hir-121: address CTO review (prompt-injection guard + size cap + Vercel tracing)

- Add a prompt-injection guard to the system prompt: contact fields
  (including optional_context) are framed as untrusted data; the model is
  told never to follow instructions, role-play prompts, or formatting
  overrides found inside contact fields.
- Move the request schema into src/lib/templates/personalize.ts so it is
  unit-testable. Cap optional_context to 30 keys at 500 chars each
  (~15KB upper bound) instead of unbounded keys at 2000 chars.
- Wire outputFileTracingIncludes for /api/personalize -> templates/**/*.md
  in next.config.js so the markdown pack ships in the Vercel serverless
  bundle (process.cwd() is the function dir, not the repo root).
- Tests: 5 new cases cover the guard wording and the schema caps
  (accepts at the boundary, rejects past it for both keys and value
  length). Full suite: 20/20 pass.
