Thread exec and mailer_send through ctx instead of importing directly

- actions.mjs no longer imports exec from helpers; uses ctx.exec instead
- index.mjs builds ctx via make_ctx(), which injects dry-run stubs for
  exec and mailer_send when --dry-run is active
- Handlers now run fully (including permission checks) in dry-run mode;
  only the actual side effects are stubbed out
