Scooby HuskyandClaude Sonnet 5 4a0de188df GitLab cross-site replication Phase 1c (stage 2): live streaming replication
Adds externalClusters connectionParameters + replica.self/primary/source
to all four Cluster CRs (home pg-gitlab/pg-praefect, VPS
pg-gitlab/pg-praefect), turning last commit's recovery-only replicas
into real CNPG streaming replicas - exact pattern already proven for
pg-authentik. TLS certs copied cross-cluster manually (kubectl, not
git, same as every other cross-cluster secret in this plan).

Also adds pg-gitlab-app/pg-praefect-app password sync (PushSecret home
-> Vault -> ExternalSecret VPS, Merge policy) - CNPG-generated
passwords stay in sync via WAL replication but the K8s Secret OBJECTS
never resync on their own, same gap already closed for pg-authentik-app.

VPS's standalone clusters were already destroyed and recreated as
recovery-mode replicas in the prior commit (with the user's explicit
help running the classifier-blocked kubectl delete) - this commit turns
on the actual streaming replication on top of that.

Scooby HuskyandClaude Sonnet 5 83c06a888d GitLab cross-site replication Phase 1c (stage 1): VPS clusters as real replicas
Replaces VPS's independent standalone pg-gitlab (own initdb, own
root/Scooby test data - never meant to survive this, per the approved
plan) with a bootstrap.recovery replica of home's, matching the
pg-authentik precedent. New pg-praefect cluster on the VPS too (never
existed before - VPS ran Gitaly without Praefect).

Stage 1 of 2: recovery-only, no streaming replication config yet - that
needs this cluster's own CNPG-generated certs to exist first, which
only happens once CNPG actually creates the cluster. Stage 2 (next
commit) copies certs cross-cluster and adds externalClusters
connectionParameters + replica.self/primary/source to all four Cluster
CRs (home pg-gitlab/pg-praefect, VPS pg-gitlab/pg-praefect).

postgresql.parameters copied verbatim from home's manifests (must
match-or-exceed, confirmed live for pg-authentik). vps-minio-secret
created manually on the VPS (kubectl, not git - same as every other
cross-cluster secret in this plan) pointing at the VPS's own local
MinIO, which now holds home's pg-gitlab/pg-praefect base backups
(triggered manually via Backup CRs since neither had run yet).
