While it doesn't hurt, it's unnecessary since the big protobuf
modernisation, that also introduced types separate from the generated
ones for internal use. Those fields are already dropped when converting
to the wire in protocol.
This updates our key generation to use Ed25519 keys/certificates for
sync connections. Certificates for browser use remain ECDSA for wider
compatibility.
Ed25519 is more modern and has fewer concerns for the future than the
ECDSA curves we used previously. It is supported from Go 1.13 and
forwards, which is Syncthing 1.3.0 (October 2019).
### Purpose
Locally, on Windows 11, and on the windows-2025 GitHub runner (go 1.23
and 1.24), the `TestCopyRange` test is failing with `The request is not
supported.`
On windows-2022 and windows-2019:
```go
err == syscall.ENOTSUP
```
worked, but on Windows 11 and windows-2025, we need:
```go
errors.Is(err, errors.ErrUnsupported)
```
### Testing
Tested on Windows 11, windows-2019, windows-2022, and
[windows-2025](https://github.com/rasa/syncthing/actions/runs/15525123437/job/43703630634#step:7:2811).

fix(syncthing): avoid writing panic log to nil fd (#10154)
### Purpose
This change fixes a logical bug in the panic log writing where we could
end up writing to a uninitialized file descriptor.
On the very first iteration, `panicFd` is nil. We enter the if `panicFd
== nil { … }` block, check for “panic:” or “fatal error:”, and if
neither matches, we skip instantiating `panicFd` altogether. However,
immediately after, still within `if panicFd == nil { … }`, we call
`panicFd.WriteString("Panic at ...")`. But `panicFd` would in this case
be `nil`, which will cause a run‐time panic.
It's not clear to me why panicFd is only initialized if the lines start
with "panic:" or "fatal error:" so I've left that logic untouched. With
this change we at least avoid the risk of writing to a nil
filedescriptor.

* main:
feat(config): expose folder and device info as metrics (fixes#9519) (#10148)
chore: add issue types to GitHub issue templates
build: remove schedule from PR metadata job
chore(protocol): only allow enc. password changes on cluster config (#10145)
chore(protocol): don't start connection routines a second time (#10146)
Tihs makes it easier to use metrics based on device and folder labels,
names, and other attributes. Other metrics which are based on folder or
device ID can be joined with these info metrics to enrich their label
sets.
```
# HELP syncthing_config_device_info Provides additional information labels on devices
# TYPE syncthing_config_device_info gauge
syncthing_config_device_info{device="I6KAH76-66SLLLB-5PFXSOA-UFJCDZC-YAOMLEK-CP2GB32-BV5RQST-3PSROAU",introducer="false",name="s1",paused="false",untrusted="false"} 1
# HELP syncthing_config_folder_info Provides additional information labels on folders
# TYPE syncthing_config_folder_info gauge
syncthing_config_folder_info{folder="default",label="The default folder",path="s2",paused="false",type="sendreceive"} 1
```
With this you can e.g. query for
```
syncthing_connections_active * on(device) group_left syncthing_config_device_info
```

This changes the default number of connections from one to three (one
metadata + two data connections). This should give some advantages of
multiple connections, while also not being an overwhelming change for
larger installations. (Though those may need to tweak their settings
anyway, as always.)
