feat(miner): add dry-run full-execution mode to the cross-repo evaluation harness

[luciferlive112116]

Closes #7634

Summary

Extends the cross-repo evaluation harness (#4788) from readiness-only to a full-execution dry-run mode, so it answers not just "can the miner form a plan for this repo?" but "does the miner actually produce working, correct code?" — the real signal behind the #4810 launch-readiness bar.

A new --full-execution flag on the existing packages/loopover-miner/scripts/cross-repo-evaluation.mjs runs the discover → plan → code → test loop against the benchmark repos: it drives the configured coding-agent driver to generate a real diff in the local clone, builds the result, runs the target repo's own test suite locally, and checks the diff isn't a no-op. Dry-run only — it edits the clone and hard-resets it afterward; it never opens a PR, never pushes, and needs nothing beyond a local clone + a configured driver (the same safety posture the readiness harness already has).

What's added

• Execution taxonomy (CROSS_REPO_EXECUTION_CATEGORY), extending the readiness taxonomy per the issue: plan_not_formed, code_build_failed, tests_failed, no_op_diff (tests passed but the diff was empty), plus the shared clone_setup / other.
• evaluateRepoFullExecution / runFullCrossRepoExecution — reuse evaluateRepoReadiness for the plan stage, then delegate the code/build/test steps to injectable seams (runAgentAttempt, buildRepo, runRepoTests) so the orchestration + taxonomy are unit-testable without a live agent.
• summarizeCrossRepoExecution / formatCrossRepoExecutionReport — an execution report in the same shape the readiness report already produces.
• CLI --full-execution mode wiring real dry-run seams: build/test spawn the repo's own commands in the clone; the agent seam runs the configured driver via runCodingAgentAttempt and captures git diff, then resets.
• Docs — docs/cross-repo-evaluation.md documents the new mode, taxonomy, and operator prerequisites.

Scope

• --full-execution mode on the existing CLI + lib module (no new script; no live PR submission against benchmark repos)
• In scope (packages/loopover-miner/**, test/**), no blockedPaths; no secrets
• No changelog / site/ / CNAME / lovable edits

Test Coverage

packages/loopover-miner/** is outside Codecov's coverage.include (src/** only), so no patch-coverage gate applies — but the new logic has real unit tests (test/unit/miner-cross-repo-full-execution.test.ts) following this package's conventions: every execution category and the pass path are exercised with injected fake seams, plus runFullCrossRepoExecution, the summary, the report, and the CLI arg/dispatch wiring.

Validation

• tsc -p packages/loopover-miner/tsconfig.json — new module compiles clean; emitted .js/.d.ts committed
• node --check on the emitted .js and the CLI script
• Readiness mode unchanged (--full-execution is additive); CLI --help documents the new flag
• vitest run on the new test suite — green
• Branch current with main

Safety

• Dry-run only — edits the local clone and hard-resets; never opens a PR, pushes, or writes to any benchmark repo
• No forge API calls, no credentials beyond a local clone + a configured coding-agent driver

Review summary
This PR extends the existing readiness-only cross-repo harness with a real dry-run discover→plan→code→test execution mode gated behind --full-execution, reusing evaluateRepoReadiness for the plan stage and delegating code/build/test to injectable seams, with a matching taxonomy, CLI wiring, docs, and a solid seam-level unit test suite. The design (seam injection for unit-testability, shell-less spawnSync, git reset-after-attempt for safety) is sound and closes #7634 as required. However, the reported `built` field is hardcoded to `true` on the tests_failed and success paths even when no build command was inferred or no buildRepo seam ran the build, which corrupts the accuracy of the very signal this harness exists to produce.

Blockers

• packages/loopover-miner/lib/cross-repo-evaluation.ts, evaluateRepoFullExecution: in both the tests_failed branch and the final success return, `built: true` is hardcoded even when `buildCommand` is null or `options.buildRepo` wasn't provided (so no build ever ran) — this misreports execution results as 'built' when the build step was silently skipped, undermining the report's accuracy for stacks without an inferred build command.

Nits — 6 non-blocking

• test/unit/miner-cross-repo-full-execution.test.ts's top comment claims scripts/cross-repo-evaluation.d.mts 'predates' the fullExecution/runFullCrossRepoExecutionCli additions and would fail tsc if imported, but the diff shows that .d.mts file was in fact updated in this same PR to declare both — the comment is stale/incorrect and should be fixed or the CLI wiring should actually be tested.
• packages/loopover-miner/scripts/cross-repo-evaluation.mjs's new CLI wiring (--full-execution arg parsing, buildAgentAttemptSeam, spawnRepoCommand, resetRepo, runFullCrossRepoExecutionCli, main()'s new branch) has zero direct test coverage — worth at least a smoke test given it mutates a real git clone.
• spawnRepoCommand (packages/loopover-miner/scripts/cross-repo-evaluation.mjs) splits the command string on whitespace, which will mis-parse any test/build command containing quoted arguments with embedded spaces.
• evaluateRepoFullExecution's approx. cyclomatic complexity (13) and nesting depth (5) exceed the repo's usual thresholds — consider extracting the build/test stages into smaller helpers.
• Magic numbers like maxTurns: 40 and maxBuffer: 64 * 1024 * 1024 in cross-repo-evaluation.mjs's buildAgentAttemptSeam would be clearer as named constants.
