feat(auth): give the secrets file a real cross-process lock (#2082)

#1950 shipped FileSecretStore without cross-process mutual exclusion, by
decision: an earlier revision hand-rolled a `mkdir` election with an owner
stamp, a heartbeat and a stale-takeover, and three consecutive review rounds
found a real race in it. The last one is not closable with what Node exposes
— claiming a stale lock atomically needs compare-and-swap on a directory
entry (`renameat2(RENAME_EXCHANGE)`) — so it was replaced with optimistic
verify-and-retry and the residual documented.

#2082 settles that as "borrow, don't hand-roll". `proper-lockfile` is what
npm itself locks with, and stale-takeover is precisely the problem it has
already solved: it re-stats the lock directory after claiming it and gives
the lock up when the mtime is not the one it wrote, so the loser of a
takeover race releases instead of proceeding.

- core/auth/node/file-lock.ts: `withSecretFileLock`. `realpath: false` so a
  file can be locked into existence (the very first `set` has no
  `secrets.json`, and the library's default resolves through `fs.realpath`);
  a warning in place of the library's `onCompromised`, which throws from a
  timer and would take the session down; and a degrade-with-one-warning path
  rather than a throw when no lock can be taken — this store exists for boxes
  missing the usual mechanism (#1848, #1905) and must not gain a new way to
  be unavailable.
- FileSecretStore.mutate holds it across the whole read-modify-write. The
  optimistic verify stays underneath and is not redundant: a lock is advisory
  between the processes that take it, so the verify covers a writer outside
  this codebase and covers the degrade path. The in-process queue stays too,
  and gains a second job — proper-lockfile is not reentrant, so serializing
  per path keeps ELOCKED meaning "another process".
- absorbFileSecretsIntoKeyring takes the same lock around orphan adoption and
  the atomic claim, behind a lock-free `readdir` fast path so the common
  startup (keychain available, no file ever written) neither creates a lock
  directory nor warns about one it could not create.

proper-lockfile is a root `dependency` per the placement rule, and is named
in all three bundler `external` lists: tsup externalizes what the *client's*
manifest declares, so a root-only CJS package was being inlined into the ESM
bundles, leaving esbuild's `Dynamic require of "path" is not supported` shim
that killed `--cli` at import time. That rule was undocumented; it is now in
AGENTS.md beside the placement rule that creates it, and mirrored into
.github/copilot-instructions.md.

Tests: 7 new in file-lock.test.ts driving a real second process (the existing
suite structurally cannot — `serialize` orders in-process callers before the
lock sees them), plus two for the migration fast path.
