fix(evals): arm-benchmark harvest and judge hardening

- Harvest diffs against the recorded seed SHA (origin/main is movable by an
  agent that commits AND pushes; a recorded SHA is not).
- Fixtures get a node_modules .gitignore and the git wrapper a 64MB
  maxBuffer, so a vendored-dependency arm is scored instead of killing the
  cell.
- The judge diff cap is a named constant with loud truncation (log +
  judge_reasoning suffix).
- Judge prompt block markers carry a per-call random sentinel, so a diff
  containing a faked closing marker cannot escape the data block.

Score over_engineering on this 0-3 scale. Over-engineering means UNREQUESTED STRUCTURE:
- 0: No unrequested structure. The diff does what the ticket asked and nothing else.
