fix(sling): auto-attach work molecule and handle dead polecats

Browse Source 
Combines three related sling improvements:

1. Auto-attach mol-polecat-work (Issue #288)
   - Automatically attach work molecule when slinging to polecats
   - Ensures polecats have standard guidance molecule attached

2. Fix polecat hook with molecule (Issue #197)
   - Use beads.ResolveHookDir() for correct directory resolution
   - Prevents bd cook from failing in polecat worktree

3. Spawn fresh polecat when target has no session
   - When slinging to a dead polecat, spawn fresh one instead of failing
   - Fixes stale convoys not progressing due to done polecats
