Gate conditional IPsec auditing on native prerequisite evidence (#439)

* Gate conditional stronger-profile IPsec auditing on native evidence

* Use supported literal shells in native prerequisite matrix

* Retain native IPsec fixture diagnostics and allow inactive rule omission

* Expose exact native rule fields when prerequisite classification fails

* Recognize native inactive IPsec rules without granting applicability

* Restore standalone regression loading and valid owned IPsec auth defaults
