fix: resolve CodeQL security warnings

- Replace SHA-256 with scrypt for API key hashing in hash.util.ts and
  the HashApiKeys migration to use a computationally expensive KDF
- Add explicit max batch size (1000) in telemetry service to prevent
  loop bound injection from unbounded user-controlled arrays
- Remove API key snippet from validation error messages in
  openclaw-plugin config to prevent sensitive data leakage in logs
- Add explicit `permissions: contents: read` to CI workflow to follow
  principle of least privilege
