feat(mol): add distill command to extract protos from epics

Implements bd mol distill to reverse the spawn operation:
- molecule → proto (spawn is proto → molecule)

Features:
- --as flag for custom proto title
- --var value=variable to replace concrete values with placeholders
- --dry-run to preview the distilled structure
- Preserves full subgraph structure and dependencies
- Adds template label to all cloned issues

Also updates AGENTS.md with landing checklist.

Closes: bd-iq19

## Landing the Plane (Session Completion)
**When ending a work session**, you MUST complete ALL steps below. Work is NOT complete until `git push` succeeds.
**MANDATORY WORKFLOW:**
1. **File issues for remaining work** - Create issues for anything that needs follow-up
2. **Run quality gates** (if code changed) - Tests, linters, builds
3. **Update issue status** - Close finished work, update in-progress items
4. **PUSH TO REMOTE** - This is MANDATORY:
```bash
git pull --rebase
bd sync
git push
git status # MUST show "up to date with origin"
```
5. **Clean up** - Clear stashes, prune remote branches
6. **Verify** - All changes committed AND pushed
7. **Hand off** - Provide context for next session
**CRITICAL RULES:**
- Work is NOT complete until `git push` succeeds
- NEVER stop before pushing - that leaves work stranded locally
- NEVER say "ready to push when you are" - YOU must push
- If push fails, resolve and retry until it succeeds

Long: `Distill a molecule by extracting a reusable proto from an existing epic.
This is the reverse of spawn: instead of proto → molecule, it's molecule → proto.
The distill command:
1. Loads the existing epic and all its children
2. Clones the structure as a new proto (adds "template" label)
3. Replaces concrete values with {{variable}} placeholders (via --var flags)
Use cases:
- Team develops good workflow organically, wants to reuse it
- Capture tribal knowledge as executable templates
- Create starting point for similar future work
