didericis 15f0e0b507 test(integration): unblock sandbox-escape; add firecracker launch smoke
Sandbox-escape couldn't run: its git-gate fixture had no host_key, so the
preflight ssh-keyscanned the deliberately-unreachable upstream and die()d
in setUpClass. Preset a throwaway host_key so the keyscan is skipped (the
key is never used — the push is rejected by gitleaks first).

That unblocked a second, pre-existing issue: the planted secrets weren't
caught by gitleaks (the AWS example key is allowlisted; the others hit
entropy/keyword gates in the keyword-free URL the attack embeds). Reshape
the fixtures — three structural, high-entropy shapes gitleaks matches
without a keyword (github / slack / gitlab) for the git-push attack, and
a separate alphanumeric secret for the DNS attack (a gitleaks-matchable
token carries separators that aren't valid DNS labels, so the two uses
can't share one secret). All five sandbox-escape tests now pass.

Add test_firecracker_launch: a launch smoke (exec + proxy env) gated on
`FirecrackerBottleBackend.status() == 0` (the `backend status` result),
skipping with setup instructions when the TAP pool / nft table aren't
provisioned.

The git-gate-only-matches-gitleaks-patterns asymmetry the reshape exposed
is tracked separately (#346).

"""Integration: end-to-end sandbox-escape test (PRD 0022).
Brings up a real bottle with a known allowlist + planted secrets,
then runs five attacks from inside the agent container and
asserts each one is blocked:
1. Request to a non-allowlisted hostname
2. Request to a non-allowlisted IP (incl. host-header spoof)
3. Secret exfil via HTTP — path / query / body / header
4. Secret exfil via crafted DNS subdomain + direct DNS query
5. Secret exfil via README link pushed through git-gate
The suite is backend-agnostic — it goes through `get_bottle_backend()`
so another backend can be tested by setting `BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND`.
When unset, this integration test pins Docker explicitly to preserve
the Docker-backed CI path.
PRD 0022 chunk 1 (this commit): fixture + setUpClass +
tearDownClass + preflight tool check. Attack tests land in
subsequent chunks.

# alone (no surrounding keyword), since attack 5 embeds them in a
# bare URL. This gitleaks version only reliably flags separator-
# prefixed tokens keyword-free (ghp_ / xoxb- / glpat-); AWS/GCP-style
# keys need a nearby "aws"/"google" keyword and so are NOT usable
# here. Values are fixed and high-entropy (the github/gitlab rules
# have entropy gates that reject low-entropy bodies).
#
# * DNS secret — used as a hostname label in attack 4, so it must be a
# valid (alphanumeric) DNS label. Its blocking is network isolation,
# not gitleaks, so it needn't match any rule. The separators that
# make the git-push shapes gitleaks-matchable would make them invalid
# DNS labels, which is why the two uses can't share one secret.
