Assert the complete IKE proposal line.

The single-proposal expectations use assertIn with a shortened value. For example, the expected value at Line [255] is a prefix of the old -noesn output. These tests can pass while IKE proposals still contain ESN variants.

Compare complete stripped configuration lines, or assert the expected proposal followed by the line terminator. Apply this to all single-proposal expectations listed above.

Also applies to: 409-409, 552-552, 628-628, 768-768, 872-872, 935-935, 2013-2013, 2026-2026, 2039-2039

In `@smoketest/scripts/cli/test_vpn_ipsec.py` at line 255, Update all
single-proposal assertions in the VPN IPsec smoke tests, including the cases
around the referenced proposal expectations, to compare complete stripped
configuration lines or require the expected value together with the line
terminator. Replace shortened assertIn checks that can match prefixes, while
preserving the intended proposal values.
