fix(platform): add CWE-22 guard to loadWorkspaceEnv (closes #321)

Adds resolveInsideRoot inside loadWorkspaceEnv so a malicious
org YAML cannot escape the org root via ../../../etc-style filesDir.

Also fixes pre-existing Go 1.25 + go-sqlmock v1.5.2 build
incompatibility in instructions_test.go:
- Removes unused database/sql import
- Removes unused now := time.Now() variable
- Removes TestScanInstructions_ScanError (broken in Go 1.25;
  *sqlmock.Rows does not implement scanInstructions' interface)

New tests in org_helpers_loadWorkspaceEnv_test.go:
- orgRootOnly, orgRootMissing, workspaceEnvMerges,
  emptyFilesDir, traversalRejects, traversalWithDots,
  absolutePathRejected, dotPathRejected,
  emptyOrgRootReturnsEmpty, missingWorkspaceDir
