Bound Guardian V2 tool actions before risk classification (#38586)

Browse Source 
## Why

Oversized tool arguments could make Guardian V2's model-visible action unbounded.

## What changed

- Cap serialized actions at 10,000 tokens while preserving the trusted tool name and `call_id`.
- Truncate nested string values evenly across the available budget.
- Omit lower-priority fields when the JSON structure alone exceeds the limit, while retaining useful action fields when they fit.

## Testing

Add coverage for oversized nested strings, arrays, and object keys, including spoofed identity fields and omission-marker collisions.
