 10 locales updated.
