Audit fixes: batch recompute, negative-baseline percentages, key-ring persistence
ci / build-test (push) Successful in 1m17s

Three defects found reviewing the last few commits.

Deriving consumption on ingest made the batch reading endpoint quadratic. A
recompute rewrites a meter's entire consumption series, and POST
/api/v1/readings ran one per reading -- 500 readings for one meter meant 500
full rewrites. IngestByMeterAsync takes renormalize:false and the endpoint
normalizes each touched meter once after the batch.

Percentage change divided by a possibly negative baseline. A net-export meter
going from -100 to -150 exported half again as much and would have been
reported as "+50%", reading as more consumption. A non-positive baseline now
reports no basis rather than a confident lie.

The data-protection key ring had no persistent home outside Docker Compose. The
LXC installer now creates /var/lib/metervault/keys at 0700 -- the app would
otherwise create it under the default umask, leaving a key ring world-readable
-- and the Unraid template maps it, since without that every UI-entered secret
was lost whenever the container was recreated. README documents the variable
and the trust boundary: keys on disk protect against leaked database content,
not against an attacker who already has the host.
