feat(gateway): deprecate query param hook token auth for security (#2200)

* feat(gateway): deprecate query param hook token auth for security

Query parameter tokens appear in:
- Server access logs
- Browser history
- Referrer headers
- Network monitoring tools

This change adds a deprecation warning when tokens are provided via
query parameter, encouraging migration to header-based authentication
(Authorization: Bearer <token> or X-Clawdbot-Token header).

Changes:
- Modified extractHookToken to return { token, fromQuery } object
- Added deprecation warning in server-http.ts when fromQuery is true
- Updated tests to verify the new return type and fromQuery flag

Fixes #2148
