Launcher: engine-probe PATH validation, working .cmd download path; CI: drop stale path, add oracle job

Byte-identical copies of the engine repo's launchers (engine main
af7572c): the retired 3.x npm CLI on PATH or in ~/.impeccable/bin is
rejected by the engine-probe handshake instead of hijacking every verb;
impeccable.cmd's download path is rewritten as straight-line goto flow
(the parenthesized blocks expanded %url%/%cached% at parse time, making
it dead code) with certutil sha256 verification and a windows-arm64 ->
x64 asset fallback; the final error points at the release download
instead of npm i -g (npm still serves the 3.x CLI).

ci.yml: the generated-output check no longer diffs the deleted
cli/engine/detect-antipatterns-browser.js, and a new oracle job fetches
the pinned engine (bun run fetch:engine) and replays tests/oracle/
against it. The job is continue-on-error with a loud warning until the
first engine release exists; flipping it to required is a release-time
toggle, documented in the workflow.

Verified here: sh -n on both launcher copies, bun run build green, full
oracle replay against the rebuilt engine binary green (770 pass, 0
fail), and a launcher behavior test proving a fake 3.x CLI on PATH is
skipped while the download + checksum chain completes against a local
file server.

rem - Downloads are verified against the .sha256 sidecar via certutil when
rem the sidecar is served; on ARM64 the arm64 asset is tried first and the
rem x64 asset is the fallback (Windows on ARM runs x64 binaries).
