feat: Add SDK Protection Middleware against systematic enumeration

Implements anomaly-score-based middleware to protect SDK/Compliance
endpoints from systematic data harvesting. Includes 5 detection
mechanisms (diversity, burst, sequential enumeration, unusual hours,
multi-tenant), multi-window quota system, progressive throttling,
HMAC watermarking, and graceful Valkey fallback.

- backend/middleware/sdk_protection.py: Core middleware (~750 lines)
- Admin API endpoints for score management and tier configuration
- 14 new tests (all passing)
- MkDocs documentation with clear explanations
- Screen flow and middleware dashboard updates

+SDK Protection Middleware
+
+Schuetzt SDK-Endpunkte vor systematischer Enumeration durch
+Wettbewerber oder automatisierte Crawler. Erkennt Anomalien
+wie sequentielle Abfragen, hohe Kategorie-Diversitaet und
+Burst-Zugriffe auf gleiche Kategorien.
+
+Features:
+- Multi-Window Quota (Minute, Stunde, Tag, Monat)
+- Anomaly-Score mit progressivem Throttling
+- Diversity-Tracking (max verschiedene Kategorien/Stunde)
+- Burst-Detection (gleiche Kategorie in kurzem Zeitraum)
+- Sequential-Enumeration-Detection (alphabetisch sortierte Zugriffe)
+- Unusual-Hours Detection (0-5 Uhr UTC)
+- Multi-Tenant Detection (>3 Tenants/Stunde)
+- HMAC-basiertes Watermarking (X-BP-Trace)
+- Graceful Fallback auf In-Memory wenn Valkey nicht verfuegbar
+
+Usage:
