* feat(daemon): add --local flag for git-free operation

Add --local mode to the daemon that allows it to run without a git
repository. This decouples the daemon's core functionality (auto-flush
to JSONL, auto-import from JSONL) from git synchronization.

Changes:
- Add --local flag to daemon command
- Skip git repo check when --local is set
- Add validation that --auto-commit and --auto-push cannot be used with --local
- Create local-only sync functions that skip git operations:
  - createLocalSyncFunc: export-only for polling mode
  - createLocalExportFunc: export without git commit/push
  - createLocalAutoImportFunc: import without git pull
- Update startup message to indicate LOCAL mode
- Update event loop to use local functions when in local mode

This enables use cases like:
- Single-machine issue tracking without git
- Auto-flush to JSONL for backup purposes
- Running daemon in environments without git access

Multi-machine sync still requires git (as expected).

* fix(daemon): skip fingerprint validation in local mode

validateDatabaseFingerprint() calls beads.ComputeRepoID() which
executes git commands. This fails in non-git directories even
with --local flag.

Skip fingerprint validation entirely when running in local mode
since there's no git repository to validate against.

* test(daemon): add comprehensive test coverage for --local mode

Add tests for:
- Flag validation (--local incompatible with --auto-commit/--auto-push)
- Git check skip logic in local mode
- createLocalSyncFunc, createLocalExportFunc, createLocalAutoImportFunc
- Fingerprint validation skip in local mode
- Full integration test in non-git directory
- Export/import round-trip test
