feat(sandbox): strengthen bash command auditing with compound splitting and expanded patterns (#1881)

* fix(sandbox): strengthen regex coverage in SandboxAuditMiddleware

Expand high-risk patterns from 6 to 13 and medium-risk from 4 to 6,
closing several bypass vectors identified by cross-referencing Claude
Code's BashSecurity validator chain against DeerFlow's threat model.

High-risk additions:
- Generalised pipe-to-sh (replaces narrow curl|sh rule)
- Targeted command substitution ($() / backtick with dangerous executables)
- base64 decode piped to execution
- Overwrite system binaries (/usr/bin/, /bin/, /sbin/)
- Overwrite shell startup files (~/.bashrc, ~/.profile, etc.)
- /proc/*/environ leakage
- LD_PRELOAD / LD_LIBRARY_PATH hijack
- /dev/tcp/ bash built-in networking

Medium-risk additions:
- sudo/su (no-op under Docker root, warn only)
- PATH= modification (long attack chain, warn only)

Design decisions:
- Command substitution uses targeted matching (curl/wget/bash/sh/python/
  ruby/perl/base64) rather than blanket block to avoid false positives
  on safe usage like $(date) or `whoami`.
- Skipped encoding/obfuscation checks (hex, octal, Unicode homoglyphs)
  as ROI is low in Docker sandbox — LLMs don't generate encoded commands
  and container isolation bounds the blast radius.
- Merged pip/pip3 into single pip3? pattern.

* feat(sandbox): compound command splitting and fork bomb detection

Split compound bash commands (&&, ||, ;) into sub-commands and classify
each independently — prevents dangerous commands hidden after safe
prefixes (e.g. "cd /workspace && rm -rf /") from bypassing detection.

- Add _split_compound_command() with shlex quote-aware splitting
- Add fork bomb detection patterns (classic and while-loop variants)
- Most severe verdict wins; block short-circuits
- 15 new tests covering compound commands, splitting, and fork bombs

* test(sandbox): add async tests for fork bomb and compound commands

Cover awrap_tool_call path for fork bomb detection (3 variants) and
compound command splitting (block/warn/pass scenarios).

* fix(sandbox): address Copilot review — no-whitespace operators, >>/etc/, whole-command scan

- _split_compound_command: replace shlex-based implementation with a
  character-by-character quote/escape-aware scanner. shlex.split only
  separates '&&' / '||' / ';' when they are surrounded by whitespace,
  so payloads like 'rm -rf /&&echo ok' or 'safe;rm -rf /' bypassed the
  previous splitter and therefore the per-sub-command classifier.
- _HIGH_RISK_PATTERNS: change r'>\s*/etc/' to r'>+\s*/etc/' so append
  redirection ('>>/etc/hosts') is also blocked.
- _classify_command: run a whole-command high-risk scan *before*
  splitting. Structural attacks like 'while true; do bash & done'
  span multiple shell statements — splitting on ';' destroys the
  pattern context, so the raw command must be scanned first.
- tests: add no-whitespace operator cases to TestSplitCompoundCommand
  and test_compound_command_classification to lock in the bypass fix.
