feat(evidence): record provenance and stop derived evidence counting as corroboration

Every evidence row now records its derivation (direct, assertion, operator,
external, prediction, consolidation, inference, reflection, dream,
retrieval), its independent-source family (an actor, an integration, an
operator, a prediction) and its root event or memory ids. Confidence
groups evidence by family: the strongest primary item counts in full, each
further primary item adds a quarter, capped at 1.5x, and derived items
count only when the family has no primary member. Three derived
re-expressions of one utterance therefore weigh exactly what the utterance
weighs, while three independent families still add up.

Producers (conversation, association, consolidation, predictions,
metacognition, dreaming, operator and seed input, contradictions) supply
their ancestry. Existing rows are marked legacy_unknown with family =
source; nothing is invented. The belief page shows per-family
contributions and the replay test checks that provenance is reconstructed
identically in the sandbox. Migration 0017 is additive.

- NUL bytes in any request path, query or body are refused with a 400 at the edge instead of surfacing as a database error.
- Security suite: SQL-injection effect test, static allow-list scan for assembled SQL, deceived-mind authority test, garbage model output test, self-preservation vocabulary test; threat model rewritten so every verification cites a test that asserts the claim.
### Changed
- Evidence provenance: every evidence row records its derivation, independent-source family and root ids; confidence groups evidence by family so derived material (consolidation, inference, reflection, dreams, retrieval) never counts as corroboration of its own roots and repetition within one source is capped. Existing rows are marked `legacy_unknown` rather than given invented ancestry. Migration 0017.
### Fixed
- ADR-0002 no longer describes the event sequence as gap-free; cursors tolerate gaps by construction and a regression test proves it.
