Shay c0d6493219 fix(ask): canonicalize question/proposal path collision check
Compare resolved canonical Path values, not raw string spellings, when
detecting a question_path / proposal_path collision. A relative
proposal_path and an absolute question_path that name the same file now
fail closed with reason "path_collision" instead of resolving.

Adds a regression test for the absolute-vs-relative same-file collision
and keeps the existing exact-string collision test. The new test is
non-vacuous: it fails under the prior raw-string comparison.

Scope: ask_handle.py seam + its test only. No runtime.py, CLAIMS,
metrics, telemetry, schema, or lane-pin changes.

"""Focused tests for the carried-handle ASK acquisition seam.
These tests intentionally avoid ``chat.runtime`` and never call the off-serving
producer (``pass_manager.contemplate`` / ``deliver_ask`` / ``render_question``).
Artifacts are hand-written in the exact producer shape (the same payload
convention as ``tests/test_ask_serving_integration.py``) with the producer's
content-address recipe applied directly — the seam must resolve a *pre-existing*
artifact, so the tests construct the pre-existing state, not the producer call.
