validator: align ValidationError JSON to Rust serde shape (6/6 parity)

Closes the 2026-05-02 parity finding: validator_parity probe found
5/6 body shapes diverging because Go emitted {"Kind":"...","Field":"...","Reason":"..."}
while Rust emits the externally-tagged-enum {"Schema":{"field":"...","reason":"..."}}.
A caller parsing the error envelope would break silently in cutover.

## Changes

internal/validator/types.go:
- Custom MarshalJSON emits the Rust shape:
    Schema:       {"Schema":      {"field":"x","reason":"y"}}
    Completeness: {"Completeness":{"reason":"y"}}
    Consistency:  {"Consistency": {"reason":"y"}}
    Policy:       {"Policy":      {"reason":"y"}}
- Custom UnmarshalJSON accepts BOTH the new Rust shape AND the legacy
  flat shape (migration safety for any persisted error rows).
- Unknown variants (e.g. a future Rust addition Go hasn't learned)
  surface as an Unmarshal error, not a silent default.

internal/validator/types_test.go:
- 4 pinning tests anchor the wire format. Failing them = wire-format
  drift; the parity probe is the secondary line of defense.

scripts/validatord_smoke.sh:
- Updated probes to read the new variant-name shape (jq keys[0],
  .Schema.field) instead of legacy .Kind/.Field.

## Verification

- internal/validator unit tests: PASS (4 new + all existing).
- cmd/validatord HTTP tests: PASS (UnmarshalJSON falls through to flat
  shape so existing tests reading ValidationError still work).
- validatord_smoke.sh: 5/5 PASS through gateway :3110.
- validator parity probe re-run: **6/6 match** (was 1/6).

## Pattern

Per architecture_comparison's "use the dual-implementation as a
measurement instrument" thesis: a parity probe surfaced this gap;
50 LOC of MarshalJSON closed it; 4 pinning tests prevent regression;
the probe is the longitudinal gate. Cutover-friendly direction (Go
matches Rust) chosen because Rust is the existing production
contract.
