refactor(ssh): restructure inventory and modularize helper logic

Relocate SSH inventory and rbw socket wiring from `modules/lib/` to
dedicated `modules/ssh/` modules to improve logical grouping.

- Move `ssh-inventory.nix` to `modules/ssh/inventory.nix`.
- Move `rbw-ssh-socket.nix` to `modules/ssh/rbw.nix`.
- Relocate `users-merge.nix` logic into `modules/system/users.nix` to
  reduce dependency on generic library modules.
- Update `docs/conventions.md` to reflect new module paths.
- Refactor `modules/deploy/navi.nix` to use a local helper for
  generating Navi hive configurations.
- Add Pi5 specific Niri KDL configuration snippets.

-A key is just a cryptographic identity — it's not bound to a host or a machine account name. The model is **one key per user account**: each catalog account (`olivier`, `server`, `builder`) has its own keypair in `modules/lib/ssh-inventory.nix`, regardless of which machine that account runs on. Concretely: when `olivier@14900k` sshes to `server@r5500`, OpenSSH routes via a `Match user server` block (generated from `chiasson.ssh.outbound.rbw.extraIdentities`) → `IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_server.pub` (written from `users.server.publicKey`) to ask the rbw agent for the `server` private key; r5500's `server` `authorized_keys` holds the matching server pubkey. olivier's catalog default sets `extraIdentities = [ "server" "builder" ]` so `ssh <account>@<host>` Just Works for every catalog role. We also support `from="ip,cidr"` constraints per account to scope which source IPs may authenticate as it.

+This repo enforces "one key per user": every user has one ed25519 keypair, the private key in Bitwarden, the public key inline in `modules/ssh/inventory.nix`. On SSH connect:
 
 1. `~/.ssh/config` (managed by home-manager) sets `IdentityAgent SSH_AUTH_SOCK` and `IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519_<user>.pub` for every host block.
 2. OpenSSH reads the `.pub` file as a **filter** against the agent (OpenSSH 7.3+ trick — `.pub` as IdentityFile tells the agent "give me the private key matching this pub"), so even with multiple keys loaded, only the matching one is tried. This is why the old "too many auth failures" symptom is gone by construction.
