feat(security): deterministic offline baseline scanner (Spec 077 US1)

Related #784
Related: Spec 077 (specs/077-scanner-simplification)

Make the offline detect engine the sole in-process baseline. Delete the
duplicate legacy tpaRules phrase heuristics and the duplicate legacy
embedded-secret path, preserving the approval-blocking posture via a new
curated HARD-tier detect check.

## Changes
- Add ScanFinding.Tier ("hard"|"soft") and Sources ([]string); set them from
  detect output in detectFindingToScanFinding (omitempty, back-compat).
- Add DeepScanDescriptor + ScanSummary.DeepScan placeholder (US3 populates it).
- New detect check checks/phrase_injection.go: hard-tier, curated
  injection/exfiltration directives, position-discounted to avoid benign FPs.
  Wired into the live scanner Checks slice and cmd/scan-eval gateChecks().
- Remove legacy tpaRules, matchAnyPhrase, and the security.NewDetector append.
- Derive the server verdict from tiers only: a "dangerous" status now requires
  >=1 hard baseline finding (isBlockingFinding); legacy/external findings keep
  their threat_level fallback.
- Document the FR-018 default posture: in-process scanner enabled, Docker
  scanners disabled (Status-driven).
- Extend detect_corpus_v1.json with 7 phrase_injection positives and 4 benign
  near-misses; add phrase_injection to the gate categoryCheck.

## Testing
- phrase_injection recall + benign no-block; corpus no-coverage-loss;
  determinism with nil Docker runner; default-enablement.
- go test -race ./internal/security/... ./cmd/scan-eval/... green.
- scan-eval --gate: recall 1.0000 (>=0.90), fp 0.0000 (<=0.05), phrase_injection
  gated 7/7.
- golangci-lint v2 clean.
