Phase 2 of Dolt integration - enables runtime backend selection:
- Add --backend flag to bd init (sqlite|dolt)
- Create storage factory for backend instantiation
- Update daemon and main.go to use factory with config detection
- Update database discovery to find Dolt backends via metadata.json
- Fix Dolt schema init to split statements for MySQL compatibility
- Add ReadOnly mode to skip schema init for read-only commands
Usage: bd init --backend dolt --prefix myproject

Reduces the default retention period for deletion manifest entries.
Shorter TTL limits blast radius of stale deletions that can poison
beads installations when agents get out of sync.

Root cause: metadata.json is tracked in git and contains last_bd_version.
When git operations (pull, checkout, merge) reset metadata.json to the
committed version, the upgrade notification would fire repeatedly.
Fix: Store the last used bd version in .beads/.local_version which is
gitignored, so git operations don't affect version tracking.

Implements two P1 tasks for the deletions manifest epic:
bd-v2x: Add deletions pruning to bd compact
- PruneDeletions function removes records older than retention period
- Default retention: 7 days (configurable via metadata.json)
- CLI --retention flag for override
- Atomic file rewrite prevents corruption
- Called automatically during all compact operations
bd-pnm: Add git history fallback for pruned deletions
- Catches deletions where manifest entry was pruned
- Uses git log -S to search for ID in JSONL history
- Batches multiple IDs for efficiency (git -G regex)
- Self-healing: backfills manifest on hit
- Conservative: keeps issue if git check fails (shallow clone)
Tests added for both features with edge cases covered.

## Summary
When metadata.json gets deleted (git clean, merge conflict, rebase), the
version tracking code auto-recreates it using DefaultConfig() which hardcoded
jsonl_export to 'issues.jsonl'. But many repos (including beads itself) use
'beads.jsonl', causing a mismatch between config and actual JSONL file.
## Changes
1. **bd doctor --fix auto-detection** (cmd/bd/doctor/fix/database_config.go)
- New DatabaseConfig() fix function that auto-detects actual JSONL file
- Prefers beads.jsonl over issues.jsonl (canonical name)
- Skips backup files and merge artifacts
- Wired into doctor.go applyFixes()
2. **Version tracking auto-detection** (cmd/bd/version_tracking.go)
- trackBdVersion() now scans for existing JSONL files before defaulting
- Prevents mismatches when metadata.json gets recreated
- Added findActualJSONLFile() helper function
3. **Canonical default name** (internal/configfile/configfile.go)
- DefaultConfig() changed from issues.jsonl to beads.jsonl
- Aligns with canonical naming convention
4. **FindJSONLPath preference** (internal/beads/beads.go)
- Now prefers beads.jsonl over issues.jsonl when scanning
- Default changed from issues.jsonl to beads.jsonl
5. **Test coverage**
- Added comprehensive tests for DatabaseConfig fix
- Updated configfile tests for new default
- Verified backup file skipping logic
## Testing
- All existing tests pass
- New tests verify auto-fix behavior
- Integration tested with simulated mismatches
Closes: bd-afd
Implement automatic bd version tracking and upgrade awareness:
- Add LastBdVersion field to Config struct in metadata.json
- Auto-update version on every bd command in PersistentPreRun
- Add 'bd upgrade' command with status/review/ack subcommands
- Show upgrade notifications on 'bd ready' and 'bd list'
- Non-intrusive: only shows once per session, skipped for JSON output
The system tracks version changes automatically and helps users stay
aware of bd upgrades without manual intervention. Notifications are
graceful - failures don't break commands.
Example output on bd ready after upgrade:
🔄 bd upgraded from v0.22.0 to v0.24.2 since last use

The canonical beads database name is issues.jsonl. Tens of thousands of users
have issues.jsonl, and beads.jsonl was only used by the Beads project itself
due to git history pollution.
Changes:
- Updated bd doctor to warn about beads.jsonl instead of issues.jsonl
- Changed default config from beads.jsonl to issues.jsonl
- Reversed precedence in checkGitForIssues to prefer issues.jsonl
- Updated git merge driver config to use issues.jsonl
- Updated all tests to expect issues.jsonl as the default
issues.jsonl is now the canonical default; beads.jsonl is legacy

- Create internal/configfile package for config.json handling
- bd init now creates .beads/config.json with database, version, and jsonl_export fields
- Database discovery checks config.json first, falls back to beads.db
- Update .gitignore to not ignore config.json (part of repo state)
- Update test to expect beads.db and config.json
- Backward compatible with existing beads.db-only setups
