fix: address Greptile review comments on PR #24958

- Fix memory path false positive: only flag root-level MEMORY.md, not memory/ subdirectory
- Fix URL regex missing port numbers: capture host:port, fix normalizePaths breaking ://
- Fix heredoc pipe bypass: check for pipe-to-shell after heredoc closing delimiter
- Fix git commit message regex: handle unclosed and escaped quotes
- Fix catastrophic backtracking: add 10KB input length guard on 2-digit octal regex
- Add tests for all five fixes
