feat(llm-security)!: v8 Phase 3 step 1 - remove the deprecated mode env-vars

BREAKING CHANGE: the four LLM_SECURITY_* configuration env-vars deprecated in
v7.3.0 are removed. .llm-security/policy.json is now the only source:

  LLM_SECURITY_INJECTION_MODE     -> injection.mode
  LLM_SECURITY_TRIFECTA_MODE      -> trifecta.mode
  LLM_SECURITY_ESCALATION_WINDOW  -> trifecta.escalation_window
  LLM_SECURITY_AUDIT_LOG          -> audit.log_path
  LLM_SECURITY_DEPRECATION_QUIET  -> dies with the mechanism it silenced

Setting a removed var is now inert - it does not warn, and it does not
configure. Env-vars with no policy equivalent (PRECOMPACT_MODE,
PRECOMPACT_MAX_BYTES, UPDATE_CHECK, MCP_CACHE_FILE, IDE_ROOTS) are unaffected.

getPolicyValueWithEnvWarn and its one-shot stderr warning are deleted from
policy-loader.mjs, along with the module-scoped warned-var Set. The four call
sites collapse to getPolicyValue. getPolicyValue's JSDoc claimed "environment
variables ALWAYS take precedence" - it never read env itself, so that line
described the shim, and it is corrected rather than deleted.

User-facing hook strings that advertised a removed var as the escape hatch now
name the policy key instead: the inject-scan block reason, its warn-mode note,
both escalation-window advisories, and the trifecta block message. A blocked
user following the old text would have set a var that does nothing.

Tests. tests/lib/v8-env-removal.test.mjs is the regression gate and was written
failing first (8 of 12 red before the change). It pins the NEGATIVE - setting a
removed var does not alter the outcome - because that is the half that rots
silently: a re-introduced process.env read would leave every migrated positive
test green, since those configure through policy.json and never set the var at
all. One assertion walks hooks/scripts and scanners for `process.env.<removed>`
so the re-introduction is caught structurally, not only behaviourally.

The 44 env-driven test occurrences (18 inject-scan, 13+4 session-guard, 9
audit-trail) migrate to a throwaway .llm-security/policy.json via a new
runHookWithPolicy helper in hook-helper.mjs; audit-trail runs in-process, so it
supplies the same policy through CLAUDE_PROJECT_ROOT. The D3 mechanism tests in
policy-loader.test.mjs are deleted with the mechanism.

Suite 2039 tests, 2037 pass (+12 gate, -7 D3 mechanism). The 2 failures are the
known parallel-load timing flakes (pre-compact-scan size-cap,
pre-install-supply-chain F-3); both green when run isolated.

Remaining in Phase 3: posture-scanner TRIFECTA_MODE heuristic, riskScoreV1
removal, ghost-var cleanup, docs + migration note.

// v8-env-removal.test.mjs — B11: the deprecated LLM_SECURITY_* mode env-vars

//
// This file is the regression gate for the v8.0.0 breaking change. It asserts
// the NEGATIVE (the env-var no longer does anything), which is the half that
// rots silently: a re-introduced `process.env.LLM_SECURITY_TRIFECTA_MODE`
// read would leave every migrated positive test green, because those tests
// configure via policy.json and never set the env-var at all.

// Each env-var is pinned twice:
// 1. behaviourally — set the env-var to a value that WOULD have changed the
// outcome pre-v8, assert the outcome is the default anyway;
// 2. structurally — the deprecation mechanism itself is gone from source.
//
// Removal set (v7.3.0 deprecation runway, per docs/version-history.md):
// LLM_SECURITY_INJECTION_MODE -> injection.mode
// LLM_SECURITY_TRIFECTA_MODE -> trifecta.mode
// LLM_SECURITY_ESCALATION_WINDOW -> trifecta.escalation_window
// LLM_SECURITY_AUDIT_LOG -> audit.log_path
