feat(sandbox): add DockerSandbox + pre-tool-use guardrail hooks (Phase 3)

Gives native-API-driven agents (currently just the Phase 2 Anthropic
adapter) real container isolation, decoupled from model invocation --
the model call happens in the Go process via provider.Provider, only tool
execution happens in the container, unlike the CLI-subprocess ContainerRunner
(left completely untouched) where the claude/gemini CLI runs inside the
container.

- internal/sandbox/dockersandbox.go: Sandbox via a long-lived
  `docker run -d ... sleep infinity` container (started once per execution,
  not per tool call), host-side git clone + bind-mount matching
  ContainerRunner's existing pattern, docker exec for read/write/bash/glob.
  Reuses images/agent-base (claudomator-agent:latest) rather than
  standing up a second image. WorkDir()/resume persists the host bind-mount
  directory (matching HostSandbox's contract); a resumed sandbox lazily
  starts a fresh container against that directory rather than trying to
  reattach to a possibly-gone one.
- internal/sandbox/guard.go, hooks.go: Hook interface (CheckBash/CheckWrite),
  Guarded wrapper, DenylistBashHook (rm -rf /, force-push, curl|sh, sudo,
  chmod 777, dd if=) and ProtectedPathHook (.git/**, .env*, credentials/,
  .github/workflows/**). A rejection returns *RejectionError, which
  agentloop/tools.go now recognizes and feeds back to the model as a normal
  (non-fatal) tool-error result instead of aborting the run.
- NativeRunner wraps whichever Sandbox it builds (Host or Docker) in
  Guarded{Hooks: DefaultHooks()} uniformly. The "anthropic" runner now uses
  DockerSandbox; "local" stays on HostSandbox by design (local models are
  the harness's more-trusted, lower-stakes-to-run tier).

Docker is not installed in this dev environment (no docker/podman/containerd
on PATH), so DockerSandbox's real container-lifecycle behavior is verified
via mocked-command unit tests only -- go test -race ./... passes throughout,
with the two real-daemon integration tests gated behind a dockerAvailable(t)
check and skipping here. Live verification against an actual Docker host is
a follow-up before relying on the "anthropic" agent type in production.

+// defaultSandboxImage is used when DockerSandbox is constructed with an
+// empty image. It reuses images/agent-base — the same image
+// executor.ContainerRunner defaults to ("claudomator-agent:latest") for the
+// claude/gemini CLI-subprocess path — rather than adding a second,
+// purpose-built minimal image for this phase. agent-base already has
+// everything the sandbox tool set needs (git, bash, coreutils via Ubuntu
+// 24.04) and `git config --system safe.directory '*'` baked in, which
+// DockerSandbox's bind-mount-owned-by-host-uid setup relies on. The
+// tradeoff: the image also carries Node/Go/the claude and gemini CLIs that
+// a generic tool-execution sandbox never uses, so container start is
+// slower and the image is larger than strictly necessary. A follow-up phase
+// can split out a slim `claudomator-sandbox:latest` (git + bash + coreutils
+// only) if that overhead becomes a real problem; standing up and
+// maintaining a second image wasn't worth it for this phase, especially
+// since Docker was not available to build/verify one in this environment.
+const defaultSandboxImage = "claudomator-agent:latest"
+
+// DockerSandbox implements Sandbox by running tool calls inside a Docker
+// container instead of directly on the host (compare HostSandbox). It
+// mirrors executor.ContainerRunner's clone-on-host-then-bind-mount pattern
+// rather than cloning inside the container:
+//
+//   - GitClone clones the repo into a fresh host temp directory with a
+//     plain `git clone` (identical to HostSandbox.GitClone), then starts a
+//     container with that directory bind-mounted at /workspace and left
+//     running idle (`docker run -d ... sleep infinity`), so each
+//     ReadFile/WriteFile/RunBash/Glob call becomes a `docker exec` into an
+//     already-running container instead of paying container-start latency
+//     per call.
+//   - The container runs as `--user <hostUID>:<hostGID>`, matching
+//     ContainerRunner.buildDockerArgs, so files it creates in the bind
+//     mount are host-owned rather than root-owned.
+//
+// WorkDir/resume design: WorkDir returns the HOST bind-mount directory, not
+// the in-container /workspace path. This is the value NativeRunner persists
+// to executions.sandbox_dir for a BLOCKED→QUEUED resume (see
+// internal/executor/nativerunner.go), and it's the only thing persisted —
+// the running container's ID is not stored anywhere durable. Consequently a
+// resumed DockerSandbox does NOT attempt to reattach to the original
+// container; instead every tool method lazily starts a fresh container
+// bind-mounted onto the persisted host directory if one isn't already
+// running on this *DockerSandbox value (see ensureContainerLocked). This
+// was chosen over reattachment because the original container ID has
+// nowhere to live in the current single-string sandbox_dir contract, and
+// even if it did, reattachment is fragile (the container may already be
+// gone — host reboot, manual `docker rm`, OOM kill) where re-mounting the
+// host directory into a brand new container is not: as long as the host
+// directory survived, a resumed DockerSandbox behaves identically to a
+// fresh one.
+//
+// Known limitation (not fixed in this phase): internal/agentloop.Loop.Run
+// only calls Sandbox.Cleanup() on the non-blocked finish path — on
+// ask_user (BLOCKED) the sandbox is deliberately left alive so a resume can
+// reuse it. For HostSandbox that only leaves a temp directory on disk. For
+// DockerSandbox it also leaves the idle `sleep infinity` container running
+// until the task is eventually resumed and finishes cleanly (at which point
+// Cleanup finally removes it), or some future reaper is added. This mirrors
+// the existing resume contract as-is rather than extending it; a general
+// "reap idle blocked sandboxes" mechanism is out of scope here.
