Dmitry VerkhoturovandUmputun f8ba38779b fix(api): require explicit ?site= in matchSiteID middleware
matchSiteID guarded most authenticated and admin routes with
`if siteID != "" && user.SiteID != siteID`. Dropping the ?site= query
parameter made the check no-op and any authenticated user passed the
middleware. Downstream handlers fell back to reading site from the JSON
body or just used the empty string, so on email/telegram subscribe
endpoints (which read site from body) a user authenticated to siteA
could perform actions targeting siteB without the cross-site guard
ever firing.

Require ?site= to be present and to match user.SiteID. Body-only site
flows are still supported provided the URL also carries the matching
?site= — both must agree, which removes the bypass and keeps the
declared site visible to the middleware.

Reproduction TestRest_matchSiteID enumerates four cases (matching,
mismatched, missing, empty). Existing test calls that relied on the
implicit pass had to add ?site=remark42 to the URL: the addComment
helper now derives the param from c.Locator.SiteID, picture upload
URL gets the param explicitly, and the email/telegram subscribe table
adds it to every endpoint. The negative cases that previously asserted
StatusBadRequest from the handler now correctly assert StatusForbidden
from the middleware.
