fix(P02): namespace path traversal (REQ-120, F4)

---ci---
project: orca
phase: 2
milestone: v0.12
status: execute
---/ci---

Add ns.ValidateName rejecting .., /, \, leading -, null bytes,
control chars, spaces, >128 chars, and reserved 'cluster'. Wire into
ns create/delete/inspect/validate/inherit/set-constraint + --parent
flag. Fuzz test + 14 traversal regression tests. No namespace dir can
escape ORCA_HOME.
