feat(security): add command injection prevention to SubprocessExecutor (CLI-6 Priority 1)

Implements CLI-6 Priority 1 (CRITICAL): Command injection prevention.

Changes to SubprocessExecutor:
- Uses create_subprocess_exec() by default (safe mode)
- Added allow_shell_features parameter (default: False)
- Commands parsed with shlex.split() for safe execution
- Security warning logged when shell features enabled
- Invalid shell syntax caught and reported gracefully
- Empty command detection with clear error messages

Security Model:
- Default: Shell disabled, commands executed directly
- Opt-in: allow_shell_features=True enables shell interpretation
- Shell metacharacters treated as literals in safe mode
- Prevents all command injection attack vectors

Breaking Change:
Commands now execute without shell by default. Migration:
  # Before (VULNERABLE)
  await executor.run("echo test | grep foo")

  # After (safe - literal pipe character)
  await executor.run("echo test | grep foo")  # | is literal

  # Or opt-in to shell features (trusted commands only)
  await executor.run("echo test | grep foo", allow_shell_features=True)

Tests Added:
- 15 command injection unit tests (test_command_injection.py)
- 13 security integration tests (test_subprocess_security.py)
- Updated 8 existing subprocess executor tests

Test Coverage:
- Command chaining blocked (;, &, &&)
- Pipe operations blocked (|)
- Command substitution blocked ($(), backticks)
- Redirection blocked (<, >)
- Quoted arguments handled safely
- Invalid syntax handled gracefully

All 782 tests passing.
