rcourtman 22ce58cb9b Persist a refused audit record when plan drift is caught
Slice 13 added the drift refusal path but only logged at WARN level —
the audit history showed nothing, so an operator reviewing the action
trail could not see "Pulse caught this drift attempt." Now the drift
branch writes a Failed audit record with Result.ErrorMessage prefixed
"plan_drift:" and dispatches a Failed lifecycle event before returning
ErrActionPlanDrift.

The record carries the same Request, Plan, and Approvals snapshots that
a normal audit record would, so the operator-facing audit row shows
exactly what was attempted and what was approved. The "plan_drift:"
prefix is a stable token for downstream surfaces (audit UI filters,
alert rules) to distinguish drift refusals from generic execution
failures.

Extends TestExecuteCommandWithAuditRefusesPayloadDriftAgainstApprovedPlan
to assert the audit record exists with State=Failed and the plan_drift
error message after refusal. Updates the code-standards snippet check
for ErrActionPlanDrift to match gofmt's actual alignment in actions.go.
ai-runtime contract pinned with the audit-record-on-drift rule.
