Document mautrix bridge HTTP API exposure (for mautrix-manager and similar)

Browse Source 
Add a "Expose the bridge's API" section to the common mautrix bridges
documentation page (covering the /bridges/<bridge> path, the
/.well-known/matrix/mautrix auto-discovery file, how to disable it, and
the custom-bridges hook), plus a CHANGELOG entry announcing the feature.

# 2026-06-29
## Mautrix bridges now expose their API (for Mautrix Manager and similar tools)
The playbook now exposes the HTTP API of each [mautrix](https://github.com/mautrix) bridge, so tools like [Mautrix Manager](https://github.com/mautrix/manager) can help you log into them. This is especially useful for [mautrix-gmessages](./docs/configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-gmessages.md): Google has removed its QR-code login, leaving a [manual cookie-extraction flow](https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/gmessages/authentication.html) that tools like Mautrix Manager can streamline.
The API is exposed at `https://matrix.example.com/bridges/SERVICENAME` (for example, `https://matrix.example.com/bridges/gmessages`) and is advertised via a new `/.well-known/matrix/mautrix` file, so compatible tools can discover your bridges automatically. Such tools authenticate with your own Matrix access token, so no bridge secret needs to be shared with them.
This affects all mautrix bridges based on the new bridge framework (bluesky, gmessages, meta-instagram, meta-messenger, signal, slack, telegram, twitter and whatsapp) and is enabled by default.
To learn more (including how to turn it off), see the [Expose the bridge's API](./docs/configuring-playbook-bridge-mautrix-bridges.md#expose-the-bridges-api-for-mautrix-manager-and-similar-tools) section on our common mautrix bridges documentation page.
