fix(tui): PermissionsScreen diff mode cycle uses split/auto per spec #1449

Changed DiffDisplayMode enum values from side_by_side/context to split/auto
as required by specification §29570, §30139, §30391.

- Renamed SIDE_BY_SIDE="side_by_side" → SPLIT="split" in models.py
- Renamed CONTEXT="context" → AUTO="auto" in models.py
- Renamed side_by_side_diff() → split_diff() in models.py
- Renamed context_diff() → auto_diff() in models.py
- Updated _DIFF_MODE_CYCLE in screen.py to use SPLIT and AUTO
- Updated all BDD feature scenarios and step definitions
- Fixed broken Behave step parameter renames (restored standard 'context' param)

Closes #1449
