loadAndParse + LoadFromBytes ran os.ExpandEnv over the whole YAML before parse;
a bcrypt hash ($2a$10$...) is full of $word sequences that get replaced with
empty env values, silently corrupting web.password_hash on load (a silent
auth-integrity bug: $2a$10$N9qo8uL... -> "a0"). Remove both ExpandEnv calls;
parse raw bytes. The typed applyEnvOverrides path (FELHOM_WEB_PASSWORD_HASH) is
the sanctioned env mechanism and is unchanged. Tests + red-proof.
