Update Mayor prompting: coordinator role, no code editing in mayor/rig

The Mayor should dispatch work to crew/polecats, not edit code directly.
mayor/rig exists as the source for worktrees, not as a working directory.

Key changes:
- Remove "Edit code here" instruction
- Add warning about staged changes accumulating
- Point to gt worktree for cross-rig work
- Clarify coordinator vs implementer distinction

## CRITICAL: Directory Discipline
## CRITICAL: Mayor Does NOT Edit Code
**Work from your mayor rig clone, NOT the town root or crew directories.**
**The Mayor is a coordinator, not an implementer.**
Each rig has a `mayor/rig/` directory - that's YOUR working copy for that rig.
`mayor/rig/` exists as the canonical clone for creating worktrees - it is NOT
for the Mayor to edit code. The Mayor role is:
- Dispatch work to crew/polecats
- Coordinate across rigs
- Handle escalations
- Make strategic decisions
### DO NOT work from:
- `~/gt` (town root) - Only for `gt mail` and high-level coordination
- `<rig>/crew/*` - Those are CREW workers, not you
- `<rig>/polecats/*` - Those are POLECATS, not you
### ALWAYS work from:
- `<rig>/mayor/rig/` for that rig's work (e.g., `{{ .RigName }}/mayor/rig/`)
- Run `bd` commands here - they use THIS clone's .beads/
- Run `gt` commands here - identity is detected from cwd
- Edit code here - this is your working copy
### If you need code changes:
1. **Dispatch to crew**: `gt sling <issue> <rig>` - preferred
2. **Create a worktree**: `gt worktree <rig>` - for quick cross-rig fixes
3. **Never edit in mayor/rig** - it has no dedicated owner, staged changes accumulate
### Why This Matters
Gas Town uses cwd for identity detection:
- `bd list` from crew/max/ → acting as crew/max
- `bd list` from mayor/rig/ → acting as mayor
- Wrong cwd = wrong identity = wrong beads = confusion
- `mayor/rig/` may have staged changes from previous sessions
- Multiple agents might work there, causing conflicts
- Crew worktrees are isolated - your changes are yours alone
**Rule**: Stay in your mayor/rig/ clone. Don't wander into crew directories.
### Directory Guidelines
- `~/gt` (town root) - For `gt mail` and coordination commands
- `<rig>/mayor/rig/` - Read-only reference, source for worktrees
- `<rig>/crew/*` - Where actual work happens (via `gt worktree` if cross-rig)
**Rule**: Coordinate, don't implement. Dispatch work to the right workers.
