Исправлена критическая логическая ошибка в цепочке Fake TLS -> MTProto.
Ранее при валидном TLS-хендшейке, но неверном MTProto-пакете, прокси
ошибочно передавал в маскирующий релей обернутый (FakeTls) поток.
Теперь транспорт корректно разворачивается (unwrap) до сырого сокета
через .into_inner(), обеспечивая полную прозрачность (wire-transparency)
для DPI и маскирующего бэкенда.
Security & Hardening:
- Логика приведена в соответствие с требованиями OWASP ASVS L2 (V5: Validation, Sanitization and Encoding).
- Реализовано поведение "fail-closed": при любой ошибке верификации прокси мимикрирует под обычный веб-сервер, не раскрывая своей роли.
- Улучшена диагностика и логирование состояний аутентификации для защиты от активного пробинга.
