Add a test for the shell-quote failure fallback with a multi-line quote and a chain.

The PR objectives list a warning for this case. The current tests cover the fallback only for single-line input, in the existing test near Line 262 of the file. The new branch at parse-command.ts Line 531 calls parseCommandLine(line). When shell-quote throws, the fallback splits on operators and restores placeholders. Add a case with forceShellQuoteFailure = true and input such as cd a && node -e 'x\ny'. Assert the full commands array. Also add a case where a $(...) contains a multi-line quote.

Review comment at @src/shared/__tests__/parse-command.spec.ts around lines 160 -
224:
Add fallback coverage in the existing shell-quote failure test for
`parseCommand`, using `forceShellQuoteFailure = true` with a chained command
containing a multi-line quoted argument and a command substitution containing a
multi-line quote. Assert the complete `commands` arrays preserve the quoted
newlines and split only at the outer chain operators.

Fixed in f44e53c. The test "splits outer operators and keeps operators inside a multi-line quote in the fallback path" forces shell-quote to fail for cd a && node -e "x && y<newline>z | w" ; ls and asserts the full commands array.

@kanchinadd98 Thanks. The new test covers the chained multiline quote in the forced-failure path.

The requested case with a multiline quote inside $(...) is still missing from that path. Please add it and assert the full commands array.

Require approval for substitutions in executable names.

If git and printf are allowed and gitk is denied, git$(printf %s)k can be auto-approved: the matcher accepts the literal git prefix, but the shell runs gitk.

Treat an executable name containing a command substitution as unknown unless it can be validated safely. A marker alone is not sufficient because * matches every command. Add an approval test for this example with a multi-line quoted argument.
