fix: stabilize Treehouse spawn and teardown validation

[ruby-dlee]

Intent

Repair three stale Firstmate test suites so unattended fleet validation is green without network or access to the live Treehouse pool. The tests must use faithful local Treehouse lease fixtures that acquire, print, and return worktrees, and isolate Treehouse and checkout-refresh state so they pass when ~/.treehouse is empty or absent. Preserve production behavior except for the two explicitly authorized defects the fixtures exposed: canonicalize symlinked project paths before exact-root preflight, and make cleanup of an already-absent exact /tmp/fm- task root idempotent while still refusing wrong paths, symlinks, or traversal. Keep the existing symlink regression pin, add repeat-cleanup and wrong-path pins, and require all three suites plus changed-file fm-lint to pass.

What Changed

• Canonicalize symlinked project paths before checkout refresh and exact-root Treehouse preflight.
• Make cleanup of an already-absent exact /tmp/fm-<id> task root idempotent while preserving unsafe-path refusals.
• Replace stale spawn and teardown test doubles with isolated local Treehouse lease, checkout-refresh, and repeat-cleanup fixtures; update the backend documentation accordingly.

Risk Assessment

✅ Low: The production changes are narrowly scoped and satisfy the stated path-canonicalization and idempotent-cleanup requirements while retaining strict rejection of unsafe paths; the revised fixtures isolate Treehouse and checkout-refresh state without introducing a substantiated defect.

• ⚠️ Captain, canonical fm-lint remains red on unrelated pre-existing ShellCheck findings across unchanged files; resolving them requires a separate executable/test change.
