NEW-UXA11Y-11: require first AND last name to match (close a verification bypass)

Codex review: name_matches accepted any non-empty ordered subset, so a single
common token ("John" or "Doe") matched "John Michael Doe" — a student id plus one
name token could claim the verified role for someone else. Now both the first and
last tokens must match, middle tokens the student typed must appear in the roster
in order (omitted middles still fine), and a single token, an arbitrary subset,
or a wrong first/last name is rejected. Add tests: single-token input, wrong
surname and wrong first name do NOT verify; full name and first+last with the
middle omitted do.
