test(lease): stop the host's lease identity leaking into spawned hooks

Four cases in mutator-gate.acceptance.spec.ts fail whenever the suite runs
inside a Mosaic-managed agent seat, and pass everywhere else. They are not a
product defect: the gate denies in all four, it just denies for the wrong
reason.

The specs build each spawned hook's environment as `{ ...process.env, <the few
vars the case sets> }`. Inside a managed seat, process.env already carries that
seat's live lease identity, and whatever the spread does not override survives
into the child. MOSAIC_LEASE_GENERATION_FILE is the one that bites:
read_runtime_generation() prefers that file over MOSAIC_RUNTIME_GENERATION, so
a case that carefully sets MOSAIC_RUNTIME_GENERATION=1 is silently overruled by
the host's generation counter -- 388 on the seat this was found on. The revoke
client reads 388 and sends it, the test broker advances the session to that
generation, and every later authorize() in the case sends generation 1, is now
behind, and is denied STALE_GENERATION instead of the asserted
MUTATOR_UNVERIFIED. The fourth failure (runtime gate status 2 rather than 0) is
the same cause.

Fixed once, centrally: a vitest setupFile scrubs the host lease variables from
process.env before any spec in the package runs, so all twelve spread sites are
covered and a thirteenth cannot reintroduce it. Scrubbing is by prefix rather
than by an explicit list, because a lease variable added later leaks by exactly
the same route and a list would have to be remembered.

Measured, not assumed. Red on origin/next: 4 failed / 16 passed. The same spec
re-run with only those five variables stripped and no code change: 20/20. With
this commit: typecheck clean, package build clean, 1537 tests passed across 85
files, 0 failed. Falsified by unregistering the setup file, which turns the
wiring assertion red.

The eslint change is mechanical: the project service needs root-level config
files listed in allowDefaultProject, which already carries the sibling
packages/mosaic/vitest.config.ts.

Worth recording why it lasted: on a clean checkout and in CI these variables are
unset, so the suite is green and the leak is invisible. It only reproduces in
the one environment nobody runs the suite in.
