Remote host tool classification extended beyond Bash

Remote hosts now classify more than just Bash calls when deciding what's allowed.

What

When a remote host decides whether a tool call is allowed, the check now runs for a set of tool names rather than only Bash commands, and the host's explanation is inserted as a shell comment only when there is an actual command string. Whether the host's allow-rules are honoured depends on the connection type, not a setting: they are honoured only for session-kind transports.

Details
  • New abort reason ask_level_raised, used when the permission-prompting level rises while a classification is in flight.
  • The tengu_remote_tool_classifier telemetry event now reports how many rules the host has in each list and whether allow-rules were honoured.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
