fix(sync): handle redirect + sync-branch incompatibility (bd-wayc3)

When a crew worker's .beads/ is redirected to another repo, bd sync
now detects this and skips all git operations (sync-branch worktree
manipulation). Instead, it just exports to JSONL and lets the target
repo's owner handle the git sync.

Changes:
- sync.go: Detect redirect early, skip git operations when active
- beads.go: Update GetRedirectInfo() to check git repo even when
  BEADS_DIR is pre-set (findLocalBdsDirInRepo helper)
- validation.go: Add doctor check for redirect + sync-branch conflict
- doctor.go: Register new check, remove undefined CheckMisclassifiedWisps
