Fix critical TOCTOU bug where concurrent operations could lose dirty
issue tracking, causing data loss in incremental exports. Also fixes
bug where export with filters would incorrectly clear all dirty issues.
The Problem:
1. GetDirtyIssues() returns [bd-1, bd-2]
2. Concurrent CRUD marks bd-3 dirty
3. Export writes bd-1, bd-2
4. ClearDirtyIssues() deletes ALL (including bd-3)
5. Result: bd-3 never gets exported!
The Fix:
- Add ClearDirtyIssuesByID() that only clears specific issue IDs
- Track which issues were actually exported
- Clear only those specific IDs, not all dirty issues
- Fixes both race condition and filter export bug
Changes:
- internal/storage/sqlite/dirty.go:
* Add ClearDirtyIssuesByID() method
* Add warning to ClearDirtyIssues() about race condition
- internal/storage/storage.go:
* Add ClearDirtyIssuesByID to interface
- cmd/bd/main.go:
* Update auto-flush to use ClearDirtyIssuesByID()
- cmd/bd/export.go:
* Track exported issue IDs
* Use ClearDirtyIssuesByID() instead of ClearDirtyIssues()
Testing:
- Created test-1, test-2, test-3 (all dirty)
- Updated test-2 to in_progress
- Exported with --status open filter (exports only test-1, test-3)
- Verified only test-2 remains dirty ✓
- All existing tests pass ✓
Impact:
- Race condition eliminated - concurrent operations are safe
- Export with filters now works correctly
- No data loss from competing writes
Closes bd-52, bd-53

Optimize auto-flush by tracking which issues have changed instead of
exporting the entire database on every flush. For large projects with
1000+ issues, this provides significant performance improvements.
Changes:
- Add dirty_issues table to schema with issue_id and marked_at columns
- Implement dirty tracking functions in new dirty.go file:
* MarkIssueDirty() - Mark single issue as needing export
* MarkIssuesDirty() - Batch mark multiple issues efficiently
* GetDirtyIssues() - Query which issues need export
* ClearDirtyIssues() - Clear tracking after successful export
* GetDirtyIssueCount() - Monitor dirty issue count
- Update all CRUD operations to mark affected issues as dirty:
* CreateIssue, UpdateIssue, DeleteIssue
* AddDependency, RemoveDependency (marks both issues)
* AddLabel, RemoveLabel, AddEvent
- Modify export to support incremental mode:
* Add --incremental flag to export only dirty issues
* Used by auto-flush for performance
* Full export still available without flag
- Add Storage interface methods for dirty tracking
Performance impact: With incremental export, large databases only write
changed issues instead of regenerating entire JSONL file on every
auto-flush.
Closes bd-39
