timothy 65d88b5167 test(#289): pin BoundedLineReader cap/CRLF boundaries + document per-segment path assumption

Non-blocking polish from the fix-commit re-review (verdict MERGEABLE):
- BuildPath: comment the assumption that each {param} is its own path segment
  (revalidate the whole path if a template ever concatenates adjacent params).
- Two additive BoundedLineReader tests: exactly-at-cap line returned intact
  (inclusive max), and \r\n carriage-return stripping. No logic change.

36 tests (was 34).

timothy 4f68805d9a security(#289): review fixes — body-read timeout, transport-error response, bounded stdin, env clamps
Folds in findings from the independent reviews of the initial hardening diff
(a cold adversarial pass + a Codex pass — complementary catches).

Fork (HIGH/MED):
- Body-read timeout regression: ResponseHeadersRead moved the body read outside
  HttpClient.Timeout and it used CancellationToken.None, so a slow-drip upstream
  hung the single-threaded session. Now a per-request linked CTS (options
  .EffectiveRequestTimeout) covers headers + body; HttpClient.Timeout set to
  Infinite so one timer owns it. Verified live against a black-hole upstream:
  1s timeout → -32603 in ~1s, no hang.
- Transport/timeout exceptions escaped HandleAsync's catch filter → no response
  for the id → client hangs. Added a broad final catch → -32603 when hasId.

Codex (env/input robustness):
- ERSATZTV_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SECONDS / ERSATZTV_MAX_RESPONSE_BYTES at int.MaxValue
  crashed at startup / overflowed `cap+1` to a negative alloc. ParseInt now
  clamps to [min,max]; the client also hard-ceils the cap (MaxAllowedResponseBytes).
- A ".."/"." path param collapsed the URL onto another route under Uri
  canonicalization — rejected in BuildPath.

Both reviewers (stdin OOM): ReadLineAsync buffered an unbounded line before any
guard. New BoundedLineReader drains+drops oversized lines (memory-bounded),
keeping subsequent lines aligned.

Nits: case-insensitive ParseBool fallback; UTF-8 boundary backoff so a mid-
codepoint truncation doesn't emit U+FFFD; renamed a misleading test.

34 tests (was 26); +8 covering the transport-error path, dot-segment rejection,
cap-overflow fallback, UTF-8 seam, and the bounded reader.

timothyandClaude Opus 4.8 55fc210385 security(#289): harden MCP server (read-only posture, JSON-DoS, response cap, arg validation)
From the #197 cold review's MCP-consumer pass. Hardens `ErsatzTV.Mcp` (PR #76)
before it can go live against a soon-remote-exposed API.

- HIGH verb-guard: runtime read-only *posture* (ERSATZTV_ALLOW_WRITES, default
  false) enforced in the executor — a wrong catalog entry can't mutate/delete,
  and future write tools (#58) slot in behind the opt-in. Not a hardcoded
  GET-only clamp, so the non-read-only final design stays reachable.
- HIGH JSON-crash DoS: guard JsonDocument.Parse in HandleAsync (-32700, id null),
  handle missing/non-string method (-32600) instead of throwing, and wrap the
  Program.Main read loop so one bad stdin line can never kill the session.
- MED unbounded response / LOW no-timeout: cap the buffered body
  (ERSATZTV_MAX_RESPONSE_BYTES, truncation marker) + explicit HttpClient.Timeout.
- MED args unvalidated: ToolArgumentValidator checks caller args against each
  tool's InputSchema (required present, no unknown args, basic types) before a
  request is built.
- MED prompt injection: documented untrusted-data posture in docs/mcp.md.
- LOW base-URL prefix: preserve a reverse-proxy path prefix in the URL join.

Also documents that ERSATZTV_API_KEY is now effectively required (Bundle A gates
all /api reads behind X-Api-Key). 14 new tests (26 total); live stdin smoke
confirms malformed/no-method/non-object lines no longer crash the loop.
