fix(sop-checklist): implement /sop-n/a N/A declarations + review-check 403 fix

Cherry-pick of infra/main-sop-na-fix N/A implementation + follow-up fixes.

N/A gate implementation (mc#1233 follow-up):
  - Adds separate _NA_DIRECTIVE_RE for /sop-n/a <gate> [reason] parsing.
  - parse_directives() now returns (directives, na_directives) tuple.
  - compute_na_state() evaluates N/A declarations per gate with
    team-membership probe (same 403 semantics as acks).
  - Posts 'sop-checklist / na-declarations (pull_request)' status
    with state=success when a gate is validly declared N/A by a
    non-author team member; state=failure otherwise.
  - review-check.sh reads this status to waive qa-review/security-review
    Gitea-APPROVE requirement when N/A is declared.

review-check 403 follow-up:
  - Team-membership API returns 403 if token owner is not in the team.
    Changed from exit 1 (hard-fail entire gate) to continue (skip this
    candidate, check others). Prevents a single 403 from blocking a gate
    when other valid team-members exist.

-# WHY A DEDICATED WORKFLOW (not folded into e2e-staging-saas.yml)
-# --------------------------------------------------------------
-# This is the systemic fix for a real trust failure. Hermes and OpenClaw
-# were reported "fleet-verified / cascade-complete" because the *proxy*
-# signals were green (registry registration + heartbeat for Hermes; model
-# round-trip 200 for OpenClaw). A freshly-provisioned workspace asked on
-# canvas "can you see your peers" actually FAILS:
-#   - Hermes: 401 on the molecule MCP `list_peers` call
-#   - OpenClaw: native `sessions_list` fallback, sees no platform peers
-# Tasks #142/#159 were even marked "completed" under this proxy flaw.
-#
-# A dedicated workflow (vs extending e2e-staging-saas.yml) because:
-#   - It must provision MULTIPLE distinct runtimes (hermes, openclaw,
-#     claude-code) in ONE org and assert each sees the others. The
-#     full-saas script is single-runtime-per-run (E2E_RUNTIME) and folding
-#     a multi-runtime matrix into it would conflate concerns and bloat its
-#     already-45-min run.
-#   - It needs its own concurrency group so it doesn't fight full-saas /
-#     canvas for the staging org-creation quota.
-#   - It needs an independent, non-required status-context name so it can
-#     be RED today (the in-flight Hermes-401 / OpenClaw-MCP-wiring fixes
-#     have not landed) WITHOUT wedging unrelated merges — and flipped to
-#     REQUIRED in one branch-protection edit once it goes green
-#     (flip-to-required checklist: molecule-core#1296).
-#
-# THE ASSERTION IS NOT A PROXY. The driving script
-# tests/e2e/test_peer_visibility_mcp_staging.sh issues the byte-for-byte
-# JSON-RPC `tools/call name=list_peers` envelope to `POST
-# /workspaces/:id/mcp` using each workspace's OWN bearer token, through
-# the real WorkspaceAuth + MCPRateLimiter middleware chain — the exact
-# call mcp_molecule_list_peers makes from a canvas agent. It does NOT
-# read a registry row, /health, the heartbeat table, or
-# GET /registry/:id/peers.
-#
-# HONEST GATE — NO continue-on-error. Per feedback_fix_root_not_symptom a
-# fake-green mask would defeat the entire purpose. This workflow goes red
-# on today's broken behavior and green only when the root-cause fixes
-# actually land. It is intentionally NOT in branch_protections — see PR

