Run every lint in a container via Dockerfile.lint (closes #40)
script/lint runs the linter directly when it is already inside a
container and otherwise builds Dockerfile.lint, so the linter never runs
on a developer host. That closes three host-only mechanisms: the result
cache golangci-lint keys on file content rather than location, which
produced a confirmed false green and findings reported against other
checkouts; the host-global $TMPDIR/golangci-lint.lock, which fails a run
in a way no caller can distinguish from findings; and host/container
version skew, which hid thirteen findings on one repo.

Detection is on LINT_IN_CONTAINER=1, set by every Dockerfile, and on
nothing else. The two directions are not symmetric: a false negative
inside a container attempts a nested docker build, finds no daemon and
fails loudly, while a false positive on a host silently lints there,
which is the defect this issue exists to kill. /.dockerenv is therefore
rejected even as a fallback -- measured absent inside BuildKit RUN steps
and present on any host that is itself a container, so it fails in both
directions and one of them is the dangerous one.

Nothing else changes shape. The Dockerfile still runs make check,
script/check still runs test, lint and fmt-check, script/cibuild is
still a single docker build with CHECK_EPOCH and VERSION, and the Go
multistage lint stage and its COPY --from=lint ordering dependency
survive with ENV LINT_IN_CONTAINER=1 added. Dockerfile.lint is the
standalone developer-host path and carries the same CHECK_EPOCH guard,
with the ARG below the dependency layer so only the lint re-runs.

The script/bootstrap golangci-lint install and the per-checkout
GOLANGCI_LINT_CACHE/TMPDIR wrapper are deleted as superseded. Neither
has a caller left. A JS repo's yarn install stays: the rule is that no
lint verdict may come from a host invocation, not that no linter binary
may exist there, and in a repo whose formatter is its linter the
formatter necessarily runs on the host.

golangci-lint config verify is kept, on measurement. Under the pinned
v2.12.2 a bogus top-level key and a bogus key under linters.settings.lll
both pass `golangci-lint run` with exit 0 and `0 issues` while config
verify exits 3 and names them; an unknown linter name fails run and
passes config verify. It needs no network: every case reproduced
byte-identically under `docker run --network none`, in a container where
`getent hosts golangci-lint.run` exits 2.

Comment blocks were cut hard across every file this unit touches.
.dockerignore drops from 67 comment lines to 28, script/cibuild from 17
to 12, script/docker from 18 to 12, and prompts/REPO_POLICIES.md from
1182 lines to 907. What remains says why a line is load-bearing; the
discovery narratives are gone.
