matt wilkie 2de4d0facd fix(bd-68e4): make DBJSONLSync bidirectional - export DB when it has more issues

- Modified fix.DBJSONLSync() to detect which direction to sync:
  - If DB > JSONL: run 'bd export' to sync JSONL (DB has newer data)
  - If JSONL > DB: run 'bd sync --import-only' to import (JSONL is source of truth)
  - If equal but different timestamps: use file mtime to decide direction

- Updated CheckDatabaseJSONLSync() error messages to recommend correct fix direction:
  - Shows different guidance based on whether DB or JSONL has more issues

- Added helper functions:
  - countDatabaseIssues() to count issues in SQLite
  - countJSONLIssues() to count issues in JSONL (local, avoids circular import)

- Added tests for countJSONLIssues() with edge cases

Fixes issue where 'bd doctor --fix' would recommend 'bd sync --import-only'
when DB > JSONL, which would be a no-op since JSONL hasn't changed.
