docs: Add deep dive on WireGuard mesh & OPA Network Policy

- Discovered in-kernel WireGuard overlay mesh (10.100.0.0/24) via wg0 interface

- Discovered true REST API endpoint for Network Policy (/policy/network) with OPA compilation

- Added Mermaid architecture and sequence diagrams for Zero-Trust ingress & mesh routing

- Upgraded Network Policy rating to 9.5/10 and overall score to 9.3/10

## 🔒 Deep Dive: WireGuard Mesh & OPA Network Policy
During architectural probing and kernel-level inspection via `exec_in_app`, we uncovered Cumin's internal networking engine:
### 1. Built-in WireGuard Mesh (`wg0`)
Every container deployed in a Cumin namespace is automatically attached to an internal **WireGuard overlay network (`10.100.0.0/24`)**:
* **`soc-backend`**: Private WireGuard IP `10.100.0.94`
* **`soc-gateway`**: Private WireGuard IP `10.100.0.100`
We verified that `soc-gateway` can communicate with `soc-backend` directly over `http://10.100.0.94:4000/health` with **zero exposure to the public internet**.
### 2. Architecture: Public Ingress vs. Private WireGuard Mesh

User->>Ingress: HTTPS Direct to soc-backend

OPA-->>User: 403 Forbidden / Dark Mesh
```
### 4. Real-time OPA Rego Policy Control via REST API
The policy can be read and updated programmatically via `https://api.cumin.dev/policy/network`:
```javascript
// Programmatically enforce Network Policy via Cumin REST API
await fetch("https://api.cumin.dev/policy/network", {
method: "PUT",
headers: {
"Authorization": `Bearer ${CUMIN_TOKEN}`,
"Content-Type": "application/json"
},
body: JSON.stringify({
policy: `package runtime
import rego.v1
# Enable/disable internal inter-container tunnels
default allow := false
allow if true
# Control public ingress to the group
default group_ingress := false
group_ingress if true
# Control outbound internet egress
egress_allow_cidr contains "0.0.0.0/0"`
})
});
```
> [!TIP]
> Setting an empty policy activates **Dark Mesh Mode**: all tunnels, ingress, and egress are severed instantly at the orchestrator layer.