-# Staging E2E — fresh-provision peer-visibility gate via the LITERAL MCP path.
-#
-# WHY THIS EXISTS
-# ---------------
-# Hermes and OpenClaw were repeatedly reported "fleet-verified / cascade-
-# complete" because the *proxy* signals were green:
-#   - registry-registration + heartbeat (Hermes), and
-#   - model round-trip 200 (OpenClaw).
-# But a freshly-provisioned workspace, asked on canvas "can you see your
-# peers", actually FAILS:
-#   - Hermes: 401 on the molecule MCP `list_peers` call,
-#   - OpenClaw: falls back to native `sessions_list`, sees no platform peers.
-# Tasks #142/#159 were even marked "completed" under this same proxy flaw.
-#
-# This script codifies the LITERAL user-facing path so it can never silently
-# regress: it provisions a brand-new throwaway org + sibling workspaces via
-# the real control-plane provisioning path, then for each runtime that should
-# have platform peer-visibility it drives the EXACT MCP call the canvas agent
-# makes — `POST /workspaces/:id/mcp` JSON-RPC tools/call name=list_peers,
-# authenticated by that workspace's own bearer token through the real
-# WorkspaceAuth + MCPRateLimiter middleware chain. It then asserts:
-#   (1) HTTP 200,
-#   (2) JSON-RPC `result` present (NOT an `error` object — a -32000
-#       "tool call failed" or a 401 from WorkspaceAuth fails here),
-#   (3) the returned peer set CONTAINS the other provisioned sibling
-#       workspace IDs — not an empty list, not a native-sessions fallback.
-#
-# This is NOT a proxy. It does not look at a registry row, /health, the
-# heartbeat table, or `GET /registry/:id/peers`. It drives the byte-for-byte
-# JSON-RPC envelope that mcp_molecule_list_peers issues from a real agent.
-#
-# It is written to FAIL on today's broken Hermes/OpenClaw behavior and go
-# green only when the in-flight root-cause fixes (Hermes-401, OpenClaw MCP
-# wiring) actually land. That is the point: it is the objective proof gate.
-#
-# AUTH MODEL (mirrors tests/e2e/test_staging_full_saas.sh)
-# --------------------------------------------------------
-#   Single MOLECULE_ADMIN_TOKEN (= CP_ADMIN_API_TOKEN on Railway staging)
-#   drives: POST /cp/admin/orgs (provision), GET
-#   /cp/admin/orgs/:slug/admin-token (per-tenant token), DELETE
-#   /cp/admin/tenants/:slug (teardown). The per-tenant admin token drives
-#   tenant workspace creation; each workspace's OWN auth_token (returned by
-#   POST /workspaces) drives its MCP call.
-#

-// Regression coverage for the POLL-mode arm of the canvas user-message
-// data-loss bug (internal#470 sibling — tracked on internal#471).
-//
-// Bug (reported 2026-05-16 by CTO Hongming): "in canvas i sometimes lose
-// my own message when i exit chat". The push-mode arm was fixed by
-// #1347 (persistUserMessageAtIngest — a SYNCHRONOUS, before-dispatch,
-// context.WithoutCancel INSERT). #1347's framing asserted "poll-mode
-// workspaces were never affected — logA2AReceiveQueued already persists
-// at ingest". That assertion is OVERSTATED.
-//
-// Hongming's tenant (slug `hongming`, org 2c940477-...) has 4 workspaces,
-// ALL runtime=external with empty URL → ALL delivery_mode=poll (proven
-// empirically: a benign A2A probe returns the synthetic
-// {"delivery_mode":"poll","status":"queued"} envelope for every one).
-// So his reported loss is the POLL path, NOT the push path #1347 fixes.
-//
-// Root cause (poll arm): the poll-mode short-circuit (a2a_proxy.go ~402)
-// calls logA2AReceiveQueued and then IMMEDIATELY returns the synthetic
-// 200 {status:"queued"} to the canvas. But logA2AReceiveQueued's durable
-// INSERT runs inside h.goAsync(...) — a DETACHED goroutine with NO
-// happens-before barrier against the HTTP response. The canvas sees 200
-// ("message accepted") while the activity_logs row may not yet be — and,
-// on a workspace-server restart / deploy / OOM / EC2 hibernation between
-// the 200 and the goroutine's commit, NEVER will be — durable. There is
-// also no fallback (unlike push-mode's legacy-INSERT fallback): a
-// swallowed LogActivity error loses the message with only a log line.
-// Chat-history reads activity_logs (postgres_store.go:165-187); a missing
-// row = message gone on reopen. That is exactly Hongming's symptom.
-//
-// Fix (parity with push-mode): the poll-mode ingest persist of the
-// canvas user message must be SYNCHRONOUS — committed before the queued
-// 200 is returned — on a context.WithoutCancel derived context, so a
-// client disconnect on chat-exit and a post-response restart cannot lose
-// it. Behavior is never worse than today (best-effort; a persist error
-// still returns queued).
-//
-// TEST DESIGN NOTE: sqlmock.ExpectationsWereMet() hangs indefinitely if
-// the expected query never fires. We use a select+default+time.After
-// pattern so the test FAILS fast (not hangs) when the production code
-// regresses to async (the INSERT never fires before handler returns),
-// while still returning promptly when all expectations are met. The
-// insertDelay is kept small (50ms) to minimise suite-level timing
-// impact under -race detection, where mock delays are amplified by
-// the instrumenter's goroutine overhead.
