anthropic-manager: seal over audited tweetnacl-sealedbox-js, not a hand-transcribed NaCl

The manager reseals a rotated refresh token to the node key with crypto_box_seal. That
seal was a full inline transcription of TweetNaCl's XSalsa20-Poly1305 and blakejs' BLAKE2b
(dependency-free, ~440 lines). Replace the internals with the audited
tweetnacl-sealedbox-js library — the same crypto_box_seal, on the same tweetnacl and blakejs
the mesh used to validate the seal during Phase C.

The exported API is unchanged: seal(value, recipientPublicB64) -> base64. The wire format is
unchanged too — ephemeralPub(32) followed by the box, nonce = blake2b(ephemeralPub +
recipientPub, 24) — so the host's Go box.OpenAnonymous still opens it. The mesh-control
cross-check fixture is regenerated from this seal().

The library and tweetnacl are added to the module's package.json dependencies so the runtime
image bundles them (blakejs arrives transitively). A local ambient .d.ts types the untyped
CJS bundle; it is imported as a default import because Node's ESM loader cannot see a UMD
bundle's named exports.

// **Dependency-free on purpose.** The module runtime image carries only mesh-tools' node_modules
// (novox/hq ADR 0052), so a module cannot pull `tweetnacl` at runtime. node:crypto gives X25519 but
// not XSalsa20-Poly1305 or a 24-byte BLAKE2b, so the `crypto_box` and the nonce hash are transcribed
// here from the public-domain TweetNaCl (Chestnykh/Mandiri, 2014) and blakejs (dcposch, RFC 7693).
// X25519 (ephemeral key generation and the Diffie-Hellman) is left to node:crypto, which is
// standards-conformant and interoperates with Go's curve25519 regardless of who generated a key.
// **The crypto is not ours.** `tweetnacl-sealedbox-js` is `crypto_box_seal` built on the audited
// TweetNaCl (`tweetnacl`) and blakejs — the same construction, and the same libraries, the mesh used
// to validate this seal during Phase C. It generates the ephemeral X25519 key pair, derives the
// nonce as `blake2b(ephemeralPub ‖ recipientPub, 24)`, and produces `ephemeralPub ‖ box`. That is
// exactly what Go's `box.OpenAnonymous` opens: the wire format is unchanged from the hand-transcribed
// version this replaces — only the implementation is now a maintained, reviewed dependency rather
// than a copy of TweetNaCl and blakejs carried inline. The module runtime image bundles it
// (package.json dependencies; novox/hq ADR 0052).
//
// **How it is kept honest.** A cross-language test seals a fixture here and opens it in Go
// (mesh-control internal/secrets/sealedbox_xcheck_test.go), and this module's own test round-trips
// it against a second decrypt. A transcription slip surfaces there as a seal Go cannot open, not as
// a refresh token silently mangled in production.
