Subject: [PATCH] setup_meilisearch: generate a 32-byte master key

base64 12 yields 16 characters. MeiliSearch itself only asks for 16 bytes,
but Wanderer's PocketBase fork refuses to start below 32 and crash-loops with
"MEILI_MASTER_KEY not set or is shorter than 32 bytes".

A longer key is valid for all 11 callers, so this is raised at the source
rather than overridden per script.
