* fix(ssa): ungate debug_assert_bfs_ordering for release-tests build

The helper at src/ssa/lower.rs was gated `#[cfg(debug_assertions)]` while
the unit test at the bottom of the file was gated only `#[cfg(test)]`.
Since `cfg(test)` is set in release builds with `--tests` but
`cfg(debug_assertions)` is not, `cargo build --release --tests` failed
with E0425. Removing the gate fixes the build; the body is `debug_assert!`
only, so the helper is free in release. Also drop the gate at the call
site to avoid a `dead_code` warning when the lib is built without
`--tests`.

* test(closure-capture): flip JS/TS fixtures to required-finding

The JS and TS closure-capture fixtures pinned the old broken behaviour
via `forbidden_findings: [{ "id_prefix": "taint-" }]`. The engine now
correctly traces taint through the closure boundary (env source captured
by an arrow function, sunk via `child_process.exec` inside the body), so
the formerly-forbidden finding is a true positive.

Match the Python sibling's shape — `required_findings` with
`id_prefix` + `min_count` plus a small `noise_budget` — and rewrite the
companion READMEs and the phase8_fragility_tests doc-comments from
"known gap" to "regression guard".

Verified:
- cargo test --release --test phase8_fragility_tests → 8/8 pass
- cargo test --release --lib bfs_assertion → pass
- corpus benchmark F1 = 0.9976 (TP=205, FP=1, FN=0) — unchanged

# Security Policy
## Supported Versions
| Version | Supported | Notes |
|---------|-----------|----------------------|
| 0.5.x | ✅ | Latest stable line |
| 0.4.x | ✅ | Critical fixes only |
| < 0.4 | | End-of-life |
We follow [Semantic Versioning] as soon as we hit **1.0.0**.
Before that, breaking changes may land in any minor release.
## Reporting a Vulnerability
* **Private disclosure first.**
Please **do not** open public GitHub issues for security bugs.
* **How to report**
1. To report a vulnerability, please use the GitHub disclosure in the security tab to alert us to a security issue.
* **What to include**
A minimal PoC or reproduction steps
Affected Nyx version (`nyx --version`) and OS
Impact explanation (e.g. RCE, DoS, data leak)
* **Response timeline**
We acknowledge within **3 business days** and give a status update every **7 days** thereafter until resolution.
## Disclosure Process
1. We confirm the issue and assign a CVE (via GitHub or MITRE).
2. A fix is developed on a private branch and back-ported if needed.
3. Coordinated release: new version on crates.io + public advisory.
4. Credit is given to the reporter unless they request anonymity.
## Scope & Severity
This policy covers vulnerabilities that let an **untrusted Nyx input** cause:
* Remote or local code execution in the Nyx process
* Privilege escalation, data exfiltration, or denial of service
**False positives / missed detections** in scan results are *quality issues*, not security issues. Please file normal GitHub issues for those.
