feat(#38): trailingSlash policy — preserve / strip / forbid

ky #802 — declined upstream; users want it as a guardrail when a
backend canonicalizes URLs differently.

API:
  createMisina({ trailingSlash: 'strip' })   // default 'preserve'

Modes:
  - preserve: leave the URL alone (default; backward compatible)
  - strip:    remove trailing slashes from the path before dispatch
  - forbid:   throw a clear Error if path ends with /

Carefully:
  - Query string and hash are preserved (we strip the *path* tail).
  - Bare origin URLs ('https://api.test/') are not stripped — there's
    no path component to remove.
  - Per-request override beats instance defaults.

Audit pass 47 (test/trailing-slash.test.ts, 9 tests):
  preserve/strip/forbid behavior, multi-slash strip, query string
  preserved, bare origin untouched, per-request override, baseURL
  resolution composition.

Closes #38.

Suite: 413 / 413 (was 404). Lint+typecheck clean.
