feat(linux-sandbox): support restricted ReadOnlyAccess in bwrap (#12369)
## Summary
Implements Linux bubblewrap support for restricted `ReadOnlyAccess`
(introduced in #11387) by honoring `readable_roots` and
`include_platform_defaults` instead of failing closed.

## What changed
- Added a Linux platform-default read allowlist for common
system/runtime paths (e.g. /usr, /etc, /lib*, Nix store roots).
- Updated the bwrap filesystem mount builder to support restricted read
access:
  - Full-read policies still use `--ro-bind / /`
- Restricted-read policies now start from` --tmpfs `/ and add scoped
`--ro-bind` mounts
- Preserved existing writable-root and protected-subpath behavior
(`.git`, `.codex`, etc.).

`ReadOnlyAccess::Restricted` was already modeled in protocol, but Linux
bwrap still returned `UnsupportedOperation` for restricted read access.
This closes that gap for the active Linux filesystem backend.


## Notes
Legacy Linux Landlock fallback still fail-closes for restricted read
access (unchanged).

codex-linux-sandbox

This crate is responsible for producing:

  • a codex-linux-sandbox standalone executable for Linux that is bundled with the Node.js version of the Codex CLI
  • a lib crate that exposes the business logic of the executable as run_main() so that
    • the codex-exec CLI can check if its arg0 is codex-linux-sandbox and, if so, execute as if it were codex-linux-sandbox
    • this should also be true of the codex multitool CLI

On Linux, the bubblewrap pipeline uses the vendored bubblewrap path compiled into this binary.

Current Behavior

  • Legacy Landlock + mount protections remain available as the legacy pipeline.
  • The bubblewrap pipeline is standardized on the vendored path.
  • During rollout, the bubblewrap pipeline is gated by the temporary feature flag use_linux_sandbox_bwrap (CLI -c alias for features.use_linux_sandbox_bwrap; legacy remains default when off).
  • When enabled, the bubblewrap pipeline applies PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS and a seccomp network filter in-process.
  • When enabled, the filesystem is read-only by default via --ro-bind / /.
  • When enabled, writable roots are layered with --bind <root> <root>.
  • When enabled, protected subpaths under writable roots (for example .git, resolved gitdir:, and .codex) are re-applied as read-only via --ro-bind.
  • When enabled, symlink-in-path and non-existent protected paths inside writable roots are blocked by mounting /dev/null on the symlink or first missing component.
  • When enabled, the helper isolates the PID namespace via --unshare-pid.
  • When enabled and network is restricted without proxy routing, the helper also isolates the network namespace via --unshare-net.
  • In managed proxy mode, the helper uses --unshare-net plus an internal TCP->UDS->TCP routing bridge so tool traffic reaches only configured proxy endpoints.
  • In managed proxy mode, after the bridge is live, seccomp blocks new AF_UNIX/socketpair creation for the user command.
  • When enabled, it mounts a fresh /proc via --proc /proc by default, but you can skip this in restrictive container environments with --no-proc.

Notes

  • The CLI surface still uses legacy names like codex debug landlock.
