cschantz 486e8c240d CRITICAL FIX: Increase file lock timeout to prevent data loss
Issue:
- File lock timeout of 5 seconds causes silent data loss during high-velocity attacks
- At 70+ IPs/sec, ~20-30% of IP data writes fail with timeout
- write_ip_data_to_file() is backgrounded, so failures are silent

Solution:
- Increased flock timeout from 5 to 30 seconds (line 321)
- 30 seconds sufficient for sustained 70+ IP/sec attack patterns
- Ensures all IP reputation data is persisted for accurate scoring

Impact:
- Fixes missing IP data during high-velocity SYN attacks
- Prevents incomplete threat assessment of attacking IPs

cschantz 13a7357e12 FIX: Add word boundary matching to CSF/iptables IP grep checks
Apply consistent -w flag to grep commands in verify_ip_blocked()
to prevent partial IP matches (e.g., '1.1.1.1' matching '11.1.1.1').

Lines:
- 1175: csf -t grep check
- 1189: iptables -L grep check
