Michael Bolin d73d9c0cbb npm: ship platform packages in Codex package layout
## Summary

The npm platform packages should stop carrying a bespoke native layout now that the release workflow builds canonical Codex package archives. Keeping npm on the same `bin/`, `codex-resources/`, and `codex-path/` structure lets the Rust package-layout detection behave consistently across standalone, npm, and future DotSlash installs.

This changes platform npm packages to stage the `codex-package` artifact for each target under `vendor/<target>`. The Node launcher now resolves `bin/codex` and prepends `codex-path`, while retaining legacy `vendor/<target>/codex` and `vendor/<target>/path` fallback support for local development and migration. The npm staging helper downloads `codex-package` archives instead of rebuilding the CLI payload from individual `codex`, `rg`, `bwrap`, and sandbox helper artifacts.

CI still needs to stage npm packages from historical rust-release workflow artifacts that predate package archives, so the staging scripts now expose an explicit `--allow-legacy-codex-package` fallback. That fallback synthesizes the canonical package layout from legacy per-binary artifacts and is wired only into the CI smoke path; release staging remains strict and continues to require real package archives.

For direct local use, `install_native_deps.py` now points its built-in default workflow at the same recent artifact run used by CI and automatically enables legacy package synthesis only when `--workflow-url` is omitted. Explicit workflow URLs remain strict unless callers opt in with `--allow-legacy-codex-package`.

## Test plan

- `python3 -m py_compile codex-cli/scripts/build_npm_package.py codex-cli/scripts/install_native_deps.py scripts/stage_npm_packages.py scripts/codex_package/cli.py`
- `node --check codex-cli/bin/codex.js`
- `ruby -e 'require "yaml"; YAML.load_file(".github/workflows/rust-release.yml"); YAML.load_file(".github/workflows/ci.yml"); puts "ok"'`
- Staged a synthetic `codex-linux-x64` platform package from a canonical vendor tree and verified it copied only `bin/`, `codex-path/`, `codex-resources/`, and `codex-package.json`.
- Imported `install_native_deps.py` and extracted a synthetic `codex-package-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz` into `vendor/<target>`.
- Ran legacy-layout conversion smokes for Linux, Windows, and unsigned macOS artifact naming.
- Ran a synthetic `install_native_deps.py` default-workflow smoke that verifies legacy package synthesis is automatic only when `--workflow-url` is omitted.
- `NPM_CONFIG_CACHE="$tmp_dir/npm-cache" python3 ./scripts/stage_npm_packages.py --release-version 0.125.0 --workflow-url https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/26131514935 --package codex --allow-legacy-codex-package --output-dir "$tmp_dir"`
- `node codex-cli/bin/codex.js --version`
