fix: reachable_paths does not return all reachable paths (#8510)

* topdown: add failing tests for graph.reachable_paths with shared ancestors

Adds a regression test (shared_ancestor) reproducing the bug reported in
#5871: given a graph where node 4 has edges to both 3 and 2, and 3 also
has an edge to 2, graph.reachable_paths from 5 drops the path [5,4,2,1].

Also corrects the expected result for the existing cycle_1022_3 test, which
was asserting the buggy output ([one,five,six] truncated) rather than the
correct complete path [one,five,six,seven,eight,three].

* topdown: fix graph.reachable_paths dropping paths with shared ancestors

graph.reachable_paths had two bugs that caused paths to be silently dropped
when a node is reachable via multiple routes (diamond-shaped graphs).

Bug 1: the `reached` set was mutated and shared across sibling recursive
calls. After branch A finished traversal and added nodes to `reached`,
branch B would see those nodes as already visited and terminate early,
emitting a truncated path instead of continuing.

Fix: copy `reached` once per pathBuilder invocation and pass the copy to
all recursive calls. Each branch now has its own ancestor-only visited set.

Bug 2: ast.NewArray stores the slice it receives directly (elems: a)
without copying. When sibling calls appended to a shared backing array,
the in-place write by one sibling corrupted the already-committed path
term of a previous sibling.

Fix: pass append([]*ast.Term(nil), path...) to each recursive call,
giving each branch its own independent backing array.
