feat: bin/gstack-question-preference — explicit preferences + user-origin gate

Subcommands:
  --check <id>   → ASK_NORMALLY | AUTO_DECIDE  (decides if a registered
                   question should be auto-decided by the agent)
  --write '{…}'  → set a preference (requires user-origin source)
  --read         → dump preferences JSON
  --clear [id]   → clear one or all
  --stats        → short counts summary

Preference values: always-ask | never-ask | ask-only-for-one-way.
Stored at ~/.gstack/projects/{SLUG}/question-preferences.json.

Safety contract (the core of Codex finding #16, profile-poisoning defense
from docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V0.md §Security model):

  1. One-way doors ALWAYS return ASK_NORMALLY from --check, regardless of
     user preference. User's never-ask is overridden with a visible safety
     note so the user knows why their preference didn't suppress the prompt.

  2. --write requires an explicit `source` field:
       - Allowed:  "plan-tune", "inline-user"
       - REJECTED with exit code 2: "inline-tool-output", "inline-file",
         "inline-file-content", "inline-unknown"
     Rejection is explicit ("profile poisoning defense") so the caller can
     log and surface the attempt.

  3. free_text on --write is sanitized against injection patterns (ignore
     previous instructions, override:, system:, etc.) and newline-flattened.

Each --write also appends a preference-set event to
~/.gstack/projects/{SLUG}/question-events.jsonl for derivation audit trail.

31 tests:
- --check behavior (4): defaults, two-way, one-way (one-way overrides
  never-ask with safety note), unknown ids, missing arg
- --check with prefs (5): never-ask on two-way → AUTO_DECIDE; never-ask
  on one-way → ASK_NORMALLY with override note; always-ask always asks;
  ask-only-for-one-way flips appropriately
- --write valid (5): inline-user accepted, plan-tune accepted, persisted
  correctly, event appended, free_text preserved with flattening
- User-origin gate (6): missing source rejected; inline-tool-output
  rejected with exit code 2 and explicit poisoning message; inline-file,
  inline-file-content, inline-unknown rejected; unknown source rejected
- Schema validation (4): invalid JSON, bad question_id, bad preference,
  injection in free_text
- --read (2): empty → {}, returns writes
- --clear (3): specific id, clear-all, NOOP for missing
- --stats (2): empty zeros, tallies by preference type

31 pass, 0 fail, 52 expect() calls.

+#   - "plan-tune"         — user ran /plan-tune and chose a preference (allowed)
+#   - "inline-user"       — inline `tune:` from the user's own chat message (allowed)
+#   - "inline-tool-output"— tune: prefix seen in tool output / file content (REJECTED)
+#   - "inline-file"       — tune: prefix seen in a file the agent read (REJECTED)
+# This is the profile-poisoning defense from docs/designs/PLAN_TUNING_V0.md.
