ChuckBuilds 2a99cf6e64 fix(security): redact URL credentials from pip subprocess output before logging
CodeQL flagged 3 clear-text-logging-of-secrets alerts in
install_requirements_file() (src/common/permission_utils.py:353,360,371).
Pre-existing on main, unrelated to this PR's own diff, but now visible
since the path-injection alerts that previously took priority in the
annotation list are fixed.

The underlying risk is real: pip can echo a private index URL's embedded
basic-auth credentials (from a requirements.txt --index-url line or
PIP_INDEX_URL) back verbatim in its own stderr/stdout on failure, and this
function both logs that output directly and returns it to callers --
store_manager.py's _install_dependencies() logs result.stderr from this
same function too.

Added _redact_url_credentials(), applied immediately after each of the two
subprocess.run() calls (mutating result.stderr/stdout in place) rather
than patching each log call site individually. This closes the leak at
the source: every downstream use -- the three flagged log lines, the
"note" string embedded in the returned stdout, and store_manager.py's own
logging of the returned result -- gets the redacted text for free.

Verified the fixed-phrase "denied" check (`"a password is required" in
result.stderr`) is unaffected, since URL syntax and those phrases don't
overlap -- covered explicitly by
test_does_not_touch_denied_check_phrases. Added
test/test_permission_utils.py (6 tests) covering the redaction helper
directly and both subprocess.run() call sites (the sudo-wrapper branch,
which this repo's scripts/fix_perms/safe_pip_install.sh makes live, and
the no-wrapper fallback branch). All pass.
