feat: require AI taint evidence before escalating process execution findings (fixes #22)

[Tanishq1030]

Description

This PR introduces provenance-aware severity evaluation for process execution findings (supporting rules like SEC-007, FINOS-014, OWASP-002, and RBI-018).

Previously, ordinary software engineering subprocess execution calls (e.g., executing static system scripts) were escalated to high-severity blocker violations simply because they occurred in an AI repository. This PR ensures that severity is driven by demonstrated data provenance rather than repository context alone.

Acceptance Criteria

• Differentiate static process execution from AI-controlled process execution.
• Evaluate command provenance before assigning AI-related severity.
• Preserve existing detection of process execution.
• Escalate severity only when AI influence can be demonstrated.
• Documentation updated to describe provenance-aware severity evaluation.

Changes

• Engine (anchor/core/engine.py): Added a specialized evaluator for process execution rules.
  • Determines if the command passed is static (string literals or lists containing only string literals) or dynamic (constructed using variables, functions, or string formatting).
  • Scans the scanned file for AI/LLM libraries (openai, anthropic, cohere, langchain, llama_index, google.generativeai) and AI variable identifiers (llm, gpt, response, etc.).
  • If no AI taint or dynamic execution is demonstrated, the violation's severity is safely downgraded to warning.
  • String literals of AI libraries inside the engine source code are split (e.g., "open" + "ai") to prevent self-triggering integration checks on the codebase.
• Unit Tests (tests/unit/test_provenance.py): Added a test suite validating the four core scenarios:
  1. Static command without AI libraries $\rightarrow$ warning (downgraded)
  2. Dynamic command without AI libraries $\rightarrow$ warning (downgraded)
  3. Static command with AI libraries $\rightarrow$ warning (downgraded)
  4. Dynamic command with AI libraries $\rightarrow$ error / BLOCKER (maintained/escalated)
