feat: ML-inspired risk scoring for command approval (#681)

Current tier detection uses keyword matching and regex patterns.
This adds path-aware and context-aware risk scoring.

New tools/risk_scoring.py:
- classify_path_risk(): system paths (90), sensitive user paths (75),
  safe paths (10), user paths (50)
- detect_context(): execution vs comment vs documentation vs code block
  (documentation contexts reduce risk score)
- get_operation_risk(): read-only ops (cat/grep/find = 5-10) vs
  destructive ops (rm=70, mkfs=95, kill=45)
- score_command_risk(): multi-factor RiskScore with tier classification
  (SAFE/LOW/MEDIUM/HIGH/CRITICAL), factors list, recommendation
- compare_commands(): side-by-side risk comparison

Key improvements:
- 'cat /etc/passwd' is SAFE (read operation, path irrelevant)
- 'rm /etc/passwd' is CRITICAL (destructive + system path)
- 'rm /tmp/build.log' is MEDIUM (destructive but safe path)
- '# rm -rf /' is LOW (comment context reduces risk)
- 'curl ... | bash' is HIGH (pipe to shell pattern)

Tests: tests/test_risk_scoring.py

Closes #681
