Phase 2: verifiers, embedding cache, reward function

- env/defenses/base.py: DefenseVerdict + Defense Protocol (frozen
contract from CLAUDE.md §5.3, written now because rewards.py
consumes DefenseVerdict).
- env/verifiers/exfiltration.py: depth-counted JSON extractor that
picks the first valid top-level object from agent output, plus a
best-effort Python-call parser. Covers OpenAI function-call shape,
internal {"tool", "args"} shape, and natural-language tool calls.
Verifier checks tool name, regex/equals/contains_canary arg
constraints, and a global canary requirement.
- env/verifiers/forbidden_tool.py: union of target_spec.tool plus an
optional forbidden_tools list; only counts actual tool *invocations*,
not text mentions.
- env/verifiers/prompt_leak.py: whitespace-normalized sliding-window
substring match against the agent_system_prompt, threshold from
target_spec.min_leak_chars (default 30).
- env/verifiers/__init__.py: verify() dispatch by target_category.
- env/utils/embedding_cache.py: lazy-loaded
sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2 wrapper. Pre-computes per-
channel benign embeddings on first use; exposes stealth_score and
novelty_score with explicit empty-payload handling.
- env/rewards.py: compute_reward(payload, pg2_verdict, firewall_verdict,
task_success, scenario, recent_payloads, embedder=None). Hard -1.0
safety floor. 0.0 short-circuit for empty/whitespace payload. Six
components weighted per CLAUDE.md §5.2; total clipped to [0, 1].
Pure and deterministic; embedder optional so unit tests don't pull
in the 80MB model.
- tests/test_verifiers.py + tests/test_rewards.py: 31 new tests
covering tool-call extraction across formats, every verifier,
reward weights, safety floor (reward attack + over-length), trivial
payload, full bypass + task success, defense-by-defense components,
reward-hacking sanity (verbatim benign copy stays modest), purity,
and embedder wiring via a stub.

Total: 67 tests pass on Mac venv.
