fix: address codex review round 2

Resolve targetKey by realpathing the nearest EXISTING ancestor and re-appending
the missing suffix, so a not-yet-created file under a symlinked ancestor with
missing intermediate dirs gets the same key before and after creation — keeping
observed-state intact across a write→edit cycle. Make the socket-type probe test
skip (not fail) when a sandbox forbids unix-domain sockets.
