This PR implements several security hardening measures for the application:

  1. Information Leakage Prevention: The POST handler in src/app/api/chat/route.ts was returning raw error messages for 500 errors. I updated it to return a generic "An error occurred. Please try again later." message, ensuring internal system details are not exposed to the client.
  2. Robust Rate Limiting: The IP detection in src/app/api/chat/ratelimit.ts now prioritizes the x-real-ip header, which is more reliable and less spoofable on Vercel than x-forwarded-for.
  3. Input Validation: Added explicit validation in src/app/api/chat/request.ts to ensure the messages field in the request body is a valid array.
  4. CSP Enhancement: Hardened the Content Security Policy in firebase.json by adding object-src 'none' to block potential malicious plugin exploitation.
  5. Verified with Tests: Added and updated unit tests in src/app/api/chat/*.test.ts to cover the new logic and ensure correctness. All project tests passed.
