Ephemeral issues should never be exported to issues.jsonl. They exist only
in SQLite and are shared via .beads/redirect pointers. This prevents
"zombie" issues from resurrecting after mol squash deletes them.
Changes:
- Filter ephemeral issues in autoflush, export, and multirepo_export
- Add --summary flag to bd mol squash for agent-provided summaries
- Fix DeleteIssue to also remove comments (missing cascade)
- Add tests for ephemeral filtering and comment deletion

Implements Tier 2 of the ephemeral molecule cleanup workflow. The squash
command compresses a molecule's ephemeral children into a single digest issue.
Features:
- Collects all ephemeral child issues of a molecule
- Generates a structured digest with execution summary
- Creates a non-ephemeral digest issue linked to the root
- Optionally deletes ephemeral children (default behavior)
- Supports --dry-run and --keep-children flags

Code review found that bondProtoProto was setting Labels on the compound
issue, but CreateIssue doesn't persist labels (they're stored separately.
Fixed by calling AddLabel after creating the compound.
Also added comprehensive tests for:
- isProto() - template label detection
- operandType() - proto vs molecule string
- minPriority() - priority comparison
- bondProtoProto() - compound proto creation with deps and labels
- bondProtoMol() - spawn proto and attach to molecule
- bondMolMol() - join two molecules with sequential/parallel bonds
Tests verify dependency types (blocks vs parent-child) based on bond type.

Agents naturally use spawn-style (variable=value) for both spawn and
distill commands. Now distill accepts both:
- --var branch=feature-auth (spawn-style)
- --var feature-auth=branch (substitution-style)
Smart detection checks which side appears in the epic text:
- Right side found → spawn-style (left is varname)
- Left side found → substitution-style (left is value)
- Both found → prefers spawn-style (more common guess)
Embodies the Beads philosophy: watch what agents do, make their guess correct.
