Description: Tasks refackiew Codex created this PR on behalf of Byron. Byron will review it before any merge decision. Summary Reject CR, LF, and NUL in config section and option names before writing. Apply the same guard to add_section(), set(), set_value(), add_value(), and destination names in rename_section(). Add a regression test for section and option name injection while confirming safe writes still work. Git reference Git itself rejects config keys containing newlines. I checked Git source commit 94f057755b7941b321fd11fec1b2e3ca5313a4e0, where config.c reports invalid keys containing newlines, and local git version 2.50.1 rejects newline-bearing config keys.
