feat(test+sec): E2E faux-provider test + credentials mode self-heal

Two launch-readiness wins for pre.32:

- New end-to-end test at src/agent/__test__/agent-e2e.test.ts uses
  pi-ai's exported registerFauxProvider (we already depend on it via
  the npm package) to script multi-turn assistant responses. Asserts
  our bundle composition routes a tool call cleanly, persists the
  session, fires the right lifecycle events, and doesn't lose anything
  in the message_update → reducer pipeline App.tsx depends on. Three
  tests, ~130 lines, no new mock infrastructure.

- createAgent now accepts a configOverride escape hatch for tests so
  the E2E suite doesn't have to fake env vars or credentials.

- src/auth/credentials.ts load() now stats the file mode on every
  read, warns to stderr and re-chmods to 0600 if it drifted. Audit
  #9: we enforced 0600 on write but never verified on read, so a
  user chmod or a permissive umask would silently leave tokens
  world-readable. Warn-and-heal is the friendly path (refusing to
  load would lock users out over a chmod they didn't realise
  mattered).
