Why set_node_rotation needs a policy

The tool modifies node rotation properties in Godot, which is a Write operation—it changes engine state reversibly. It does not execute arbitrary code (Execute), delete data (Destructive), or move money (Financial). Severity is medium because changing node rotations could break game logic or visuals, but the effect is scoped to a single property and can be undone via another set operation.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'set_node_rotation' and description 'Set node rotation (2D/3D)' indicate modification of node properties in a game engine scene. This is a reversible state change operation.
