This PR add the `$NO_DNS_01` option (disabled by default) that removes the DNS ACME provider, and replaces the wildcard certificate by individual certificates obtained using the TLS ACME provider.
This option allows an instance to work without having to manage access tokens for the DNS provider. On the flip side, this means that a certificate can be requested for each subdomains. To limit the risk of DOS, the existence of the user/org corresponding to a subdomain is checked before requesting a cert, however, this limitation is not enough for an forge with a high number of users/orgs.

Hello 👋
since it affected my deployment of the pages server I started to look into the problem of the blank pages and think I found a solution for it:
1. There is no check if the file response is empty, neither in cache retrieval nor in writing of a cache. Also the provided method for checking for empty responses had a bug.
2. I identified the redirect response to be the issue here. There is a cache write with the full cache key (e. g. rawContent/user/repo|branch|route/index.html) happening in the handling of the redirect response. But the written body here is empty. In the triggered request from the redirect response the server then finds a cache item to the key and serves the empty body. A quick fix is the check for empty file responses mentioned in 1.
3. The decision to redirect the user comes quite far down in the upstream function. Before that happens a lot of stuff that may not be important since after the redirect response comes a new request anyway. Also, I suspect that this causes the caching problem because there is a request to the forge server and its error handling with some recursions happening before. I propose to move two of the redirects before "Preparing"
4. The recursion in the upstream function makes it difficult to understand what is actually happening. I added some more logging to have an easier time with that.
5. I changed the default behaviour to append a trailing slash to the path to true. In my tested scenarios it happened anyway. This way there is no recursion happening before the redirect.
I am not developing in go frequently and rarely contribute to open source -> so feedback of all kind is appreciated

A database bug in xorm.go prevents the pages-server from saving a
renewed certificate for a domain that already has one in the database.

I forgot to update the name of this function in the CI log so it looks like it's running the same test twice even though it's not.

- Currently if the canonical domain validations fails(either for
legitimate reasons or for bug reasons like the request to Gitea/Forgejo
failing) it will use main domain certificate, which in the case for
custom domains will warrant a security error as the certificate isn't
issued to the custom domain.
- This patch handles this situation more gracefully and instead only
disallow obtaining a certificate if the domain validation fails, so in
the case that a certificate still exists it can still be used even if
the canonical domain validation fails. There's a small side effect,
legitimate users that remove domains from `.domain` will still be able
to use the removed domain(as long as the DNS records exists) as long as
the certificate currently hold by pages-server isn't expired.
- Given the increased usage in custom domains that are resulting in
errors, I think it ways more than the side effect.
- In order to future-proof against future slowdowns of instances, add a retry mechanism to the domain validation function, such that it's more likely to succeed even if the instance is not responding.
- Refactor the code a bit and add some comments.
