fix(tools): allow /dev/null redirection and add read/write sandbox split (#967)

* fix(tools): allow /dev/null redirection and add read/write sandbox split

- Remove deny pattern that incorrectly blocked redirects to /dev/null
- Expand block device write pattern to cover nvme, mmcblk, vd, xvd,
  hd, loop, dm-, md, sr and nbd in addition to sd
- Add safe path whitelist for kernel pseudo-devices so workspace path
  check does not reject /dev/null, /dev/zero, /dev/random, /dev/urandom,
  /dev/stdin, /dev/stdout and /dev/stderr
- Add allow_read_outside_workspace config option (default true) so file
  read and list tools are unrestricted while write tools stay sandboxed

* feat(tools): add configurable allow patterns and path whitelists

- Add custom_allow_patterns to exec config so users can exempt specific
  commands from deny pattern checks
- Add allow_read_paths and allow_write_paths regex lists to tools config
  for whitelisting specific paths outside the workspace
- Introduce whitelistFs that wraps sandboxFs and falls through to hostFs
  for paths matching whitelist patterns
- Use variadic constructor signatures to keep backward compatibility
