Unify Guardian context section collection (#42076)

## What changed

- Add typed context sections for root-conversation evidence, trusted user answers, and conversation transcripts to `codex-guardian-context`.
- Use the shared section registry when building core Guardian prompts and asynchronous Guardian V2 scoring context.
- Preserve source-role labeling while delivering authorization evidence as user-role context, and fail closed when context collection fails.

## Testing

- Cover shared section ordering and role preservation for synchronous and asynchronous targets.
- Verify trusted user answers appear exactly once as user-role input in Guardian V2 approval flows.
