Security hardening for Try Cosmos DB connection string flow (#2500)

* Security hardening for Try Cosmos DB connection string flow

- Validate connection string format via parseConnectionString before accepting postMessage
- Restrict localhost:12900 in allowedHostedExplorerEndpoints to development builds only
- Export App component for testability with null-check on render target
- Add 12 unit tests covering origin validation, format validation, and message handling

* Fix HostedExplorer test mock types for compile
