test: 20 security tests for audit remediation

- server-auth: verify token removed from /health, auth on /refs, /activity/*
- cookie-picker: auth required on data routes, HTML page unauthenticated
- path-validation: symlink bypass blocked, realpathSync failure throws
- gstack-config: regex key rejected, sed special chars preserved
- state-ttl: savedAt timestamp, 7-day TTL warning
- telemetry: branch/repo with quotes don't corrupt JSON
- adversarial: sidepanel escapes entry.command, freeze prefix collision
