/**
* @fileoverview Remote (SSH) file access for remote-SSH cases.
*
* A remote case's `workingDir` is an absolute path on ANOTHER host
* (`Session.workingDir = RemoteCase.remotePath`, see docs/remote-sessions.md). Every
* file route used to read it with local `fs`, which cannot work: the local
* `realpathSync` in `validateSessionFilePath` fails first, so the request died as a
* 404 "File not found" before a byte was read (#415). This module is the ONE place
* that reads remote bytes, mirroring how `remote-hosts.ts` is the one place that
* builds an ssh command line.
*
* Connection options come from `buildSshConnectionArgs()` — never a hand-built ssh
* line (the COD-107 discipline in docs/remote-sessions.md) — so a proxied,
* custom-port or jump-hosted case reaches its files with exactly the credentials the
* launch used, and `BatchMode=yes` means a host that needs a passphrase fails fast
* instead of hanging on a prompt nothing can answer.
*
* ⚠️ The path is the injection surface: it arrives from the browser (`?path=`). It is
* always interpolated as a single `shellescape`d token, and the whole remote command
* is itself shellescaped into the ssh line, so the local shell and the remote shell
* each see one opaque argument. Never build a command here by concatenating a raw
* path into the string.
*
* Read-only by design: previews, text reads and streaming. Writing to a remote file
* is deliberately NOT implemented (docs/file-viewer-edit-plan.md §6), nor are the
* office-conversion/thumbnail paths that would need the bytes on the server's disk.

* workspace root canonicalized to compare them.
*
* Each path emits exactly one line — `n` when it does not exist, otherwise
* `kind|size|mtime|realPath` with `realPath` LAST so a path containing `|` still
* parses (the earlier fields are fixed and the remainder is the path).
*
* Symlink resolution is portable on purpose: `readlink -f` where available (Linux,
* macOS >= 12.3), else the POSIX `cd`/`pwd -P` fallback, which resolves the DIRECTORY
* chain. Resolution is required here rather than optional: `isSensitivePath()`
* demands an already-realpath'd input, so a remote read must not be able to reach a
* blocked target through a symlink any more than a local one can.
