feat: add Composio WASM tool for third-party app integrations

Add Composio integration as a WASM tool (tools-src/composio/), providing
a single multiplexed tool with 4 actions: list, execute, connect, and
connected_accounts. Supports 250+ third-party apps via Composio's REST
API with WASM sandbox security (fuel metering, memory limits, network
allowlisting, host-injected credentials).

+//! Regression and unit tests for shell command risk-level classification
+//! (issue #172, PR #368).
+//!
+//! These tests live here (instead of inline in `src/tools/builtin/shell.rs`)
+//! because the project's no-panics CI check scans `src/**/*.rs` for
+//! `assert_eq!` / `assert_ne!` / `.unwrap()` in added lines.  All assertions
+//! on the public `ShellTool` API belong here.
+//!
+//! All tests access the shell tool through the public `ToolRegistry` +
+//! `Tool` trait surface (`risk_level_for`, `requires_approval`).
+//!
+//! ## What is tested
+//!
+//! 1. **Risk level tiers** (`High`, `Medium`, `Low`) for representative commands.
+//! 2. **Word-boundary matching** — commands whose names are substrings of other
+//!    words must not be misclassified.
+//! 3. **Pipeline aggregation** — the whole pipeline takes the maximum risk of
+//!    its segments.
+//! 4. **Redirect bypass regression** — Low-risk commands with shell redirections
+//!    must return `UnlessAutoApproved`, not `Never`.
+//! 5. **`git push` regression** — non-force push is explicitly `Medium`; force
+//!    variants remain `High`.
+//! 6. **`risk_level_for` trait method** — delegates to classify_command_risk.
