Why write_project_config needs a policy

This tool creates or modifies project configuration data reversibly. While the change persists, it is not irreversibly destructive (configs can be edited or reverted) and does not delete data. The severity is high because misconfiguration of project.godot could break the Godot project, disable features, or introduce security issues, but changes are technically reversible by overwriting the config again.

From the tool's definition write_project_config: 'Write a config value to project.godot.' The tool explicitly writes/modifies configuration data to the project's central configuration file.
