Gotenberg has an SSRF deny-list bypass in IsPublicIP via IPv6 6to4 / NAT64 / site-local prefixes

### Summary

`IsPublicIP` in `pkg/gotenberg/outbound.go` incorrectly classifies IPv6 6to4 / NAT64 / deprecated site-local addresses as public IPs, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to reach internal destinations (e.g., cloud metadata services at `169.254.169.254`) via a single crafted DNS AAAA record. This is a variant of CVE-2026-44430 (modelcontextprotocol/registry).

### Details

`IsPublicIP` uses Go stdlib helpers (`IsLoopback`, `IsPrivate`, `IsLinkLocalUnicast`, etc.) to block internal IPs. However, these helpers do not recognize IPv6 prefixes that embed IPv4 addresses:

| Prefix | RFC | Tunnels to |
|--------|-----|-----------|
| `2002::/16` | RFC 3056 (6to4) | IPv4 in bits 16-47 |
| `64:ff9b::/96` | RFC 6052 (NAT64 well-known) | IPv4 in low 32 bits |
| `64:ff9b:1::/48` | RFC 8215 (NAT64 local-use) | IPv4 in low 32 bits |
| `fec0::/10` | RFC 3879 (deprecated site-local) | internal routing |

`addr.Unmap()` only handles `::ffff:0:0/96` (IPv4-mapped) and has no effect on these prefixes. On dual-stack or NAT64-enabled cloud hosts, the OS kernel transparently routes these addresses to their embedded internal IPv4 destinations.

Vulnerable code (`pkg/gotenberg/outbound.go` L53-69, commit `93d0103`):

```go
func IsPublicIP(addr netip.Addr) bool {
addr = addr.Unmap() // only handles ::ffff:x.x.x.x
switch {
case addr.IsLoopback(), addr.IsPrivate(),
addr.IsLinkLocalUnicast(), ...:
return false
}
return true // 6to4/NAT64/site-local incorrectly reaches here
}
```

### PoC
```
cd poc/
./build.sh # docker build (~30s)
./run.sh # docker run — exits with code 1 (bug detected)
```

Expected output: `IsPublicIP(2002:a9fe:a9fe::) = true` — the function returns true for 3 addresses that wrap 169.254.169.254 (AWS IMDS). Full test file available via GHSA private comment on request.

### Impact

An unauthenticated attacker controlling a DNS AAAA record can tunnel gotenberg's outbou
