compute-guard: gatekeeper rules (Mind 10-02) + allow-list exemptions that expire

New kinds: voice-ai host/key (Deepgram, ElevenLabs, Cartesia, PlayHT, Resemble, HeyGen, Google
Vision/Speech/TTS, AWS Transcribe/Polly), cloudflare workers ai (REST /ai/ + wrangler [ai] binding),
talk engine port (:8791/:8788/:8794/:8099). Own kinds so they roll out WARN-first via
COMPUTE_GUARD_WARN_KINDS. Allow entries now need a named exemption (local-user-hardware |
owner-approved | compute-door | guard-self) and an expires date; expired entries stop excusing
code and are reported. ci-hygiene keeps its own (non-strict) format.
