Make install_core_system.sh work on a fresh machine
Two of the seven modules invoked python_pkg/ paths that stopped existing when
screen_locker and steam_backlog_enforcer were extracted into their own repos,
so the first thing the installer did on a fresh machine was fail. Nothing
installed guard-lib either, which meant the CORE "Midnight shutdown timer"
module always died with "guardctl not found on PATH".

Every module now resolves through install_module_from_repo, and
require_extracted_repo clones a missing sibling instead of only printing
instructions -- otherwise "clone it yourself" is not actionable on the bare
machine this script exists to set up. The clone drops privileges to the
invoking human via sudo -u, because an installer that re-execs under sudo
would otherwise leave a root-owned checkout in the user's home; a sandbox
cannot catch that, since the guest is root throughout. A clone that fails is
still a loud, fatal module failure, never a silent skip.

guard-lib is addressed as the "utils" repo: it is a subdirectory of
github.com/kuhyx/utils, so asking for "guard-lib" would resolve to
~/guard-lib and derive a clone URL that does not exist. It installs first,
before the modules that need guardctl.

Separately, the security hardening suite's screen_locker section hardcoded
$HOME/testsAndMisc/python_pkg/screen_locker/screen_lock.py. That path went
away with the extraction, so all five checks silently SKIPPED -- reporting a
clean run for tests that never executed, which is the exact failure mode
lib/extracted_repos.sh was written to prevent. It resolves the repo properly
now ($HOME is also wrong under sudo), and the assertions are rewritten against
the current implementation: the four symbols they grepped for no longer exist
anywhere, having been replaced by SPORT_CHOICES, SPORT_TABLE_TENNIS,
_validate_table_tennis and MANUAL_WORKOUT_REFLECTION_MIN_CHARS.

On this host that takes the suite from 18 passed / 1 failed / 5 skipped to
23 passed / 0 skipped. The task file's "18 passed / 6 skipped out of 17"
target was stale -- the suite is 24 checks now -- so it could not be matched
literally.
