updates tailscale/corp#26435
Adds client support for sending audit logs to control via /machine/audit-log.
Specifically implements audit logging for user initiated disconnections.
This will require further work to optimize the peristant storage and exclusion
via build tags for mobile:

The context carries additional information about the actor, such as the
request reason, and is canceled when the actor is done.
Additionally, we implement three new ipn.Actor types that wrap other actors
to modify their behavior:
- WithRequestReason, which adds a request reason to the actor;
- WithoutClose, which narrows the actor's interface to prevent it from being
closed;
- WithPolicyChecks, which adds policy checks to the actor's CheckProfileAccess
method.

In this PR, we move the code that checks the AlwaysOn policy from ipnserver.actor to ipnauth.
It is intended to be used by ipnauth.Actor implementations, and we temporarily make it exported
while these implementations reside in ipnserver and in corp. We'll unexport it later.
We also update [ipnauth.Actor.CheckProfileAccess] to accept an auditLogger, which is called
to write details about the action to the audit log when required by the policy, and update
LocalBackend.EditPrefsAs to use an auditLogger that writes to the regular backend log.

The implementations define it to verify whether the actor has the requested access to a login profile.
Updates #14823

We update client/tailscale.LocalClient to allow specifying an optional Transport
(http.RoundTripper) for LocalAPI HTTP requests, and implement one that injects
an ipnauth.TestActor via request headers. We also add several functions and types
to make testing an ipn/ipnserver.Server possible (or at least easier).
We then use these updates to write basic tests for ipnserver.Server,
ensuring it works on non-Windows platforms and correctly sets and unsets
the LocalBackend's current user when a Windows user connects and disconnects.
We intentionally omit tests for switching between different OS users
and will add them in follow-up commits.

We add the ClientID() method to the ipnauth.Actor interface and updated ipnserver.actor to implement it.
This method returns a unique ID of the connected client if the actor represents one. It helps link a series
of interactions initiated by the client, such as when a notification needs to be sent back to a specific session,
rather than all active sessions, in response to a certain request.
We also add LocalBackend.WatchNotificationsAs and LocalBackend.StartLoginInteractiveAs methods,
which are like WatchNotifications and StartLoginInteractive but accept an additional parameter
specifying an ipnauth.Actor who initiates the operation. We store these actor identities in
watchSession.owner and LocalBackend.authActor, respectively,and implement LocalBackend.sendTo
and related helper methods to enable sending notifications to watchSessions associated with actors
(or, more broadly, identifiable recipients).
We then use the above to change who receives the BrowseToURL notifications:
- For user-initiated, interactive logins, the notification is delivered only to the user who initiated the
process. If the initiating actor represents a specific connected client, the URL notification is sent back
to the same LocalAPI client that called StartLoginInteractive. Otherwise, the notification is sent to all
clients connected as that user.
Currently, we only differentiate between users on Windows, as it is inherently a multi-user OS.
- In all other cases (e.g., node key expiration), we send the notification to all connected users.

Currently, we use PermitRead/PermitWrite/PermitCert permission flags to determine which operations are allowed for a LocalAPI client.
These checks are performed when localapi.Handler handles a request. Additionally, certain operations (e.g., changing the serve config)
requires the connected user to be a local admin. This approach is inherently racey and is subject to TOCTOU issues.
We consider it to be more critical on Windows environments, which are inherently multi-user, and therefore we prevent more than one
OS user from connecting and utilizing the LocalBackend at the same time. However, the same type of issues is also applicable to other
platforms when switching between profiles that have different OperatorUser values in ipn.Prefs.
We'd like to allow more than one Windows user to connect, but limit what they can see and do based on their access rights on the device
(e.g., an local admin or not) and to the currently active LoginProfile (e.g., owner/operator or not), while preventing TOCTOU issues on Windows
and other platforms. Therefore, we'd like to pass an actor from the LocalAPI to the LocalBackend to represent the user performing the operation.
The LocalBackend, or the profileManager down the line, will then check the actor's access rights to perform a given operation on the device
and against the current (and/or the target) profile.
This PR does not change the current permission model in any way, but it introduces the concept of an actor and includes some preparatory
work to pass it around. Temporarily, the ipnauth.Actor interface has methods like IsLocalSystem and IsLocalAdmin, which are only relevant
to the current permission model. It also lacks methods that will actually be used in the new model. We'll be adding these gradually in the next
PRs and removing the deprecated methods and the Permit* flags at the end of the transition.
