fix(lsphp): stop SIGPIPE+pipefail reporting the parity extension as missing

`entrypoint-lsphp.sh` decided whether cac_path_parity was loaded with

    printf '%s\n' "$LSPHP_INFO" | grep -q '^cac_path_parity support => enabled$'

under `set -euo pipefail`. `grep -q` exits on its first match; printf is still
writing the remaining ~40 KB of `lsphp -i`, takes SIGPIPE, exits 141, and
pipefail prefers 141 over grep's 0. The branch therefore evaluated FALSE
*because the extension was present* — present early enough to stop the reader —
and every affected container fell back to the auto_prepend normaliser that a
customer's own .user.ini silently displaces, i.e. the exact failure the
extension exists to remove. Measured on whp02 against the published
cac-lsphp:php83: 5/5 runs status=141 with pipefail, 0 without.

The race is decided by pipe capacity, which is why it reproduced on whp02 and
not on other daemons: while the payload fits the pipe the writer never blocks
and always finishes first. Forced over the limit it is deterministic — 3x the
same `lsphp -i` (122100 bytes) gives 141 every time in the built image.

Fixed by reading with here-strings, which are not pipelines at all, so there is
no second exit status for pipefail to adopt. Same grep/awk patterns; plumbing
only. Same class fixed everywhere it existed under pipefail:

  * entrypoint-lsphp.sh      parity probe, and the SCAN_DIR awk probe
  * entrypoint-litespeed.sh  SCAN_DIR probe (a bare assignment: 141 there does
                             not degrade, `set -e` kills PID 1), and ols_running
  * entrypoint-shared-ols.sh ols_running
  * render-shared-ols-config.sh  site.meta parsing (`sed | head -1`): measured
                             141 at 6000 duplicate keys, which under `set -e`
                             aborts the whole render
  * fpm-parity-check.sh      the `php-fpm -m` pre-flight, whose whole job is to
                             stop a harness fault being blamed on the extension

Also: the fallback used to announce "cac_path_parity extension not loadable in
this image" for every reason the branch was reached, including its own plumbing
breaking — a false diagnosis that sends operators to rebuild a good image whose
build gate passed. Verdicts now carry the evidence they rest on, and a probe
that produced nothing is reported as a probe failure that establishes nothing
about the image. Fail-open posture is unchanged: no probe failure is fatal.

Adds scripts/tests/lsphp-info-probe.test.sh, which runs the shipped probes
(extracted verbatim, so they cannot drift from what runs in production) under
`set -euo pipefail` against a realistic ~40 KB phpinfo body, and statically
outlaws the shape repo-wide. Against trunk it fails, naming all 9 offending
lines. Wired into CI as a new Shell-Checks job, because no existing gate ever
executed the entrypoint's branch logic — the .phpt suite and the Dockerfile's
own `lsphp -i | grep -q` probe (which has no pipefail) were both green for the
release whose entrypoint declared that same extension missing.

Verified: PHP 8.3 --no-cache build green, 10/10 .phpt, 9/9 FPM harness; the
built image logs `path parity = extension` and reports `Rewriting => active`
with .from/.to populated; ext-removed and probe-broken variants each produce
their own honest message and still start.
