[uk-ai-resilience] Unsafe quoting in maintenance workflow YAML generation (Tier B) #66933

Description

@github-actions

Finding (Tier B, remediation priority: high, SLA: high)

CodeQL alerts #1014 and #1015 (go/unsafe-quoting, critical) in pkg/workflow/maintenance_workflow_yaml_jobs.go lines 587 and 620, raised 2026-10-08. They are not covered by any open issue.

Risk scoring (1-5): exposure 4, patchability 2 (easy fix), detectability 2, fragility 3, ownership confidence 3.

Remediation: use proper YAML/shell quoting or escaping helpers for the interpolated values, add a test with special characters, and recompile workflows. A human should review the fix because it affects generated maintenance workflows.

    Reviewed against completed essentials issue #67452 (#67452) and merged PR #67473 (#67473).

    The merged change emits the maintenance token with the YAML scalar helper and adds round-trip tests for quotes, comments, backslashes, and newlines.
