cliffhall 1c24eda429 fix: validate the whole varspec, and derive the TUI's message from its gate
Addresses Copilot's round-7 review on #2035. Two suppressed comments, both
real; each reproduced against this branch before acting.

1. `parseVarSpec` was a "strip the first `*`, trim, split on `:`" pass, so
   it accepted shapes RFC 6570's varspec production does not admit --
   measured on the previous commit:

     x://{*id}     name "id"  =>  "x://abcdef"   explode is a TRAILING modifier
     x://{id*:3}   name "id"  =>  "x://abc"      the two modifiers are exclusive
     x://{ id }    name "id"  =>  "x://abcdef"   whitespace is not a varchar
     x://{a b}     name "a b" =>  "x://1"        ditto -- and it emits into the URI

   `{id*:3}` is the worst of them: it silently truncated the value through a
   combination the grammar forbids. Parsing is now one anchored regex --
   a varname, then at most one trailing `*` or `:1-9999`.

   The name set is `varchar` widened by `-` and `~`, deliberately. A name is
   the one thing expansion emits into the URI WITHOUT encoding it (`;`, `?`
   and `&` write `name=value`), so the rule it has to satisfy is "needs no
   encoding" -- RFC 3986 unreserved plus pct-encoded, of which the RFC's own
   varchar is a subset. Strict varchar would refuse `{user-id}`, which real
   servers publish and which the SDK's matcher round-trips; refusing to read
   a resource that demonstrably works is a worse outcome for a debugging
   tool than a name one character outside the production. Everything now
   rejected is a shape we would otherwise have to guess at.

2. The TUI built its "Missing required template variable(s): ..." list with
   its own bare `values[name]` filter while gating on `hasRequiredValues`,
   which reads own properties only. For a variable legitimately named
   `constructor` the two disagreed: `({})["constructor"]` is `Object`, whose
   `.length` is 1, so the list came out empty and the error named no field
   at all while the submit stayed blocked. Both now come from one exported
   `unmetRequiredGroups`, with `hasRequiredValues` defined in terms of it.

Also renames a test whose title still said multi-name query expressions were
left "to the SDK, which handles them" -- expansion has been owned here since
935113d1; the behavior it asserts is naming, not delegation.

npm run ci passes.
