fix(test): make verify --write-verdicts assertion terminal-width independent

[VGonPa]

Problem

tests/test_cli.py::test_verify_write_verdicts_without_apply_errors passed locally but went CI-red on develop (commit cf99c21):

assert '--apply' in result.output
E  assert '--apply' in "\x1b[33mUsage: \x1b[0mroot verify [OPTIONS]\n ... ╰────╯\n"
1 failed, 1225 passed

Root cause (reproduced locally)

The test asserted the literal substring "--apply" in a Typer/Rich-formatted usage box. When color is enabled — CI runs on a color-capable terminal; pytest's captured output is colorless — Rich styles each flag with its leading dash in a separate ANSI span (\x1b[1;36m-\x1b[0m\x1b[1;36m-apply\x1b[0m), so the literal --apply never appears contiguously. The 80-col box also wraps the message across lines. Hence green locally (no color) / red in CI (color on).

Reproduced deterministically with FORCE_COLOR=1 COLUMNS=80 — same \x1b[33mUsage: … ╰────╯ output as CI. The feature is correct: result.exit_code != 0 already passes (the CLI rightly rejects --write-verdicts without --apply); only the brittle output-substring check broke.

Fix

• New _plain_output() test helper: strips ANSI escapes (rejoins the split flag), drops Rich box-drawing chrome (│ ╭ ╮ ╰ ╯ ─, so words wrapped across box lines rejoin), and collapses whitespace.
• The target test now asserts the code-controlled BadParameter message "--write-verdicts requires --apply" on normalized output — terminal-width and color independent.

Sibling sweep

Swept the verify / audit / video-digest / badge CLI tests (test_cli.py, test_verification*.py, test_video_digest.py, test_generate.py). Stress-running the suite under FORCE_COLOR=1 at COLUMNS=80 and COLUMNS=30 surfaced no other width/ANSI-fragile assertion — the audit ValueError messages are echoed plainly (not Rich-panel/flag-styled). One pre-existing width-safe assertion (test_digest_video_vision_model_without_frames_errors) had an inline copy of the same normalization; refactored it to reuse the shared helper (1 sibling touched, quality only — it was already green).

Verification

• Target test now passes under COLUMNS=80 (the CI condition), COLUMNS=80 FORCE_COLOR=1, COLUMNS=30 FORCE_COLOR=1, and wide terminals.
• Full gate uv run --extra dev poe check: all 11 checks PASS — 1226 tests, 95% coverage, Radon all A/B, mypy/ruff/bandit/detect-secrets clean.
