fix(map): keep repo-controlled text and symlinked files out of the SessionStart map (#1070)

ponytail-map.js forwarded raw text from the opened repo into the model
context and followed any tracked symlink.

Injection: the `export { ... }` capture spans newlines and keeps any text up
to `}`, and directory names go in unfiltered. A cloned repo could plant
arbitrary sentences in the hidden session context (export list; folder name
with spaces/colons via git ls-files; folder name with newlines via the
git-less walk).

Symlinks: readFileSync followed tracked symlinks. One pointing at /dev/zero
never returns, so Claude Code's 5 s hook timeout kills the hook with no
output (no ruleset, no map) on every session start in that repo, while the
flag file already says ponytail is on; one pointing outside the repo leaks
that file's top-level names into the context.

- NAME: an export entry is kept only if it is a whole identifier, `type X`,
  `a as b`, or one dotted receiver (`self.helper`). Also fixes `type Foo`
  being listed verbatim.
- SAFE_PATH: files whose path has spaces, quotes, control or non-ASCII chars
  are left out of the map.
- lstat: anything that is not a regular file is skipped.
- tests/map.test.js: regression test for the payloads and the symlink.
