fix(electron): lock in-window navigation to the app's loaded origin (#8230)
* fix(electron): lock in-window navigation to the app's loaded origin

The previous will-navigate handler accepted any URL whose hostname was
'localhost' or '127.0.0.1', which left the privileged main window
reachable by any local web server (e.g. http://127.0.0.1:1337/) — the
preload bridge (window.ea) would have been exposed to whatever page that
server returned. In production the legitimate origin is file:// only, so
there is no excuse for ever navigating to http://localhost in-window.

Compare against the URL the app actually loaded (captured at loadURL
time) instead of a hostname allowlist. http/https requires exact
host+port match; file:// requires the same html pathname; data:/blob:/
javascript: are rejected outright. The same guard is also applied to
will-redirect so a same-origin start cannot be redirected onto an
attacker page mid-navigation, and a defensive did-create-window handler
destroys any unexpected child window (the deny-all setWindowOpenHandler
should make that path unreachable).

Also tightens TO_FILE_URL with the same userData deny used by the other
file-sync IPCs, so a plugin/XSS cannot launder a userData path into a
file:// URL that later flows through READ_LOCAL_IMAGE_AS_DATA_URL.

* fix(electron): reject UNC/remote-host file:// in navigation guard

`new URL('file://192.168.1.100/Applications/SP.app/Contents/Resources/index.html').pathname`
equals the local app's pathname, so the previous pathname-only check
considered an attacker-controlled UNC host same-origin and let it load
in the privileged main window. The app's loaded file:// URL is always
local (empty host), so require `target.host === ''` explicitly.

* test(electron): add userinfo-@-trick navigation guard regression

`http://localhost:4200@evil.com/` parses with host=evil.com and
username=localhost — a naive substring or startsWith check would be
fooled. The existing host-equality check already rejects it; lock that
in with a test so a future refactor cannot regress.
