feat(security): Spec 076 US2 — three soft checks + per-match pattern confidence (MCP-3577)

Adds the US2 false-positive-discriminating SOFT checks to the Spec-076
offline detect engine, plus per-match confidence on the reused secret
matchers. Soft signals raise a finding for review and never auto-quarantine.

- T013 checks/directive_imperative.go: prompt-injection directives
  (<IMPORTANT> tags, 'do not tell the user', 'ignore previous
  instructions', 'before using this tool') matched over NORMALIZED text
  with position discounting so example-position mentions are suppressed.
- T014 checks/capability_mismatch.go: declared-vs-implied capability gap
  (a compute/string tool touching ~/.ssh, /etc/passwd, a URL or shell)
  plus an unexplained data-sink param ('sidenote'); legitimate file/network
  tools are not flagged.
- T015 internal/security/patterns: additive per-match confidence
  (WithConfidence builder + ConfidenceFor) — Luhn-validated card 0.95,
  generic bearer 0.3, documented examples 0.1, severity defaults otherwise.
  Existing Match/IsValid/Scan behavior is unchanged.
- T016 checks/embedded_secret.go: wraps the patterns matchers with
  confidence and masked evidence, skipping documented placeholders; the
  three soft checks are registered in the scanner detect-engine wiring.

TDD with MUST-flag and hard-negative MUST-NOT-flag cases for each check.

Coordination: detectEngineFindings in inprocess.go is the shared US1/US2
integration point; this branch registers the three SOFT checks and the
Checks slice is the merge point with US1's hard checks (#770).

+// CapabilityMismatch is a SOFT check (FR-009, US2) that flags a gap between what
+// a tool *declares* it does and what it *implies* it touches:
+//
+//   - Declared-vs-implied: a tool whose declared purpose is pure computation or
+//     string manipulation (name/lead like "add", "to_uppercase") that
+//     nevertheless references a sensitive resource it has no business touching
+//     (~/.ssh, /etc/passwd, an external URL, a shell). A calculator reading
+//     id_rsa is a classic capability-mismatch exfiltration tell.
+//   - Unexplained data-sink param: a free-form input named like an exfiltration
+//     channel ("sidenote", "scratchpad") that the description never explains —
+//     the model is steered to stuff stolen data into it.
+//
+// The declared category is taken from the tool NAME and its leading sentence,
+// NOT the full description, so an attacker's benign cover sentence still anchors
+// the declaration while the smuggled access in the rest of the text is treated
+// as implied. Tools that legitimately declare file/network/system access are
+// therefore NOT flagged for touching those resources (FR-009 MUST-NOT).
