Colin McDonnell 585a5d21cc fix(askpass): scope code + script lifetime to one $git() call (#841)
* fix(askpass): scope code + script lifetime to one $git() call, not first password prompt

LFS pre-push (and any auth-bound sibling subprocess) consumed the single-use
code AND triggered the script self-delete, so git's own push call then hit
`fatal: cannot exec '/tmp/pullfrog-…/askpass-…js'` and our server treated
the legitimate retry as tamper, revoking the installation token. Observed
on nteract/nteract#2987 (LFS repo).

`gitAuthServer` codes are now `active` until `$git()`'s finally calls
`revoke()`; the script no longer self-deletes (finally already unlinks).
Replay after revoke still trips 409 + token revocation, which is the
realistic exfiltration vector we care about.

* fix(askpass): drop wall-clock TTL on active codes

Copilot review on #841 noticed the 5-minute CODE_TTL_MS still applied to
active codes, which would re-introduce the original LFS failure mode at a
different boundary: a large LFS push lasting >5min would hit a 404 mid-
call. $git() uses `activityTimeout: 0` precisely because git fetch/push
can take arbitrarily long, so any wall-clock TTL on active codes is wrong.

Active codes now live until revoke() is called (in $git()'s finally) or
the auth server is closed. Revoked codes keep their 60s replay trap.

* docs(askpass): purge stale single-use vocabulary; align error message

Pullfrog review on #841 surfaced four doc-drift sites that still described
the pre-PR single-use model:

- wiki/security.md — 3 references (overview prose, bullets, threat-mitigation table)
- action/utils/gitAuth.ts — file-level JSDoc + the 409 error message
- wiki/askpass.md — error message quoted in the tamper-evident section
- action/utils/gitAuthServer.ts — per-prompt invocation comment was ambiguous

All updated to match the active|revoked vocabulary; error message is now
"askpass code was replayed after revoke, token revoked".
