fix(deploy): non-interactive restart in deploy.sh; restart-only sudoers rule

Browse source 
deploy.sh runs as fenja and called `sudo systemctl restart`, which prompted
for fenja's (nonexistent) password and aborted the deploy. Use `sudo -n` so
it never hangs: restart silently when the NOPASSWD rule is present, else
print the manual restart command and exit non-zero. Drop sudo from the
read-only status line. Narrow the documented sudoers rule to restart-only
and create it via visudo.

Let `fenja` restart just this unit without a password (used by `deploy.sh`):
Let `fenja` restart just this unit without a password (used by `deploy.sh`).
`deploy.sh` runs as `fenja` and escalates only for the restart; reading status
needs no sudo. Create the rule with `visudo` (validates syntax, sets perms):
```bash
echo 'fenja ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl restart bifrost-portal, /usr/bin/systemctl status bifrost-portal' \
| sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/bifrost-portal
sudo chmod 440 /etc/sudoers.d/bifrost-portal
sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/bifrost-portal
```
Add exactly this one line (a single-command allowlist — not general sudo):
```
fenja ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl restart bifrost-portal
```
Verify: `sudo -l -U fenja | grep systemctl` shows only that command. If you'd
rather keep sudo exclusively with admin users, skip this — `deploy.sh` will
then stop before the restart and print the `sudo systemctl restart
bifrost-portal` command for you to run as an admin.
