Add SSH+kubectl remote fallback so the standby actually shows cluster/app health

Two real gaps found after testing the live standby platform:

1. modules/kubernetes.py's in-cluster client (load_incluster_config())
   can only ever work inside the real k8s pod. On the standby it silently
   returned K8S_AVAILABLE=False with zero fallback — Cluster, Containers-
   via-sites, and any cluster/app health data was just empty on that page,
   not erroring, so it was easy to miss. This holds even if the standby
   later runs as a pod on a *local* k3s on that server (per plan for the
   monitoring migration) — in-cluster config there would only ever see
   that local, unrelated cluster, never the main one.

   Fixed by adding an SSH+kubectl remote path to list_pods(), list_
   deployments(), get_ingress_info(), list_deployments_for_namespace(),
   and get_pod_metrics(): when not RUNNING_ON_MAIN_SERVER, each runs
   `kubectl <verb> -o json` on the main server over the tunnel
   (main-to-vm-tunnel.service) instead of using the python client, parses
   the raw (camelCase) JSON directly rather than trying to force it
   through the client-library's snake_case object model, and feeds the
   same _pod_health/_deploy_health/_age_str helpers either way. The
   in-cluster path for the real main-server pod is untouched.

2. get_system_info() called psutil.* unconditionally with no
   RUNNING_ON_MAIN_SERVER awareness at all — on the standby it was
   silently reporting the VM's OWN cpu/mem/disk/hostname mislabeled as
   "system info" (hostname field literally showed the VM's hostname).
   Added _get_main_server_system_info_remote(): SSHes to the main server
   and gathers the same stats via vmstat/free/df/procfs (the main
   server's bare host has no psutil — that's only in this app's own
   container image — so this avoids depending on it being present
   remotely).

Verified end-to-end on the live standby: /api/system now reports the
real main server's hostname/cpu/mem/disk/uptime; /api/cluster reports
real counts (19 pods, 16/16 deployments healthy, 3 degraded, plus live
per-pod metrics via the metrics-server raw API); /api/sites shows real
per-app container/role status. All previously silently empty.
