Anso 1c82e3e1d4 fix: contain file-explorer writes and browse reachable out-of-base binds (#1465)
The file-explorer editor save resolved a dangling symlink leaf to the link
path and wrote through it with a plain writeFile, which followed the link and
created a file outside the bind/stack root. Reject a resolved leaf that is
itself a symlink (mirroring the managed-stack guard) and promote the save
through the atomic stage-and-rename helper, so the editor save matches its
documented atomicity and can never leave a partial file or land outside the
root.

Bind-root discovery reported every source outside the compose base as
unreachable without probing it, so a config directory mounted into both the
app and the Sencho container was wrongly non-browsable. Probe the declared
source as Sencho actually sees it; dangerous host roots, docker-socket mounts,
and managed-area overlaps stay blocked, and the dangerous classification also
reads the literal declared source so it holds across platforms.

/**
* Symlink/junction escape hardening for FileSystemService's legacy managed-stack
* methods. A stack directory (or a managed .env / compose.yaml leaf) that is a
* symlink pointing outside the compose root must be rejected before the
* read/write/delete sink follows the link out of tree. The lexical inline
* barriers cannot see symlinks; assertRealWithinBase realpaths both sides.
*
* Real symlink creation needs admin or Developer Mode on Windows, so the escape
* cases run on Linux/macOS (CI) and skip on the Windows dev box, mirroring
* filesystem-stack-paths.test.ts. The happy-path block at the bottom runs on
* every platform and confirms the guard is a no-op on normal directories.
