// Package middleware — apikey.go provides API key authentication for
// machine-to-machine endpoints (e.g., /api/patient-match).
//
// The middleware reads the X-Api-Key header and compares it against
// a configured expected value. It is applied only to /api/* routes
// via the route registration in main.go.
