feat(host): F9b RoslynScriptedAlarmEvaluator + #107 close engine DI

RoslynScriptedAlarmEvaluator mirrors F8b's pattern for alarm predicates: caches a compiled ScriptEvaluator<AlarmPredicateContext, bool> per unique predicate, runs against the dependency dictionary with a 2s timeout, and turns every failure (compile error, sandbox violation, runtime throw, ctx.SetVirtualTag attempt — predicates must be pure) into a ScriptedAlarmEvalResult.Failure. ScriptedAlarmActor preserves prior state on Failure so a broken predicate can't flip Active/Inactive spuriously. Program.cs binds both evaluators on driver-role hosts — this fully satisfies #107 ("bind production VirtualTagEngine + ScriptedAlarmEngine adapters"). The two Roslyn adapters together replace the F8 + F9 Null defaults, so VirtualTagActor + ScriptedAlarmActor now run real user scripts in production. 7 new adapter tests cover: predicate true → Active, predicate false → Inactive, cache reuse, compile-error denial, write-attempt denial, empty-predicate denial, post-dispose denial. Host.IntegrationTests now 17/17 green. Closes #80 + #107. All major v2 follow-ups are now complete; only cleanup + observability polish remains.
