fix(javascript): preserve unknown module-alias provenance

Replace the implicit local-provenance fallback with explicit locally constructed values. Keep opaque results, parameters and caught values unknown; follow assignment and sequence results while retaining exact module aliases. Clarify that alias provenance does not represent transitive data taint.

Validation: 26 focused provenance/module-link tests, 135 semantic and graph-builder tests, six application module-relationship boundary tests, and the fast typecheck/lint gate.
