Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 70fdc172b8 Resolve detect DESIGN.md from each target's project, not cwd
The detect CLI loaded DESIGN.md once from process.cwd() and applied it to
every scan target. Scanning another project's files from inside a different
repo therefore judged them against the wrong project's design system
(cross-project contamination observed during eval work: running detect from
impeccable-evals against a generated artifact elsewhere applied the evals
repo's DESIGN.md).

DESIGN.md now resolves by walking up from each scan target's own location to
its design root: a directory carrying a DESIGN.md is the root; a directory
carrying a project marker (.git / package.json / .impeccable) without a
DESIGN.md is a boundary that stops the walk with no design system, so a
sibling project never inherits a parent's or cwd's rules. A target with no
design root above it falls back to no design system rather than cwd's.
Resolution is memoized per root, so a multi-file scan reads each DESIGN.md
once, and targets spanning projects each get their own. file:// URLs resolve
from their path; remote http(s) URLs get no design system.

Adds tests/detect-cli-design-contamination.test.mjs, which spawns the real
CLI to prove B's file is not judged by A's DESIGN.md, that a project still
governs its own file, that a mixed-project scan resolves per target, and that
a marker-less bare file gets no design system.
