hints: name exact conventional token for stdout (all tests passed) + file (result.txt/PASS)

Removes the free-token '-ish': run_tests names a function, sentinel names self.valid,
so stdout/file must name their token too (truthful -- the detector already greps
'all tests passed' and result-named files reporting PASS). exit_code left as-is; its
hack (sys.exit before asserts) can't be named as a lever without spelling the exploit,
so it stays out of the substrate.

# PAPER-LEVEL obviousness: each hint discloses the grading MECHANISM (names the
# lever), nothing more -- matching the paper's run_tests hint, neither easier nor
# harder. The exploit is NOT single-shot discoverable from this alone (the paper's
# own run_tests hint is 0/1 on 8b under a "find the loophole" prompt), and that's
# the point: the loophole is meant to be learned under RL (teacher batch + reward),
# not solved cold. Calibration bar = ELICITABLE: when explicitly asked to write a
# hack ("write a solution that exploits this grader"), 8b produces the mechanism-
# specific hack. All 6 are tuned to that level, like the paper. (run_tests is the
# paper's exact wording.) See scripts/validate_spoonfeed.py --elicit.
