Subject: [PATCH 4/7] test: expand security test coverage for hardening changes

Add targeted tests for prepared statement migration, output escaping,
auth guard presence, CSRF token validation, redirect safety, and
PHP 7.4 compatibility. Tests use source-scan patterns that verify
security invariants without requiring the Cacti database.
