Add a fail-open Python sidecar (livekit/voice-limit-guard.py) that fronts
lk-jwt-service to enforce per-room voice participant caps for ALL Matrix
clients, not just Lotus Chat:
- lk-jwt-service moved to :8071 (systemd drop-in), guard owns :8070 so NPM's
existing /sfu/get + /get_token proxy targets are unchanged
- guard reads io.lotus.voice_limit.max_users (Synapse admin API, cached),
forwards to lk-jwt-service, and on an issued token decodes the LiveKit alias
+ requester, counts distinct Matrix users via LiveKit ListParticipants, and
returns 403 when the room is full (rejoins/extra devices allowed)
- any error fails open (returns upstream response) so calls never break
- systemd/voice-limit-guard.service; README documents ports, setup, revert
Also update landing page: voice limit is now server-enforced for all clients.

mute, Custom status message
