feat(agent): hardware-salt machine_uid (SPEC-016 Phase B item 1)

Extend the SPEC-004 machine_uid derivation with the locked SPEC-016
hardware salt: combine the Windows MachineGuid with the SMBIOS system
UUID (Win32_ComputerSystemProduct.UUID), falling back to motherboard
serial (Win32_BaseBoard.SerialNumber) + primary disk serial when the
SMBIOS UUID is absent or a degenerate placeholder (all-zeros / all-FFs,
emitted by some OEMs and hypervisor templates).

Signals are read via narrow PowerShell CIM queries (hidden window, no
profile) rather than adding a WMI crate or hand-rolling COM IWbemServices
for two scalar reads. Values are normalized (trim + upper-case) so vendor
case/space drift never perturbs the digest. The combined string is
SHA-256'd into the existing opaque muid_<hex> shape, preserving the wire
identity the relay connect path already reports while making it survive an
OS re-image on the same hardware. Which signal set fed the result is
logged (source label only, never the secret values).

Adds unit tests for derivation determinism + signal-sensitivity,
degenerate-SMBIOS rejection, and signal normalization.
