Replaces the docker_container role with Quadlet systemd user units under ~/.config/containers/systemd, and moves state from /var/lib/caddy to ~/podman-data/caddy. Caddy is now the base unit and no longer lists its upstream networks. Each service registers itself by writing its own <name>.network unit plus a drop-in into caddy.container.d/, so adding or removing a service never means editing the Caddy playbook. Drop-ins are used rather than blockinfile because this playbook re-templates caddy.container on every run, which would wipe appended blocks. The play runs as the connecting user instead of using become: the rootless units belong to it, so the connection's PAM session is what makes systemctl --user work without setting XDG_RUNTIME_DIR. podman_user and the data directory are derived from facts, so the play fails loudly if that resolves to root. Two things that bit us and are worth keeping: - The privileged-port sysctl is applied inline with sysctl -w, not via a handler. Handlers only run at the end of the play, by which point Caddy has already failed to bind 80/443. - The Caddyfile is seeded with a minimal valid config. Caddy exits 1 with a bare "EOF" on an empty config file, so touching it into existence made the service crash-loop.
