The golangci-lint version mismatch detection was doing an early return
that discarded all findings, even from modules that linted successfully.
In a mixed-version setup (e.g. tests/fixtures/proof-repo uses a different
Go version than cli/), real lint errors from passing modules were silently
dropped and the gate under-reported.
Now the version mismatch is recorded but findings are counted first —
only when zero real findings exist does the tool fall back to "skipped".

1. Skip TestRunHarvest_PersistsDiscoveryWarnings when running as root
(root bypasses filesystem permission checks, making the chmod(0) trick
ineffective — fixes CLI test failures in root-based CI environments)
2. Detect golangci-lint / Go version mismatch gracefully — when the linter
is built with an older Go than the project targets, treat it as "skipped"
instead of "findings" (fixes false security gate blocks)
3. Fix gosec severity counting in toolchain-validate.sh — previously ALL
findings were added to SECURITY_HIGH_COUNT regardless of severity level,
causing MEDIUM/LOW findings to incorrectly block the security gate. Now
properly categorizes findings by HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW.

1. gosec G118 false positive: context.WithTimeout/WithCancel functions that
return the cancel func to their caller were flagged as leaking it. Add G118
to the gosec exclude list alongside other expected CLI tool patterns.
2. golangci-lint nolint syntax: proof-repo/main.go used "// nolint: errcheck"
(with spaces) which golangci-lint v2 ignores. Fix to "//nolint:errcheck".
3. radon complexity: reverse_engineer_rpi.py (an AI-authored analysis script)
has 6 E/F-grade functions counted twice (skills/ + skills-codex/ copy).
Exclude skills-codex/ (generated copy) and */reverse_engineer_rpi.py
(analysis script, not production code) from radon scans.
Install ruff, radon, golangci-lint, trivy, hadolint in CI so the
security-toolchain-gate job finds all 11 scanners. Add gosec G704
(SSRF via taint) to exclusion list — CLI makes HTTP requests to
configured endpoints by design.
