fix(tools): write Gitea reviews/comments via REST POST and verify by exact created id (#865)
All checks were successful
ci/woodpecker/pr/ci Pipeline was successful

Replace the tea-based write + boundary/author read-back with a direct Gitea
REST POST that returns the created record's id, and verify that exact record.

BLOCKER 2 (credential ordering): resolve the acting identity, the write token,
and the read-back token from the SAME effective login. A --login override now
selects the credential used for the POST, GET /user, and the GET-by-id
read-back, so an overridden write is verified against the identity that
performed it -- not the host default. Login-name resolution is best-effort and
non-fatal (the override always wins; otherwise fall back to the host
credential), so exotic/ported hosts still resolve a token.

BLOCKER 1+3 (attribution + tautological tests): the write is now
POST /issues/{n}/comments or POST /pulls/{n}/reviews (event + body + commit_id
== PR head), parsing the provider-returned created id. Verification GETs that
exact id and checks author == acting identity and body (comments) or state +
commit_id (reviews). Keying on the created id closes the concurrency window:
a no-op create yields no id and fails closed with no list-scan fallback, and a
concurrent same-identity record has a different id. The review body travels in
the review submit, removing the separate detached comment.

Tests: the curl stub now models a real server with persistent on-disk
review/comment state -- a POST actually creates+persists a record and returns
its id, and the read-back reads that same state (no fabricated record for the
wrapper to find). Adds same-identity no-op-concurrent and author-mismatch
fail-closed cases for both comments and reviews, and >page-1 pagination
coverage for both. README "Durable review provenance" refreshed for the REST
mechanism.

# Usage: issue-comment.sh -i <issue_number> -c <comment> [--login <name>]
#
# tea v0.11.1 defines no `comment` subcommand under `tea issue` (or `tea pr`);
# the correct invocation is the TOP-LEVEL `tea comment <index> <body>` form.
# Calling the non-existent `tea issue comment ...` form does not error — tea
# silently falls through to a no-op and still exits 0, so a caller trusting
# the exit code alone believes a comment was posted when it was not (#865).
# Because that failure mode is silent, this script never trusts tea's exit
# code alone: after posting, it independently re-fetches the issue's comments
# via the Gitea REST API (curl — urllib is blocked by Cloudflare on this
# host) and fails closed if the posted body cannot be found.
# the non-existent `tea issue comment ...` form does not error — tea silently
# no-ops and still exits 0, so a caller trusting the exit code believes a
# comment was posted when it was not (#865). tea 0.11.1 also cannot reliably
# emit the id of a record it created, so an exit code is the ONLY signal it
# offers — and that signal is untrustworthy. This script therefore does not
# write via tea at all: it POSTs the comment through the Gitea REST API (which
# returns the created comment object, including its id), then GETs that exact
# id back and fails closed unless it matches. Keying verification to the
# provider-returned created id means a concurrent comment cannot masquerade as
# this write and a no-op create simply yields no id to verify.
#
# --login override: the default `--login` is resolved from the local `tea`
# login list for this repo's host (get_gitea_login). Pass --login <name> to
# override that default for this invocation only. The override is appended
# to the tea command line AFTER the detected default, because tea honors
# only the LAST `--login` flag on the command line — a flag placed before
# the default would be silently clobbered by it.
# --login override: the default login is resolved from the local `tea` login
# list for this repo's host (get_gitea_login). Pass --login <name> to override
# it for this invocation only. The REST write, the /user identity read, and the
# read-back are ALL performed with the token of the EFFECTIVE login (the
# override when given), so the write and its verification bind to the same
# identity — a --login override is never written under one credential and
# verified under a different default one.
