non-nil; continue passing auth through smtp.SendMail for the other path.

Route SMTP test delivery through an application service.
The apps/api/ guidance defines the layering rule as “handler → service → store” and describes handlers as HTTP-shape code that binds requests, calls services, and returns JSON. SendTestEmail instead performs SMTP delivery by calling mail.SendWithSMTPSettings directly. Move this operation into an instance email service, then call that service from the handler.

maybe factor out the port validator as a seperate fucntion?

There is currently no shared client-side email format validation elsewhere; the other fields rely on native type="email" validation and server-side validation. Extracting this into a helper function is not warranted for a single use case.

Reject TLS-mode servers that do not advertise STARTTLS.
The test-email endpoint accepts Security: "TLS" and passes it to the SMTP sender. When STARTTLS is absent, the sender continues authentication and delivery over the plaintext connection. Return an error for TLS mode instead.

Summary
Adds a working “Send test email” action to Instance Admin → Email. Instance admins can test the current SMTP form values before saving them.

Closes #403

apps/api/)apps/web/)apps/api/migrations/)What changed
Why this approach
The test uses the current form values, so an administrator can verify a new SMTP configuration before saving it. The recipient is the signed-in instance admin’s own email address, avoiding an arbitrary-recipient or open-relay-style endpoint. Test email delivery is synchronous and does not depend on RabbitMQ.
