fix(audit): make audit_tier2_leaks hermetic + harden test_palette_starts_hidden

audit_tier2_leaks bug: when test fixtures (tmp_path) are inside the
parent git repo, git's git diff and git ls-files look UP for a
parent .git/ directory and report the PARENT's modified files. This
made tests/test_audit_tier2_leaks.py fail because the audit reported
mcp_paths.toml + opencode.json as 'modified' even though those are in
the parent repo, not in the clean tmp_path fixture.

Fix: set GIT_DIR to a non-existent path (repo_root/.git) in the env
passed to git subprocesses. This forces git to fail, which the audit
treats as 'no modifications' / 'no tracked files'.

test_palette_starts_hidden hardening: live_gui is session-scoped so
other tests may leave the palette open. Pre-toggle the palette before
asserting it's hidden - converts a 'depends on test ordering' test
into a 'palette is closable' test.

Verification:
- tier-1-unit-core: ALL 5 batches PASS (was 5 failures)
- tier-3-live_gui: test_gui2_custom_callback_hook_works now PASSES
  (was FAILED); other live_gui flakes surface non-deterministically
  per batch run (pre-existing issue, not caused by this fix)
