Final CCN-10 ratchet: three near-bar refactors + bar to 10

Closes out the v2.0 cyclomatic-complexity sweep by retiring the last
three CCN-over-10 functions and lowering CCN_MAX to its long-term
target (10, matching artistai's [lint.mccabe] max-complexity = 10).

radix_tree::find (header-only template, CCN 12 -> 7):
  Extracted match_root_terminus -- the exact-first-then-prefix scan on
  the root node for empty-segment paths ("/"). The descent loop is
  unchanged; only the leading early-return ladder is pulled out.

http_method::to_string (CCN 11 -> 2):
  Replaced the 10-arm switch with a constexpr std::array<string_view>
  indexed by the underlying enum value. The array size is tied to
  http_method::count_, so a future enum addition that forgets to
  extend the table fails compilation rather than silently returning
  an empty view. The constexpr noexcept contract is preserved.

normalize_path (file-scope static, CCN 11 -> 7):
  Extracted apply_normalized_segment -- per-segment dispatch ("" / "."
  skip / ".." pop / push). normalize_path is now the tokenize-and-
  rebuild loop without inline segment logic.

scripts/check-complexity.sh CCN_MAX 13 -> 10. The header comment is
updated to reflect that the bar is now stable: new offenders must be
brought below 10 at the same commit they are introduced; lifting
CCN_MAX is not allowed.

Final state summary (v2.0 branch):
* 14 v1 offenders -> 0 (largest was webserver::start at CCN 51,
  finalize_answer at 46, ip_representation ctor at 34).
* New helpers across the sweep: 40+ small functions, each <= 10 CCN.
* No new public API surface added; every helper lives on
  detail::webserver_impl, ip_representation private section,
  http_request_impl private section, or in anonymous-namespace
  file-scope statics. Public headers are unchanged from a consumer
  standpoint.
* Duplication gate (PMD CPD --minimum-tokens 100) was clean from
  commit 1 and remains so.

Verified locally: full `make check` (passes both gates + 48 unit tests
+ check-headers / hygiene / install-layout / examples / readme /
release-notes / doxygen).
