Add health check URLs for critical containers that are currently only checked via `docker ps` (alive but hung won't be caught).

**Why:** A hung-but-not-crashed NPM/Authelia fails all traffic silently with no watchdog trigger. Currently only Emby has a health URL.

**How to apply:** When user is ready, add to host1.conf:
- Define `HOST1_NPM_ADMIN_URL="http://localhost:7818"` near the NPM identity section (no existing URL var for admin panel — `HOST1_NETWORK_WATCHDOG_NPM_URL` is the external domain, different thing)
- Add to `HOST1_WATCHDOG_CONTAINER_URLS`: NPM, Authelia (9091), Authelia-Secondary (9092), Lldap-Gmer4Lfe (17170) — confirm ports before adding
- Pattern: define URL var, reference it in the array (same as HOST1_EMBY_URL pattern)

NPM admin port confirmed by user: **7818** (not 81 — that's the partnership WebUI port in HOST1_PARTNERSHIP_AUTH_WEBUIS)
