fix(security): add host/origin allowlist + validate git refs + quote workflow input (#2185)
Three defense-in-depth fixes around untrusted input flowing to subprocess execution:

1. **Control-pane HTTP server (scripts/lib/control-pane/server.js)**
   The local control-pane API binds to 127.0.0.1 but had no Host or Origin
   validation, so a DNS-rebinding attack from a malicious website could pivot
   into the loopback endpoints — including POST /api/actions/:id, which spawns
   'cargo run -- graph ...' with caller-supplied query strings. Add a hostname
   allowlist (loopback variants plus the explicitly configured --host) and
   reject mismatched Host (421) or non-loopback Origin (403) before any route
   handler runs.

2. **OpenCode git-summary tool (.opencode/tools/git-summary.ts)**
   The tool was building 'git diff ${baseBranch}...HEAD --stat' with execSync
   and a raw model-supplied baseBranch string. Switch run() to execFileSync
   with an args array (no shell), validate baseBranch against a conservative
   git-ref allowlist (rejects shell metacharacters, leading -, embedded ..),
   and clamp the depth arg to a small positive integer before interpolating
   into 'git log --oneline -<N>'.

3. **Reusable test workflow (.github/workflows/reusable-test.yml)**
   The 'Install dependencies' step interpolated ${{ inputs.package-manager }}
   directly into a bash 'case' and into an echo, so a downstream caller that
   forwarded attacker-controllable input could inject into the runner. Move
   the input into a PACKAGE_MANAGER env var and reference $PACKAGE_MANAGER
   inside the script per the GitHub script-injection guidance.

Detected by Aeon + semgrep p/security-audit (host check via threat-model
manual-review axis; git-summary via detect-child-process; workflow via
run-shell-injection).

Verification: node tests/run-all.js — 2686/2687 pre-existing tests pass; the
one failure (observe.sh legacy output fallback) reproduces on main without
this branch applied. Added 2 new control-pane tests covering the allowlist
classifier and the DNS-rebinding-gate behavior end-to-end.
