DENIED_PREFIX blocked love.* and ffi.* submodule requires but had no
entry for jit, so require("jit.util") walked straight through to the
real module. jit.util is LuaJIT's own equivalent of the debug library
this file already denies by name: funcbc, funck and the rest read the
bytecode and constants of any function a chunk can reach, which is
enough to recover upvalues -- the real _G, love, io -- that the sandbox
exists to keep out of a mod's hands.
Adding "jit" to DENIED_PREFIX blocks jit.* submodule requires the same
way love.* and ffi.* already are, while leaving the bare jit global
(env.jit, handed over directly for jit.on/off/flush) and a bare
require("jit") untouched -- jit.util is not a field of that table
without its own require, so neither route was ever a way to reach it.
We already ship the DLL, but mods can't ffi-load it under the sandbox, and
the compat love.system shim wasn't passing tls* through either. So wss://
still died on stock builds. Engine loads the dialer at boot; compat forwards
those keys; clipboard/openURL stay stubbed.

The sandbox blocks love.system and love.filesystem, which orphans the
native step bridge (#452, #489): its one consumer can no longer call
syncHealthSteps or read steps_pending.json (#1186).
Adds a "steps" manifest permission (shown to the player like the
others) gating a mod.steps facade: available() probes the bridge
quietly, sync() forwards the async refresh, poll() hands the mod its
copy of a delivery. The engine owns the pending file -- mods never name
a path and receive only { steps, from, to }. Without the permission the
acting calls name it, following the network gate. No new events, hooks
or registries; nothing removed.
RFC 0009. Tests: tests/modkit/cases/steps_bridge.lua (no-mod cold
bridge, permissioned sync/poll, per-mod copies, contract-field
filtering, malformed-delivery drop, unpermissioned refusal, bridgeless
build).

A platform-specific launcher wrapper (a native shell embedding this engine,
owning its own UI around the game window) needs to pause the simulation
while its own UI is on top, live-reload options it wrote outside any Lua
UI, and veto main.lua's "closing the window returns to the Lua launcher"
behavior when it owns that job itself. Implementing this by hand-patching
main.lua's love.update/love.quit directly ties every such integration to
editing the one file every other engine change also touches, guaranteeing
merge conflicts. No existing hook covers "should the per-frame simulation
step run" or "should closing the window return to the Lua launcher."
Adds two generic, additive hooks (src/core/PlatformHooks.lua): core.update
and core.quit_to_launcher, replacing what would otherwise be inline
main.lua special-casing. Also adds Manifest.force_enable_env, letting a
mod that cannot function disabled on the one build where its env var is
set (a platform-bridge mod bundled only with that build) re-enable itself
regardless of a saved disable.
RFC 0006 status: Proposed.
