Description
When no -policy-path is given, run a curated built-in pack so tirith scan plan.json says
something useful out of the box. Gate it with --fail-on-severity so the default is not a wall of
red, and keep -policy-path as a full override.

Research direction
Start by tracing the CLI handling for tirith scan plan.json, especially how -policy-path and --fail-on-severity are currently processed. Define the built-in policy pack, its implicit activation, severity gating, and full override behavior; done means a scan without -policy-path produces useful results without an overly strict default, while an explicit path replaces the pack.
