feat(FN-3731): add action-gate reload endpoint for reloadable exempt-tools

Adds a reload endpoint for action-gate exempt tools, exposing `POST /api/system/reload-exempt-tools` on the dashboard to hot-reload the engine's mutable EXEMPT_TOOLS registry without a restart. The endpoint is wired through `agent-action-gate.ts` with test coverage for reloadable behavior.
