fix: sanitize error responses and remove sys.exit from library code

- Remove palace_path from _no_palace() error response (prevents
  leaking filesystem paths to the LLM)
- Replace str(e) with generic 'Internal tool error' in MCP dispatch
  catch block (full error is still logged server-side via stderr)
- Replace sys.exit(1) with return in searcher.search() CLI function
  (prevents process termination if called from library context)
- Remove unused sys import from searcher.py

Findings: #12 (HIGH), #5 (MEDIUM), #15 (LOW)

Includes test infrastructure from PR #131.
92 tests pass.
