+CVs are confidential: objects stay private (no Principal "*" bucket policy).
+DB ``file_path`` stores a stable object address (virtual-hosted HTTPS form of the key)
+so the same path survives forever until the object is deleted. That address is NOT
+meant to be opened anonymously — open via authenticated download or a short-lived
+presigned GET (see S3.presigned_get_url / GET /s3/open).
+
+CV keys are record-scoped (atomicity): DB row is created first, then upload uses that id:
+
+  Email/{table_record_id}/{user_id}/{file_name}.pdf
+  Manual/{table_record_id}/{user_id}/{file_name}.pdf
+  Form/{table_record_id}/{recruiter_id}/{file_name}.pdf
+
+Callers that create the row MUST delete it if upload_for_record fails.
