[management,client] Default to NetBird's upload service when nothing is configured

The previous commit made a peer with no destination — no MDM override, no URL
named by the caller, nothing published by its management server — refuse to
upload and keep the bundle local unless it was enrolled with NetBird's cloud.
That closed the reported data-boundary concern, but it broke the default for
everyone who uploads a bundle as part of their day: a self-hosted user opening
a support ticket got a refusal where the command used to work.

Product decision (NetBird's, not the reporter's): the knob to keep bundles
inside your own infrastructure is what this branch provides, and it is enough.
The default stays the service NetBird runs, self-hosted included. An admin who
needs the bundles to stay in-house configures the destination; until then the
everyday flow keeps working.

So ResolveUploadURL drops the cloud check, the sentinel error and the
managementURL argument, and never fails:

    MDM  >  explicitly named URL  >  published by management  >  NetBird's service

Nothing observable changes for a deployment that configures nothing, which also
removes two edge cases the fail-closed default had: a peer still enrolled on the
legacy api.wiretrustee.com host would have been classified self-hosted and
refused, and an upgrade would have silently stopped uploads for self-hosted
deployments relying on them. The privilege gate is unaffected — a host other
than the default one still requires a privileged caller, so pointing the CLI
somewhere other than what management published needs root.
