Complete WP-0010: HTTP remote federation with cache
Extend federation manifest schema for url sources with auth and TTL metadata.

# Network federation for remote indexes
Close gap analysis priority 15. Extend federation beyond filesystem paths to
fetch capability indexes from HTTP URLs or git raw endpoints.
## Extend Federation Schema For URLs
```task
id: REUSE-WP-0010-T01
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "6f181057-e0f7-4879-9eb9-928a527a01ee"
```
Extend `schemas/federation.schema.yaml` and manifest format to support `url`
sources alongside `index` file paths, with optional auth and TTL metadata.
## Implement Remote Index Fetch
```task
id: REUSE-WP-0010-T02
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "a2fac7d5-9383-4a42-bd23-3e8dbc7d550b"
```
Add HTTP fetch to `federation compose` with local cache under
`registry/federation/cache/`. Clear errors when remote source unavailable.
## Document Federation Operations
```task
id: REUSE-WP-0010-T03
status: done
priority: low
state_hub_task_id: "73996193-ecae-4fb4-84f7-fe84a5cd8898"
```
Update `docs/RegistryFederation.md` with remote source examples and agent
guidance for cross-repo discovery without local checkout.
