Preprod fires everything: every default rule applied to every device and
port, so a WiFi port that always sees errors was judged like a fiber
uplink where one error matters. WiFi errors are acceptable, fiber errors
are not, and one global threshold cannot say both.
An alert policy (new alert_policies table, migration 12) binds one rule
to a scope: groups plus device and port attribute matchers (ifType,
name/alias regexes, speed, site, role, profile, kind, the alert_down
bell). The highest priority decides, ignore beats alert on a tie, and a
policy's severity/threshold/for override the rule's (its threshold also
beats group overrides). With no policy nothing alerts: not metric rules,
not device_down/device_warning, not system alarms. Nothing is seeded, so
on upgrade open alerts without a binding close silently as retired.
The pure internal/alertpolicy package makes the decision; alert, reach
and the system alarms take a gate (Options.Policy, Options.Wants, a
system policy) that the app backs with a cache refreshed every 30 s and
invalidated on every API write, so policy edits apply live. New API:
/alert-policies CRUD, a viewer-level preview of what a scope covers, and
/alert-rules. The UI gets an Alert policies tab with templates and a
live preview; the port bell now says it only marks the port. Gate
scripts create the policies they need. DEVIATIONS row 41 and the
operations guide describe the new default.

- docs/MAINTAINABILITY.md: limits and architecture rules
- .golangci.yml (pinned v2.14.0) + file-size check; make lint runs first in every gate
- web/go.mod stops the Go tool from walking web/node_modules
- layering: Target -> internal/snmptarget, TableKey -> profile.Metric.TableKey; poller no longer imports discovery
