Only allow existing streams on proxied go2rtc live paths

nginx proxies /live/mse/api/ws, /live/webrtc/api/ws and /api/go2rtc/webrtc
straight to go2rtc, which creates a new ad hoc stream from any src that is
not an existing stream name and starts the producer it describes. Any
authenticated user, including the built-in viewer role, could use this to
launch arbitrary go2rtc sources without going through the restricted-source
checks on PUT /go2rtc/streams.

The /auth subrequest now denies these paths unless every src names an
existing stream: a camera or its live stream, a go2rtc stream from the
config, or a stream go2rtc reports at runtime. This applies to every role,
and the runtime lookup fails closed when go2rtc cannot be reached.

Fixes GHSA-93xj-hg88-ffg7
