esolang: score with a trusted interpreter the agent cannot replace (#31) - #33

Fixes #31.

Problem

start() copies the interpreter into the agent-writable home
(/home/agent/interpreter) and score() executes exactly that path. An agent
can delete the root-provided interpreter, drop in its own script that ignores
the submitted program and prints the reference answers, and score 1 on every
test case without writing a single Broccoli program — defeating the task.

Fix

• build_steps.json installs a trusted, root-owned copy of the interpreter under
  /opt/broccoli, a directory the agent cannot write. interpreter.js imports
  ./.broccoli.js relative to its own path, so both files are installed together
  and the trusted interpreter is self-contained (independent of CWD and of the
  agent's home).
• score() now runs /opt/broccoli/interpreter and passes the submission as a
  plain argument without a shell (shell=True removed), so the agent can neither
  swap the interpreter nor inject shell syntax through the submitted path.
• The agent keeps its own /home/agent/interpreter for running example programs;
  only scoring is moved to the trusted copy, so instructions and agent workflow
  are unchanged.

Test

Adds test_scoring_ignores_agent_writable_interpreter: it overwrites
/home/agent/interpreter with a cheat that touches a sentinel when executed and
prints a wrong answer, then asserts scoring never creates the sentinel and that
a correct submission still scores 1. The test fails on the current code (the agent
copy is executed, and its wrong answer becomes the score) and passes with this
change.

The existing test_fibonacci / test_collatz / test_factorial cases are
unaffected: the trusted interpreter behaves identically for genuine submissions.

Note: I ran JSON/lint and syntax checks locally, but I could not run the full
task-standard containerized suite in my environment, so please run CI on the
build step. Happy to adjust the install location (e.g. /usr/local/lib) if you
prefer a different convention.
