Huanqi Cao 01a3b454f6 fix(sandbox): extend the restricted token's default DACL with a write-SID ACE
New objects created without an explicit security descriptor take
their DACL from the token's default DACL, which CreateRestrictedToken
builds from the user's ambient SIDs — none of them a restricting SID.
Confined children therefore failed the write pass-2 check when
creating anonymous pipes (CreatePipe: ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED, surfaced
as Node EPERM), breaking PowerShell pipelines and other CreatePipe
consumers. Merge a full-access write-SID ACE (Everyone under
read-only) into the token default DACL at init via
SetTokenInformation(TokenDefaultDacl).

Named pipes are EXEMPT: their default security descriptor is the
kernel's PUBLIC template (owner/SYSTEM/Admins full, Everyone
read-only), which no token change influences, so libuv's piped stdio
capture stays denied for confined grandchildren — the POC-documented
boundary, now pinned by the runner suite (inherit/ignore OK, pipe
DENIED) and documented in the README pair. The NUL paragraph is
corrected to the measured matrix (Everyone has 0x1201BF on the
device: cmd/node writes land; Set-Content fails at the PS layer).

/**
* Windows ACL write-restriction sandbox backend for the DeepSeek Harness
* sandbox seam. Mirrors the mechanism of github.com/huoyaoyuan/
* windows-acl-restrict-poc @ 10e4dfb (the fixed revision): a WRITE_RESTRICTED
* token whose restricting SIDs include a write SID (`S-1-4-x-y`) that only
* this sandbox adds to the target directories' DACLs — the intersection
* check then allows writes exactly where that SID has a Write ACE, and
* nowhere else the write SID is concerned (the token's write check ALSO
* inherits the ambient write ACEs of the other restricting SIDs — the
* keep-alive group logon SID + Everyone; Authenticated Users, INTERACTIVE,
* and LOCAL are absent from both lists — see the seam's dual-list contract
* in `packages/sandbox/sandbox-local` and the package README's Modes section
* for the complete boundary). The write SID is the per-WORKSPACE identity
* ({@link workspaceWriteSid}): deterministic from the canonical workspace
* path, so the workspace-root ACE materializes once per workspace per
* machine and every later provision hits the exact-ACE skip — the
* grant-reuse story the per-session random SID paid a full tree propagation
* per session for. Unlike the POC, every API failure throws with the API
* name and exact Win32 code; a child is NEVER spawned unrestricted.
*
* Known boundaries (inherent to restricted tokens, not this port):
* - writes are restricted; reads, network, and process visibility are NOT
* (WRITE_RESTRICTED intersects only write accesses);
* - console isolation is unavailable — children share the host console
* (CREATE_NO_WINDOW / CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE children die with
* STATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED under the restriction);
* - the temp directory and every writable directory must be owned by the
* caller (owner-implicit WRITE_DAC);
* - grants are standing ACE mutations on real directories. WORKSPACE grants
* are deliberately never revoked — the ACE is the cross-session reuse
* cache (revoking would force the next session to re-propagate the whole
* tree). TEMP grants are revocable: dispose() removes them so a standing
* inheritable ACE never outlives its session's temp directory (an
* inheritable ACE on the ambient temp root would otherwise widen the
* SID's write reach to every future temp file). With `manageDacls: false`
* the CALLER owns the DACLs (the sandbox seam's grant reuse):
* init()/dispose() skip grant/revoke entirely and the caller must not
* revoke under live children.
* @module @deepseek-ai/dsh-sandbox-windows-acl
