feat(harness): P1 lock-lifetime hardening — PDEATHSIG + SIGTERM/SIGALRM teardown funnel + 60-min hard deadline
- new harness/lifetime.py: install_lifetime_guards() arms PR_SET_PDEATHSIG(SIGTERM) (with
  post-prctl ppid==1 orphan refusal), a SIGTERM handler raising SystemExit through the run's
  finally: teardown funnel (exit 143), and signal.alarm(3600) funnelling SIGALRM the same way
  with a distinct deadline log line (exit 142). Re-entrant signals during teardown are logged
  and ignored (begin_teardown guard) so a second signal can't abort the running cleanup.
- run_recipe_ci.main(): guards installed first thing, before any abra call/lock; both teardown
  finally: blocks (cold + quick) mark begin_teardown().
- .drone.yml recipe-ci step: harness runs under setsid in its own process group; a trap forwards
  the step shell's TERM/EXIT to the whole group so drone cancel reaches the harness instead of
  leaking it (docs/concurrency.md §8.1).
- PEP 446 note on the recipe-lock open(): the fd is non-inheritable, children never carry it.

"""Run-lifetime hardening (concurrency restructure P1).
The concurrency model's invariant chain is:
lock lifetime ⊆ harness process lifetime ⊆ drone step lifetime ⊆ 60-min hard deadline
Locks are kernel flocks released on process exit, so the only thing that needs managing is the
PROCESS lifetime. Three guards, installed at run startup (before any abra call) by
`install_lifetime_guards()`:
1. `PR_SET_PDEATHSIG(SIGTERM)`: if the parent (the drone step shell) dies — cancel, runner
crash, host shutdown of the step — the kernel delivers SIGTERM to the harness, so a dead
build can never leak a running harness that holds locks. Paired with a ppid==1 re-check
AFTER the prctl: a parent that died BEFORE the prctl took effect would never trigger the
death signal, so a harness that finds itself already reparented refuses to run.
2. SIGTERM handler: raise SystemExit so the run's `finally:` teardown funnel executes and the
process exits non-zero. Re-entrant deliveries during teardown are logged and IGNORED so a
second signal can't abort the cleanup the first one asked for (`begin_teardown()` guards
this; the run's own `finally:` blocks also call it so a signal landing mid-normal-teardown
can't abort that either).
3. `signal.alarm(3600)`: self-imposed hard deadline. SIGALRM funnels into the same teardown
path with a distinct log line. Teardown time after the deadline is not alarm-bounded —
interrupting a teardown buys nothing; the janitor (flock probe) is the backstop if a
teardown wedges and the process is killed harder.
