srojk34 4612ee9464 security(browser): re-check private-network guard after browser_back navigation
Every other content-returning browser tool entry point
(browser_snapshot/vision/console/eval, and click/type/press via
_blocked_private_page_action) re-checks window.location.href against the
private/internal/cloud-metadata floor after the page could have changed --
because a redirect chain or client-side navigation can land on an address
the initial browser_navigate preflight never saw. browser_back was the one
navigation-triggering entry point missing this: it called
_run_browser_command(..., "back", []) and returned the resulting URL
straight to the model with no re-check.

On a cloud/CDP (non-local) backend, if browser history contains a
private/internal address (e.g. a prior redirect touched an internal host),
browser_back would navigate the live browser there and hand the URL back
to the model with no guard -- the exact class of gap the private-page
guard exists to close, just on the one entry point it hadn't reached yet.

Re-check happens after the navigation succeeds (not before, unlike
click/type/press) since it's the resulting page -- not the one being left
-- whose safety matters. A failed back navigation (no history) skips the
check entirely since nothing changed. Verified live: the new regression
test fails (returns the private URL instead of a blocked payload) on the
pre-fix code and passes after.
