harden sandbox escape vectors for bash disabled/restricted modes (#257)

Browse Source 
* harden sandbox escape vectors for bash disabled/restricted modes

block git config injection (-c flag as subcommand), dangerous subcommands
(config, submodule, rebase, bisect), code-executing arg flags (--exec,
--extcmd), .gitattributes/.gitmodules writes, and package lifecycle scripts.
add retry logic to test runner for transient failures. add security unit
tests and adhoc attack tests.

Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

* only filter subcommands in nobash, remove nobash from ui

* use regex matching

* iterate on tests

* simplify githooks

Write a file at .git/hooks/pre-push with this content:

Call start_dependency_installation, then await_dependency_installation.
