fix(security): #81 Group A — orchestrator attach hardening (squashed) (#95)

Closes the C1 findings from issue #81 plus the round-3/4 follow-ups
on the read-only query path.

Both _attach_remote_extensions (rebuild path) and
_reattach_remote_extensions (query path) now apply the same hard
allowlists for extensions and token-env names, single-quote-escape
the URL, and split built-in vs community install. The CHANGELOG bullet
documents the full scope including the table_schema → table_catalog
fix that made the rebuild path a silent no-op for every connector.

New module src/orchestrator_security.py centralises the policy. Tests
in tests/test_orchestrator_remote_attach_security.py — 28/28 pass.

Refs #81.

+- **Security (CRITICAL)**: hardened the connector → orchestrator trust
+  boundary on BOTH the rebuild path
+  (`src/orchestrator.py::_attach_remote_extensions`) AND the read-only
+  query path (`src/db.py::_reattach_remote_extensions`, called by
+  `get_analytics_db_readonly()` on every request) — issue #81 Group A.
+  Three fixes: (1) DuckDB extensions referenced by `_remote_attach` are
+  matched against a hard allowlist (default: `keboola, bigquery`;
+  override via `AGNES_REMOTE_ATTACH_EXTENSIONS`). Install path splits
+  built-in (LOAD only) from community (`INSTALL FROM community; LOAD`
+  on rebuild path; LOAD only on the read-only query path which must
+  not touch the network). (2) `token_env` names are matched against a
+  hard allowlist (default: `KBC_TOKEN`, `KBC_STORAGE_TOKEN`,
+  `KEBOOLA_STORAGE_TOKEN`, `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS`; override
+  via `AGNES_REMOTE_ATTACH_TOKEN_ENVS`). Names must additionally match
+  `^[A-Z][A-Z0-9_]{0,63}$`. A malicious connector cannot ask the
+  orchestrator to read `JWT_SECRET_KEY` / `SESSION_SECRET` /
+  `OPENAI_API_KEY` and exfiltrate them via `ATTACH ... TOKEN`.
+  (3) The URL passed to `ATTACH` is now single-quote-escaped on both
+  paths. Also fixed a `table_schema` vs `table_catalog` mismatch that
+  silently no-op'd `_attach_remote_extensions` for every connector
+  (the rebuild-path hardening would have been moot in production
+  without this fix). New module `src/orchestrator_security.py`
+  centralises the policy and exposes `log_effective_policy()`, called
+  from app startup so an operator's typo in
+  `AGNES_REMOTE_ATTACH_EXTENSIONS` (which **replaces** the default,
+  not extends it — a setting of `httpfs` would silently lock out
+  `keboola, bigquery`) is visible at boot rather than at the next
+  failed attach. See
+  `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-04-27-issue-81-trust-boundary.md`.

+"""Issue #81 Group A — connector → orchestrator trust-boundary tests.
+
+The orchestrator reads `_remote_attach` rows that connectors write into their
+extract.duckdb, then runs `INSTALL`/`LOAD`/`ATTACH` SQL. This file exercises
+each of the C1 hardening fixes:
+
+- A.1 extension allowlist (refuse non-allowlisted extension)
+- A.2 token-env hard allowlist (refuse well-known runtime secrets)
+- A.3 URL single-quote escape (no injection through the URL literal)
+- Built-in vs community install path split
+
+Each test writes a malicious `_remote_attach` row into a fixture
+extract.duckdb and asserts that the orchestrator either refuses (no ATTACH
+call) or issues a safely-escaped one. We capture SQL strings via a fake
+DuckDB connection so the assertions don't depend on any real extension being
+installed.
