🛡️ Sentinel: [CRITICAL/HIGH] Fix AuthMe Login Spoofing via Chat

🚨 Severity: HIGH
💡 Vulnerability: The bot's AuthMe login detection relied on checking for the absence of a colon in the message text to distinguish system messages from player chat. This heuristic is fragile and allows players to spoof system messages (e.g., "Please /login") to trick the bot into sending its password or performing login actions when not required.
🎯 Impact: Players could potentially trick the bot into revealing its password (if the server echoes commands or if the bot logs it insecurely) or cause state confusion.
🔧 Fix: Updated backend/bot/mineflayer_adapter.py to strictly check the position argument provided by Mineflayer (which maps to message type: chat, system, game_info). AuthMe logic now only executes for system or game_info messages.
✅ Verification: Added backend/tests/test_authme_security.py which mocks Mineflayer and verifies that chat-based spoofing attempts are ignored while legitimate system messages are processed.
