feat(linux-sandbox): vendor bubblewrap and wire it with FFI (#10413)

## Summary

Vendor Bubblewrap into the repo and add minimal build plumbing in
`codex-linux-sandbox` to compile/link it.

## Why

We want to move Linux sandboxing toward Bubblewrap, but in a safe
two-step rollout:
1) vendoring/build setup (this PR),  
2) runtime integration (follow-up PR).

## Included

- Add `codex-rs/vendor/bubblewrap` sources.
- Add build-time FFI path in `codex-rs/linux-sandbox`.
- Update `build.rs` rerun tracking for vendored files.
- Small vendored compile warning fix (`sockaddr_nl` full init).

//! Bubblewrap-based filesystem sandboxing for Linux.
//!
//! This module mirrors the semantics used by the macOS Seatbelt sandbox:
//! - the filesystem is read-only by default,
//! - explicit writable roots are layered on top, and
//! - sensitive subpaths such as `.git` and `.codex` remain read-only even when
//! their parent root is writable.
//!
//! The overall Linux sandbox is composed of:
//! - seccomp + `PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS` applied in-process, and
//! - bubblewrap used to construct the filesystem view before exec.
