Address review findings on the system-install PR:
- cloud_sink: honor SUDO_USER for audit attribution only when euid==0.
Without the gate any user could set SUDO_USER and spoof cloud-audit
attribution to another account. Matches the guard in cmd/setup/cert.go.
- config: divert per-user paths to root's passwd home only on an actual
sudo elevation (euid==0 && SUDO_USER set), not for every root euid.
The blanket root diversion ignored HOME/XDG_CONFIG_HOME and silently
stopped reading genuine root users' config (golden Docker images),
regressing two tests that only fail when the suite runs as root.
Genuine root honors the environment as before; su without - leaves no
marker and stays a documented, loud-failing residual.
- doctor: add a system-only check re-validating that the binary the
installed shims exec is still root-owned and non-writable, catching
permission/ownership drift after install.
- shim: fold the duplicated shim-scan loop into firstShimContent.
- shim: make system executable resolution injectable so tests pass under
umask 002; skip the root-owner test when running as root
- doctor: treat resolution into either the system or per-user shim dir as
intercepted, and collapse the shim-in-PATH check to a single call site
- setup: make remove (both --system and per-user) best-effort with
errors.Join so one failed step no longer strands the other artifact
- shim: allow a group-writable install parent dir (Debian/Ubuntu ship
/usr/local/bin as root:staff 2775) while still rejecting world-writable
and non-root-owned parents
- audit: attribute cloud events to SUDO_USER when running under sudo
- docs: drop the soft-fail event-logging claim (hard-fail is retained)
Doctor now verifies every installed package manager against the shim
directory, and system-install validation only requires a safe parent
directory. Cloud sync records username/uid on invocation context for
multi-user hosts sharing one endpoint.

Require root-owned, non-group/other-writable pmg for --system install;
allow remove without that validation. Doctor checks npm resolution for
PATH precedence, uses ImpliesInterception instead of message matching,
and documents version-manager shadowing. Pass profile bin dir from the
shim manager and note that system config ignores per-user files.

Tighten shim detection, profile repair, and install ordering while
trimming over-specific doctor/info hints from the system-install path.

Install shared shims, managed configuration, and login-shell PATH integration so golden images and multi-user hosts can protect package installs for every user.
