Remote control tells you when the policy answer is missing rather than denied

Remote Control now distinguishes an unverified org policy from an actual denial.

What

Startup no longer treats an unresolved allow_remote_control organization policy as a refusal. A cache miss now reports "policy unverified (cache miss)" separately from an explicit organizational denial, and a denial of allow_remote_sessions for session mirroring gets its own distinct message.

Details
  • The two org settings involved are allow_remote_control and allow_remote_sessions.
  • The startup path forks on whether the policy lookup returns a cache miss or an explicit org denial.
Evidence

allow_remote_control policy unverified (cache miss)

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