Jeremy Rose 0271c20d8f add codex debug seatbelt --log-denials (#4098) ...

This adds a debugging tool for analyzing why certain commands fail to
execute under the sandbox.

Example output:

```
$ codex debug seatbelt --log-denials bash -lc "(echo foo > ~/foo.txt)"
bash: /Users/nornagon/foo.txt: Operation not permitted

=== Sandbox denials ===
(bash) file-write-data /dev/tty
(bash) file-write-data /dev/ttys001
(bash) sysctl-read kern.ngroups
(bash) file-write-create /Users/nornagon/foo.txt
```

It operates by:

1. spawning `log stream` to watch system logs, and
2. tracking all descendant PIDs using kqueue + proc_listchildpids.

this is a "best-effort" technique, as `log stream` may drop logs(?), and
kqueue + proc_listchildpids isn't atomic and can end up missing very
short-lived processes. But it works well enough in my testing to be
useful :)
