Comprehensive security sanitization library for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers with trusted security libraries

/**
 * Final Edge Case Validation Script
 * 
 * This script demonstrates that all 3 critical edge cases have been fixed:
 * 1. Newline command injection: `ls\nrm -rf /` -> `ls rm -rf /` -> blocked by shell-quote
 * 2. Windows path: `C:\Windows\System32\config\sam` -> blocked by enhanced path validation  
 * 3. UNC path: `\\attacker.com\share\malicious` -> blocked by UNC detection
