Add a system-wide "Backend Mode" that disables user self-registration
and self-service while keeping admin panel and API gateway fully
functional. When enabled, only admin can log in; all user-facing
routes return 403.

Backend:
- New setting key `backend_mode_enabled` with atomic cached reads (60s TTL)
- BackendModeUserGuard middleware blocks non-admin authenticated routes
- BackendModeAuthGuard middleware blocks registration/password-reset auth routes
- Login/Login2FA/RefreshToken handlers reject non-admin when enabled
- TokenPairWithUser struct for role-aware token refresh
- 20 unit tests (middleware + service layer)

Frontend:
- Router guards redirect unauthenticated users to /login
- Admin toggle in Settings page
- Login page hides register link and footer in backend mode
- 9 unit tests for router guard logic
- i18n support (en/zh)
