Malformed permission-hook entries are now flagged with a warning that the neighbouring permission guard may not apply.

New validation logic (the Tl, Zq, gQ, tK, and vt/hQ helpers) detects malformed or unloadable hook entries. It specifically flags cases where a PreToolUse or PermissionRequest hook entry cannot be loaded, warning that this may mean the permission guard it sits beside won't be applied until the entry is fixed or removed.
