💡 What: Replaced the external os.system("chown -R 1000:1000 /target/home/shane/") call in cidata_ingest.py with a native Python implementation using os.walk and os.lchown.

🎯 Why: Shelling out to chown creates unnecessary subprocess spawn overhead. Further, since the code was immediately following up with a native os.walk loop to apply restrictive chmod permissions to specific secrets files (rclone.conf, claude.json), it was forcing the system to traverse the /target/home/shane directory tree twice. By merging the ownership and permission logic into a single native os.walk traversal pass, we eliminate the subprocess fork and reduce filesystem I/O operations. os.lchown was chosen over os.chown to safely mirror chown -R's behavior of ignoring symlink targets by default.

📊 Impact: Reduces directory traversals for ingested secrets from 2x to 1x and removes the overhead of a system fork.

🔬 Measurement: Verify by executing the cidata_ingest.py tests with python3 -m pytest and ensuring correct ownership mapping against test stubs.

Replaced `os.system("chown -R...")` with native `os.walk` and
`os.lchown` logic in a single pass to eliminate subprocess overhead
and redundant directory traversals.
