Resolves#1408.
A rule with match "METHOD" carries a comma-separated list of HTTP
methods in its value, e.g. "POST,PUT", and applies when the request
method is in that list. This makes it possible to leave GET public
while sending POST and PUT to auth, which rules could not express
before because both share the same path.
No new columns: the methods live in the existing rule value, so this
needs no migration and every existing rule keeps working unchanged.
The UI offers the ten registered methods. Blueprints and the API
accept any method token, so extension methods such as the WebDAV verbs
can be targeted too, and the UI preserves them when a rule set that
way is edited later.
isPathAllowed decodes the incoming request path (and Badger already sends
Go's decoded req.URL.Path), but compared it against the rule pattern as raw
text. isValidUrlGlobPattern rejects raw spaces and non-ASCII and only accepts
them percent-encoded, so a PATH rule such as `/my%20docs/*` or `/caf%C3%A9`
was stored as `my%20docs` / `caf%C3%A9` and compared against `my docs` /
`café`, and could therefore never match any request.
Run the pattern through the same decodeAndResolvePath normalisation as the
request path so both sides are compared in decoded form.

isValidUrlGlobPattern accepts characters like ( ) [ ] { } | . + ^ $ in PATH rule values, but isPathAllowed converted wildcard segments to regex without escaping them. A rule value such as /(api* produced an invalid regex and threw on every request to the resource, surfacing as a 500 from verifySession. Literal characters like . and + also changed matching semantics. isPathAllowed is extracted to server/lib/pathMatch.ts as a pure module, metacharacters are escaped before wildcard substitution, compiled segment regexes are cached, and the test suite now imports the real implementation instead of a stale copy, with added coverage for special characters.
