Port: Fix Next.js 16 CSP and parent hook discovery (#710)

Upstream sha 672ca29642.

CSP. `detect-csp` recognizes Next.js 16's `proxy.{ts,js,mjs}` request hook
beside `middleware.*`, but only where it sits at a project root or its `src/`
directory: the scan root itself, or a nested directory carrying a Next
project marker (a `next.config.*`, an `app` / `pages` dir, or a `next`
dependency). A same-named helper elsewhere in the tree is not the framework
hook.

Context. `find_git_boundary_root` gives `resolve_project` a git-boundary
notion: an explicit target inside its own repository resolves against that
repository, and an external target resolves against its own root, so caller
context never leaks across the boundary. `hook_manifest_search_roots`
replaces the cwd/projectRoot/repoRoot triple with a walk up from the
project root that stops at the first git boundary, and each root's own hook
lifecycle config is honored before its manifest counts as coverage.

Verified against origin/main's JS: nine `detect-csp` placements and five
hook-discovery scenarios (enclosing harness root, that root disabled,
sibling target, nested git target, markerless nested git target) produce
identical output.

Oracle: five `csp-proxy-*` cases and five `context-hook-*` /
`context-markerless-nested-git-target` cases. Four route-target goldens were
re-recorded because #710 resolves a `/`-prefixed target outside the
workspace; each was cross-checked against origin/main, and
`surface-brief-write-route` has a DELTAS entry for the one wording
difference (an unwritable filesystem root).

`tests/framework-fixtures.test.mjs`'s new proxy-placement block came in from
the merge importing the deleted `detectCsp`; it now drives `detect-csp`
through the binary like the rest of that file.

+
+Upstream `672ca296` (#710) scopes an explicit `--target` to its own repository.
+A route-shaped target that begins with `/` is an absolute path outside the
+workspace, so route cases that used to resolve inside the fixture now resolve
+against the filesystem root. Every case below was re-recorded after confirming
+`origin/main`'s `context.mjs` / `surface-brief.mjs` produce the same stdout and
+the same exit code for the same run.
+
+- `context-full-target-route`, `surface-brief-path-slash`, `surface-brief-path-outside`, `surface-brief-read-route`: stdout and exit code match origin/main byte for byte; nothing here is a delta beyond the upstream change itself.
+- `surface-brief-write-route`: the write now fails on both engines (exit 1) because `/.impeccable/surfaces` is not writable. Node reports `ENOENT: no such file or directory, mkdir '/.impeccable/surfaces'`; the engine reports the failed write as `No such file or directory (os error 2)`. Same failure, different wording for an unwritable filesystem root.
