Hartmut c2d05b4b99 security: Unicode-aware prompt-injection guard (#39)
checkPromptInjection now NFKD-normalises, strips zero-width / combining
chars, and folds common Cyrillic / Greek homoglyphs before matching. 10
documented bypass examples (fullwidth, ZWJ, ZWSP, soft-hyphen, Cyrillic
е/о, combining marks, LRM, BOM) are covered by unit tests. Security
docs explicitly mark the guard as defense-in-depth — real boundary is
per-tool requirePermission.
