Nat 61f12e13aa SECURITY: Prevent any signed AWS SNS TopicARN from being accepted via webhooks
Any AWS account holder can subscribe their own SNS topic to a Discourse instance's /webhooks/aws and publish bounce notifications that AWS will sign legitimately. The forged bounces are processed against arbitrary user emails, bumping bounce_score and eventually triggering email revocation..

This fix adds a new `aws_sns_topic_arn_allowlist` site setting. Also hardens Jobs::ProcessSnsNotification against three issues:
- Binds bounces to (message_id, to_address) via find_by, so a legitimately-subscribed SNS publisher can no longer bounce arbitrary recipients we didn't send to.
- Skips duplicate notifications (next if email_log.bounced?) — AWS SNS delivers at-least-once.
- Uses update! instead of update_columns so EmailLog's existing before_save normalizes the bounce status code.

Also add a dashboard problem flags self-hosted admins whose SMTP looks like SES but who haven't set the allowlist yet.
