Garry Tan 40e5dcf57d feat(brain): salience privacy allowlist gate (T17 / D9)
D9 cross-model finding from codex outside voice: salience-sourced digests
can include emotionally-weighted personal pages (family, therapy,
reflection). Pulling those into a coding-review prompt leaks sensitive
context into work-flow reasoning.

fetchSalience now strips entries whose slugs don't match an allowlist
prefix BEFORE writing to the cache file. Default allowlist is
SALIENCE_DEFAULT_ALLOWLIST = ['projects/', 'concepts/', 'gstack/'].
User can extend via:
  gstack-config set salience_allowlist 'projects/,gstack/,concepts/,custom/'
or override with GSTACK_SALIENCE_ALLOWLIST env var.

Digest still records the strip count for transparency. Empty result
emits 'all N entries stripped' note rather than silent absence.

test/salience-allowlist.test.ts: 9 tests covering default permits,
default blocks, empty allowlist, env override, whitespace trimming,
and the invariant that defaults contain nothing sensitive (personal,
family, therapy, reflection, private, medical, health).
