test: add comprehensive security test coverage

Add extensive test suites for all critical security fixes:
- tests/tools/test_path_traversal.py: Path traversal detection tests
- tests/tools/test_command_injection.py: Command injection prevention tests
- tests/tools/test_interrupt.py: Race condition validation tests
- validate_security.py: Automated security validation suite

Coverage includes:
- Unix/Windows traversal patterns
- URL-encoded bypass attempts
- Null byte injection
- Concurrent access race conditions
- Subprocess security patterns

-Manual Smoke Test Checklist:
-
-1. CLI: Run `hermes`, ask it to `sleep 30` in terminal, type "stop" + Enter.
-   Expected: command dies within 2s, agent responds to "stop".
-
-2. CLI: Ask it to extract content from 5 URLs, type interrupt mid-way.
-   Expected: remaining URLs are skipped, partial results returned.
-
-3. Gateway (Telegram): Send a long task, then send "Stop".
-   Expected: agent stops and responds acknowledging the stop.
-
-4. Gateway (Telegram): Send "Stop" then "Do X instead" rapidly.
-   Expected: both messages appear as the next prompt (joined by newline).
-
-5. CLI: Start a task that generates 3+ tool calls in one batch.
-   Type interrupt during the first tool call.
-   Expected: only 1 tool executes, remaining are skipped.
