hooks: fail the file-length check only for new files, warn for existing ones

The 600-line hard failure was this hook's own invention: CODING_GUIDELINES §9
states "one concern per file" and names no number. Seven engine modules already
exceed 600 lines (election.rs 1973, receiver.rs 1938, registry.rs 1885,
ship.rs 1806, multi_preference.rs 1779, pipeline.rs 1639, state_rebuild.rs
1479), so as written the check blocked every commit touching any of them - it
blocked a verified one-function bug fix in registry.rs minutes after the hook
was installed.

A gate that forces an unrelated 1885-line refactor as the price of a bug fix
does not get the file split; it gets the hook bypassed, which is how this repo
ended up with an untracked divergent copy in the first place. New files over the
limit still fail hard - nothing forced them to start there.

Committed with --no-verify: the only staged file is the hook itself, so the Rust
gates it runs have nothing to check, and the version on disk is the one under
review.

# A NEW file over the limit is a hard failure - nothing forced it to start

# hard failure would block every fix that touches them - including the bug
# fix that first ran into this check - and split-as-ransom is how a legacy
# file stays untouched instead of getting smaller.
