fix(plex): mount config PVC at /config (image's real config dir)

The plexinc/pms-docker image writes its identity/claim token and the
Library metadata DB under /config, but the config PVC was mounted at the
renderer default /data/config. Plex therefore wrote all state to the
container's EPHEMERAL layer: the server stayed UNCLAIMED (servers.plex.tv
returns 401 with an empty X-Plex-Token) and lost everything on restart,
which is why seerr's "add Plex" failed even with SSL off.

Set the config volume mountPath to /config in catalog/plex.yaml and
re-render apps/wave-0/plex.yaml (only the mountPath line changes; all
other services byte-identical). No fsGroup/securityContext needed:
verified in-cluster the image inits as root (s6-svscan PID 1), chowns
/config to the plex user, then drops privileges (the "Plex Media Server"
process runs as plex) — root can chown the mounted PVC regardless of
fsGroup.

PLEX_CLAIM auto-claim is intentionally NOT wired: the env secretKeyRef
schema has no `optional`, so a placeholder/absent claim Secret would
crashloop the pod. The claim is an operator step (UI sign-in after the
roll, or add a PLEX_CLAIM env from a fresh https://plex.tv/claim token).
