feat(eve): define answerable setup decisions

[OwenKephart]

Summary

Related to #1786. Stacked on #1668.

Define the shared decision contract for deterministic setup. Questions now have stable answer keys, JSON-safe wire projections, editable-select support, and canonical environment-backed secret handling; composite component selection uses the same Asker path rather than bespoke headless logic.

This PR is intentionally lifecycle-agnostic: built-in prepare/apply orchestration follows in #1787.

Validation

• pnpm --filter eve exec tsc -p tsconfig.json --noEmit --pretty false
• Focused unit suite on the full stack: 162 tests passed
• pnpm exec oxlint packages/eve/src/cli/commands packages/eve/src/setup
• git diff --check

Checklist

• I linked an issue with prior discussion confirming this change is wanted
• I ran the relevant checks from CONTRIBUTING.md
• I added tests and documentation where relevant
• I added a changeset if this touches the published eve package
• DCO sign-off passes for every commit (git commit --signoff)

Build Timing: e2e/fixtures/agent-tools-sandbox

This is an informational timing measurement inside eve build, from preflight through publication. Output-size measurement and profile writing are excluded.

Build mode: deployable Vercel build with sandbox template prewarm included.

• Build pipeline: 1.66 s -> 1.86 s (+196.0 ms) vs feat/add-deploy-loop (625c092).
• Timing is informational: shared GitHub runners are too variable for a hard timing budget.

Additional Suggestion:

GitHub setup completion omits deployment: { required: true }, so the /add flow never offers to deploy despite GitHub requiring a deployment to receive webhooks.
