Description
Add a generic policy layer that can enforce rules across actions and agents, for example: no two try pushes in the same run, no two patch submissions in the same run, and refusing to submit a patch to a bug other than the one the run is assigned to.

Research direction
Start by mapping the Hackbot actions and agents that can perform try pushes and patch submissions, then identify where a shared policy layer could inspect those actions. Done means the layer can enforce the stated per-run limits and reject submissions for bugs other than the run's assigned bug.
