Major refactor of molecular chemistry to make protos ephemeral:
- Formulas are now cooked directly to in-memory TemplateSubgraph
- No more proto beads stored in the database
Changes:
- cook.go: Add cookFormulaToSubgraph() and resolveAndCookFormula()
for in-memory formula cooking
- template.go: Add VarDefs field to TemplateSubgraph for default
value handling, add extractRequiredVariables() and
applyVariableDefaults() helpers
- pour.go: Try formula loading first for any name (not just mol-)
- wisp.go: Same pattern as pour
- mol_bond.go: Use resolveOrCookToSubgraph() for in-memory subgraphs
- mol_catalog.go: List formulas from disk instead of DB proto beads
- mol_distill.go: Output .formula.json files instead of proto beads
Flow: Formula (.formula.json) -> pour/wisp (cook inline) -> Mol/Wisp

Remove resolvePartialIDDirect function and context import that became
dead code after switching to resolveOrCookFormula in bd-rciw.

Changes:
- bd cook: outputs proto JSON to stdout by default, add --persist flag
for legacy behavior (write to database)
- bd pour: accepts formula names, cooks inline as ephemeral proto,
spawns mol, then cleans up temporary proto
- bd wisp create: accepts formula names, cooks inline as ephemeral proto,
creates wisp, then cleans up temporary proto
- bd mol bond: already supported ephemeral protos (gt-8tmz.25)
The ephemeral proto pattern avoids persisting templates in the database.
Protos are only needed temporarily during spawn operations - the spawned
mol/wisp is what gets persisted.

Added type-specific ID prefixes for better visual recognition:
- `bd pour` now generates IDs with "mol-" prefix
- `bd wisp create` now generates IDs with "wisp-" prefix
- Regular issues continue using the configured prefix
Implementation:
- Added IDPrefix field to types.Issue (internal, not exported to JSONL)
- Added Prefix field to CloneOptions for spawning operations
- Added IDPrefix to RPC CreateArgs for daemon communication
- Updated storage layer to use issue.IDPrefix when generating IDs
- Updated pour.go and wisp.go to pass appropriate prefixes
This enables instant visual recognition of entity types and prevents
accidental modification of templates.

Wisps are now just issues with Wisp=true flag in the main database,
not exported to JSONL. Removes all references to .beads-wisp/ directory.
- Update docs: CLAUDE.md, CLI_REFERENCE.md, MOLECULES.md, DELETIONS.md
- Update code comments: wisp.go
- Update changelog and info.go version notes

Progress on eliminating separate .beads-wisp/ directory:
- Add --wisp flag to bd create (creates issue with Wisp=true)
- Update bd wisp create to use main db instead of separate wisp storage
- Update bd wisp list to query main db with Wisp filter
- Update bd wisp gc to work with main database
- Add Wisp field to RPC ListArgs for daemon mode support
- Fix terminology: use "old/abandoned" for time-based cleanup,
reserve "stale" for graph-pressure staleness (per Gas Town taxonomy)
Still TODO:
- Finish mol squash simplification (remove cross-store logic)
- Remove runWispSquash and squashWispToPermanent functions
- Update mol burn similarly
- Deprecate .beads-wisp/ functions in internal/beads/beads.go
- Test all changes

Remove the spawn command from bd mol. Proto instantiation now uses:
- bd pour <proto> - Instantiate as persistent mol (liquid phase)
- bd wisp create <proto> - Instantiate as ephemeral wisp (vapor phase)
Rationale:
- 'spawn' doesn't fit the chemistry metaphor
- Two phase transitions (pour/wisp) are clearer than one command with flags
- Avoids confusion about defaults
Changes:
- Delete mol_spawn.go
- Update mol.go, mol_catalog.go, mol_distill.go to reference pour/wisp
- Update pour.go and wisp.go to remove 'Equivalent to spawn' comments
- Update info.go changelog entries
- Update CHANGELOG.md, ARCHITECTURE.md, DELETIONS.md
Closes bd-8y9t
Modernize sorting code to use Go 1.21+ slices package:
- Replace sort.Slice with slices.SortFunc across 16 files
- Use cmp.Compare for orderable types (strings, ints)
- Use time.Time.Compare for time comparisons
- Use cmp.Or for multi-field sorting
- Use slices.SortStableFunc where stability matters
Benefits: cleaner 3-way comparison, slightly better performance,
modern idiomatic Go.
Part of GH#692 refactoring epic.

Implements wisp management commands for ephemeral molecules:
- bd wisp list: List wisps with stale detection
- bd wisp gc: Garbage collect orphaned wisps
- bd mol burn: Delete wisp without creating digest
Wisps are ephemeral molecules stored in .beads-wisp/ for patrol cycles
and operational loops that shouldn't accumulate in permanent storage.
