Replace bare unwrap() with documented expect() across production runtim… (#415)
Audit and remediation pass enforcing the project's
no-panic-in-production policy. Every `unwrap()` on a mutex/RwLock in
reachable runtime code is replaced with `expect()` carrying a message
that explains *why* the lock cannot be poisoned (no code panics while
holding it). Bare `unreachable!()` and `panic!()` calls are updated with
messages that name the invariant being asserted. One genuine bug is
fixed in the process.

## What changed

**`unwrap()` → `expect()` on locks** (`fabro-core`, `fabro-oauth`,
`fabro-util`, `fabro-workflow/*`, `fabro-server`): Every
`Mutex`/`RwLock` `.unwrap()` in production paths now carries the
standard justification pattern: `"<name> mutex/RwLock should not be
poisoned: no code panics while holding this lock"`.

**`unreachable!()` and `panic!()` message quality**: Bare
`unreachable!()` calls in `subagent.rs`, `wait.rs`, `condition.rs`,
`event/convert.rs`, and `server.rs` now name the structural invariant
(e.g. "outer match arm already verified…"). The `panic!` in `tools.rs`
now includes the offending name and the expected format, making it
actionable.

**`sha_newtype` / `short_sha_newtype` in `run_files.rs` — actual bug
fix**: These helpers previously called `unwrap_or_else(|e| panic!(…))`
on git output, meaning a malformed SHA from a real git subprocess would
panic in a request handler. They now return `Result<T, ApiError>` and
propagate errors to callers, which in turn propagate with `?`. This is
the only change that alters observable behavior under failure.

**Demo-only panics in `fabro-server/src/demo/mod.rs`**: Panic messages
updated to clarify that these paths operate on hardcoded compile-time
constants, so the panic is a programming-error guard rather than a
runtime failure guard.

## Design note

The lock-poisoning `expect` messages all follow a single template so
reviewers can quickly verify the claim: if you ever add code that can
panic inside a lock guard scope, the message becomes a lie and that must
be caught in review. The uniformity is intentional.
