Route gitea-proxy directly to GKE LB IP, drop CF Access

CF Access was blocking /api/actions/* even with the correct service-token
headers — the gRPC Actions ping endpoint returns 403 through Cloudflare.
Direct connection to the GKE Network LB IP (34.31.145.131) bypasses CF
entirely. Verified /api/actions/ping returns 200 from the LB IP directly.
