Adds an operator guide for the SFTP server: recommended
configuration, the path model, host keys on Unix and Windows, the
environment variable reference, session cleanup behaviour, IAM
policy requirements per SFTP operation, client compatibility
notes, multipart upload sizing and cleanup, and the log lines
worth alerting on.
Corrects documentation the platform change left stale. The module
overview and the UnsupportedPlatform error text still described
Windows as unsupported. A source comment referenced a document
that does not exist in the repository and now points at the new
guide. The changelog adds the two host-key reload variables
missing from its environment list, describes the banner variable
as the SSH identification string, and corrects the upload size
cap and compliance case count.
The session watchdog now selects its detection method per
platform. It previously probed kernel TCP state through a
Linux-only procfs path, so on macOS every healthy idle session
was killed within a minute, and on Windows the watchdog never
spawned at all, leaving wedged sessions with no cleanup. Linux
keeps its fast-kill watchdog unchanged. Other platforms get a
silence-only backstop that kills a session only at the
documented 30-minute idle ceiling.
The host-key loader now has a Windows arm. It loads OpenSSH
format host keys from the configured directory and logs a
one-time warning to restrict NTFS ACLs on the key directory,
the same operator-managed approach FTPS, WebDAV, KMS, and IAM
already use on Windows. Startup previously aborted with
UnsupportedPlatform because the Unix mode-bit permission check
has no Windows equivalent. tokio's io-uring feature is now
enabled only in Linux builds. io-uring is a Linux kernel
interface and enabling it unconditionally broke the Windows
build.

fix(security): add authorization check to ListRemoteTargetHandler
ListRemoteTargetHandler only verified that request credentials existed
but did not check whether the caller has replication or administrator
permissions. This allowed any authenticated user to list remote
replication target configuration, potentially leaking remote target
credentials (accessKey, secretKey, sessionToken).
Add validate_replication_admin_request() call with
GetBucketTargetAction, consistent with the other replication admin
handlers that already perform this check.

fix(security): add IAM authorization to FTP read/metadata/cwd handlers
The FTP frontend's get() (RETR), metadata() (SIZE/MDTM), and cwd()
(CWD) handlers dispatched directly to the storage backend without
calling authorize_operation(). This allowed any authenticated FTP user,
including those with explicit Deny policies, to read arbitrary objects
and probe bucket existence regardless of IAM policy.
Add authorize_operation() calls matching the pattern used by the
write-path handlers (put, del, list, rmd) and the WebDAV driver:
- get(): S3Action::GetObject
- metadata() for files: S3Action::HeadObject
- metadata() for directories: S3Action::HeadBucket
- cwd(): S3Action::HeadBucket
