Add verbose Learning Mode diagnostics

[Richie Gomez (richiemsft)]

📖 Description

Adds bounded, sanitized verbose Learning Mode diagnostics alongside the actionable denial artifact. Non-actionable and unsupported events retain a closed exclusion reason for investigation without changing policy recommendations, and telemetry reports verbose-artifact production and ETW write failures.

Also applies the privacy-reviewed Microsoft Products consent disclosure and bumps the consent resource version to require renewed consent for the material wording change.

This PR is stacked on #822.

GitHub Actions runs the PR validation build automatically. The ADO pipeline
(MXC-PR-Build) is the Azure version of the PR pipeline, kept in parity with the GitHub
Actions build; it runs on merge to main, and Microsoft reviewers with write access can trigger it
on a PR with /azp run. See docs/pull-requests.md.

If the dependency-feed-check check fails on a new dependency, the crate must be added to
the feed before the PR can pass. See docs/pull-requests.md

The SDK path regresses non-blocking polling and can suppress or silently discard verbose telemetry failures.

Pull request overview

Adds bounded, sanitized Learning Mode diagnostics, publishes them beside actionable denials, and transports them through consent-gated telemetry. It also updates telemetry consent wording and renews consent via resource version 3.

Changes:

• Adds verbose denial aggregation, paired artifact handling, and ETW chunking.
• Extends Windows ETL decoding, filtering, and capture finalization.
• Updates consent resources, SDK documentation, and tests.

docs/telemetry/telemetry.md:309

• This second review-status statement still calls the consent wording version 2 and says its privacy review is pending, although the resource is version 3 and the PR identifies the disclosure as privacy-reviewed. Remove the consent wording from the pending list while retaining any genuinely pending verbose-event reviews.

The version 2 consent wording, verbose event inventory, WinExt
classification, retention, access, regional processing, deletion, and
localization/accessibility decisions require explicit privacy review.

🔵 Needs a closer look

The telemetry projection can emit unvalidated strings, and some new failure diagnostics remain inaccessible or silently discarded.

Previously missed (3) — in code that hasn't changed since the last review.

src/core/learning_mode_core/src/verbose_logging.rs:155

• When total_occurrences is already u64::MAX, record_overflow saturates it at MAX and the following subtraction reduces it to MAX - 1. Recording another event must never decrease the total; update only the overflow counters here because the total was already incremented before the match.
  src/core/mxc-sdk/src/sandbox.rs:178
• wait() can both return an error and append the new verbose-telemetry warning (the added engine test constructs exactly this case), but ? consumes and drops self before either warnings or finalized metadata are returned. Consequently mxc_sdk::run and FFI/SDK callers still cannot diagnose an ETW/artifact failure when backend teardown also fails. Preserve these diagnostics in the error path or return a result type that carries them.
  src/core/wxc/src/audit.rs:225
• If the JSON pair commits but source cleanup produces warnings, and the subsequent ETL move fails, this ? discards those warnings. The operator then sees only the ETL error and is not told that stale actionable/verbose source files may remain. Include accumulated cleanup warnings in the returned error on this branch.

src/core/mxc_engine/src/verbose_telemetry.rs:153

• Only property values are redacted. This artifact is reopened from a caller-selected path and deserialized without any producer identity/integrity check, so a concurrent replacement can place customer content in properties names or provider_guid; both strings survive this projection and are uploaded in mxc.content. Build a closed telemetry projection (for example, derive the GUID from the provider enum and allowlist/drop property names), or bind the reopened file to the artifact produced during teardown.

Copilot's suppressed review also identified three issues in inherited base-PR code that are intentionally not addressed by this stacked PR:

• src/core/learning_mode_core/src/verbose_logging.rs:155 — saturated total_occurrences can decrease in the overflow path.
• src/core/mxc-sdk/src/sandbox.rs:178 — wait_with_output() can lose finalized warnings/metadata when wait() also fails.
• src/core/wxc/src/audit.rs:225 — an ETL relocation failure can discard earlier JSON-pair cleanup warnings.

These findings belong to the underlying telemetry work in #822 (or a follow-up from that branch). This PR remains scoped to the new MXC.VerboseDenials event; its directly related closed-projection finding is being fixed here.
