fix(server): stage a token-free API helper and drop curl from the access note

The generated Paperclip API access note taught agents to put the run
bearer on a curl command line, which any process running as the same
user can read. Every run now gets a paperclip-api helper staged onto
PATH; the helper reads the token from its own environment and sets
the Authorization header itself, so the token never becomes a
command-line argument. The helper rejects an absolute URL, a
scheme-relative path, and a path containing a backslash, and it
verifies the built request resolves to the configured API origin
before sending it.

Staging now runs for every run, not only a managed-GitHub run, so a
host-GitHub run still gets the helper. The note renders only when the
helper was actually staged, checked through the one env field the
staging step itself sets, so the note and the staging step cannot
drift apart.
