Fix deacon startup: use ~/gt/deacon dir and export GT_ROLE

Browse Source 
The daemon was creating the deacon session in ~/gt (town root) which loaded
the Mayor CLAUDE.md instead of the Deacon CLAUDE.md. Also, tmux SetEnvironment
does not export variables to spawned processes.

Changes:
- Create deacon session in ~/gt/deacon (correct CLAUDE.md)
- Export GT_ROLE=deacon in launch command (process inherits env)
- Apply to both initial launch and restart paths
