briandevans 23115b5c0f fix(kanban): restrict managed-scratch roots to workspaces/ dirs only
Copilot review on PR #28819 flagged that `_is_managed_scratch_path` accepted
the entire `<kanban_home>/kanban` subtree as managed scratch storage. With
that, a task whose `workspace_kind='scratch'` and `workspace_path` was
mis-set to `<kanban_home>/kanban`, `.../kanban/logs`, or a board's
metadata directory (e.g. `.../kanban/boards/<slug>` without the
`workspaces/` child) would pass the containment guard and let task
completion `shutil.rmtree` Hermes' own DB, metadata, and log subtrees.

Tighten the guard:

* Allowed roots are now exclusively `workspaces/` directories — the
  `HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` override, `<kanban_home>/kanban/workspaces`,
  and each `<kanban_home>/kanban/boards/<slug>/workspaces` discovered on
  disk.
* Require strict descendancy: a path equal to a root itself is rejected
  too, because deleting a workspaces root would wipe every task's scratch
  dir at once.

Add a regression test covering the three Copilot-named attack paths
(kanban root, kanban/logs, board root without `workspaces/`) plus the
workspaces-root-itself case, and confirm the inner task-id dir still
matches.
