The billing portal endpoint (POST /api/billing/portal, PR #782) needs proper configuration of allowed flows. Without configuration, customers may not be able to cancel or update payment methods.

Implementation:

Before creating the portal session, call stripe.billingPortal.configurations.create() with:
- features.payment_method_update.enabled = true
- features.subscription_cancel.enabled = true, mode = 'at_period_end', cancellation_reason.enabled = true
- features.invoice_history.enabled = true
- business_profile.privacy_policy_url = process.env.PRIVACY_POLICY_URL (if set)
- business_profile.terms_of_service_url = process.env.TERMS_OF_SERVICE_URL (if set)
Cache the configuration ID in a module-level variable (portal configs are immutable — create once, reuse)
Pass the cached configuration ID to stripe.billingPortal.sessions.create({ configuration: cachedConfigId, ... })

Acceptance: Portal session uses a persistent configuration with cancel, update payment, and invoice history flows enabled. Configuration is created once and reused, not recreated on every request.
