Paul BakausandClaude Fable 5 3f9fccdfd0 Live: lock down the local server against same-machine token theft (#304)
Two defense-in-depth layers close the P1 in issue #304, where any browser
tab on the machine could fetch /live.js, extract the embedded token, and
drive every token-gated route.

1. Loopback-restricted CORS. The shared handler replaced its wildcard
   `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *` with reflection gated on a strict
   isLoopbackOrigin() that URL-parses the Origin (so localhost.evil.com and
   127.0.0.1.evil.com fail) and accepts only http/https on localhost,
   127.0.0.1, or [::1]. Reflection always pairs with `Vary: Origin` so a
   cache never hands one origin's authorized response to another. Remote
   origins get no ACAO header; origin-less callers (script tags, curl, the
   agent's own fetches) are unaffected.

2. Token-gated /live.js. The handler now 401s unless `?token=` matches
   state.token, so the bundle (which embeds the token) is no longer served
   to unauthenticated local pages. The injected <script src> carries the
   token: live.mjs passes --token to live-inject.mjs, which threads it
   through every injection path (HTML/JSX tag, Nuxt plugin, SvelteKit root
   component) via a shared buildLiveScriptSrc(). The token stays optional in
   live-inject so static fixture tests keep their bare src.

Tests: new live-server integration cases for the 401 gate, remote-origin
denial, loopback reflection + Vary, and token-guarded routes under a
loopback Origin; e2e session harness now injects with the token.
