security: fix LLM prompt injection and eliminate unsafe memory operations
Critical security fixes addressing overseer audit findings: 1. LLM Prompt Injection (agent.rs:604-618) - Created prompt_sanitizer module with comprehensive validation - Sanitize user-provided system prompts before execution - Detect suspicious patterns (ignore instructions, special tokens) - Remove control characters and enforce length limits - Log warnings when prompts are modified - All 8 tests passing 2. Unsafe Memory Operations (lib.rs, agent.rs, pool.rs, pool_manager.rs) - Replaced all unsafe ptr::read() calls with safe alternatives - Used DeviceStorage::arc_memory_only() safe method - Eliminated use-after-free risks from unsafe code - 12 occurrences fixed across 4 files 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
