feat(exec): add pre-exec hooks module

Adds a Claude Code-style hook system that allows workspace-level scripts
to intercept and approve/deny shell commands before they run.

- Hook discovery from .clawdbot/hooks/ and hooks/ directories
- JSON stdin/stdout protocol for hook communication
- Sequential execution with short-circuit on deny
- Fail-open behavior (timeouts/errors default to approve)
- 10 second configurable timeout per hook

/**
* Pre-Exec Hooks for Clawdbot
*
* Claude Code-style hook system for intercepting and approving/denying
* Bash/exec tool calls before they run.
*
* Hook Discovery:
* - <workspace>/.clawdbot/hooks/ (preferred)
* - <workspace>/hooks/ (fallback, for workspace compatibility)
*
* Hook Format (shell scripts):
* - Receive JSON on stdin: {"tool_name": "exec"|"Bash", "tool_input": {...}}
* - Output JSON: {"decision": "approve"|"deny", "reason": "optional message"}
*
* Reference: Claude Code hooks in ~/code/yieldnest/yieldnest-api/.claude/hooks/
