feat(shell): classify destructive commands + address review comments

- soul/permission: add shell_destructive_reason() to flag irreversible
  commands (recursive force-delete, force-push, hard reset, raw disk writes)
  so auto mode routes them into a deliberation turn instead of auto-approving.
  Reuses the shell_mutation_reason tokenizer (shlex split, wrapper unwrap,
  git-subcommand extraction) for wrapper/quote/chain hardening.
- CodeRabbit review fixes: annotate /recap slash command with -> None; show
  hook "timed out" status even when the hook produced output; make the
  streaming-block test helper fail loudly when the label is missing.
- tests: cover destructive classification, the recap/visualize paths, and the
  hardened test helper.
