mtk_root: build the rooting toolkit before the phone lands
Prep for a Ulefone Armor X12 Pro (MediaTek MT6765) that has not arrived,
validated read-only against the Pixel 6a that has.

Partition discovery never hardcodes boot vs init_boot. It reads
/dev/block/by-name/, derives the slot scheme from observed _a suffixes, and
picks the ramdisk carrier by preference order init_boot then boot over what is
actually present. The AOSP launch-version rule explains why that ordering is
right; the code consults the filesystem, not the API level. One path therefore
serves both a Pixel (no init_boot, falls to boot_a) and a 13-launch MediaTek
device (init_boot_a taken). Patching the wrong one yields a phone that will
not boot.

Classification refuses rather than guesses: ULEFONE needs a positive MediaTek
signal AND a vendor match, with no "not a Pixel therefore Ulefone" fallback.
Carrier lock is always reported UNDETERMINED, because sys.oem_unlock_allowed,
ro.oem_unlock_supported and settings global oem_unlock_allowed read identically
whether a device is carrier-locked or merely has the toggle off; asserting a
negative would wrongly rule out a path.

No flashing script, deliberately. Automating irreversible partition writes
defeats the confirmation steps that catch a wrong partition or missing slot
suffix.

Three bugs found by running the code rather than only linting it:
- SIGPIPE: `adb version | head -1` under pipefail exited 141 and killed
  00-preflight.sh mid-run
- 20-dump-stock.sh exited silently when no recon had run, because find on a
  nonexistent cache dir fails under set -e
- the read-only static scan had a hole: stripping all quoted strings to avoid
  false positives on printf text also hid `adb shell "reboot bootloader"`.
  Now only printf/echo/cat arguments are stripped, and a negative self-test
  asserts the scan fails on injected commands

Also narrowed a world-writable udev catch-all (idVendor=="*", MODE="0666")
that granted every local process read/write access to every USB device;
commented with a backup, adb connectivity re-verified afterwards.

Validated: 58/58 offline fixture tests; 00-preflight.sh HOST READY (12/12);
10-recon.sh read-only against the Pixel reports PIXEL, boot_a, A/B, no
init_boot, path C-or-D indeterminate, with the device unchanged afterwards.
Untested and labelled as such in READY.md: the init_boot branch on real
hardware, mtkclient over BROM, and the whole flash/verify sequence.
