ZDDC d3a9ea7ad9 feat(server): federal-mode reference Rego (parent-deny-is-absolute)
Ship a second parity-tested Rego policy that flips the cascade's
leaf-allow-overrides-parent-deny rule for NIST AC-6 conformance.

Standard cascade (existing access.rego, mirrors internal Go evaluator):
  Bottom-up walk; first explicit match wins; deny-first within a level.
  A leaf-level allow CAN override an ancestor's deny. This is the
  cascade's intentional delegation property — a project-owner who
  re-allows a previously-denied collaborator works as expected.

Federal mode (new access_federal.rego):
  Any deny anywhere along the chain is absolute. An allow only matters
  if no level (any depth) has denied the same email. Required by
  NIST AC-6 default expectations: a central admin's deny at the root
  must be unbypassable by a tenant who controls a subtree's .zddc.

Operators run real OPA with this Rego and point ZDDC_OPA_URL at it;
the internal Go evaluator stays on the commercial cascade. The
toggle is "which policy does your OPA evaluate," not a knob inside
zddc-server.

Surfaced via --print-rego flag:

  zddc-server --print-rego               # standard (default)
  zddc-server --print-rego=standard      # same
  zddc-server --print-rego=federal       # AC-6 strict variant

Parity test (federal_parity_test.go) compiles both Regos and asserts:
  * They AGREE on every cascade scenario where no ancestor-deny
    intersects a leaf-allow (most cases).
  * They DISAGREE — by design — on the three scenarios where the
    AC-6 rule differs:
      - "leaf allows what parent denied" → standard allows, federal denies
      - "deep leaf re-allows after middle deny" → same
      - "glob deny at root + specific allow at leaf" → same

Cross-checks the divergence flag explicitly so any future change that
accidentally collapses the two policies fails the test.

Closes the AC-6 row of the federal-readiness gap analysis (now marked
"partially complete" in zddc/README.md — the full bullet would be a
built-in --policy-mode=federal toggle that also flips the in-process
Go evaluator).

Production binary unchanged at 13.1 MB (Rego files embedded as bytes;
OPA library remains test-only).
