Kjell Tore Guttormsen b224e18b42 fix(llm-security): YAML/workflow parser divergence — block scalars + bare if: (#32,#33,#43)
#33 the frontmatter parser collected a block-scalar body (description: |) but did not skip it, so an indented name:/allowed_tools: inside the body re-matched as a top-level key and overrode the real values TRG-shadow and permission checks depend on; the parser now consumes block-scalar bodies as opaque content. #32 block-scalar headers carrying indentation/chomping indicators (|2, >-, |-2) were not recognized, so their bodies never reached the run: injection sink; now matched via a proper indicator/chomping regex.

#43 the B4 actor auth-bypass detector inspected only braced ${{ }} expressions, missing the canonical bare 'if: github.actor == ...' form (Synacktiv Dependabot-spoof false negative); bare if: expressions now emit a synthetic event the detector reads. Suite 2004/0.
