fix(mitm): wire configureUpstreamCa at boot + after POST so AGENTBRIDGE_UPSTREAM_CA_CERT has runtime effect (R5-1)

In startMitm(), read AGENTBRIDGE_UPSTREAM_CA_CERT (env wins over stored path in
<dataDir>/mitm/upstream-ca.path) and call configureUpstreamCa() at process start;
failures are caught and logged — boot continues without custom CA.  In the POST
/api/tools/agent-bridge/upstream-ca handler, call configureUpstreamCa() immediately
after persisting the new path so the CA takes effect without reboot; throws → 400
with sanitizeErrorMessage (Hard Rule #12).  New test file
tests/unit/mitm-upstream-ca-wiring.test.ts validates the path-selection logic and
the route wiring (8 tests, 0 failures).
