feat: rename harness to HQ throughout docs and code (gt-a41)

The "hq-" prefix for town-level beads revealed that "HQ" (headquarters)
is a better name than "harness" for the top-level Gas Town structure.

- Renamed docs/harness.md to docs/hq.md with updated content
- Updated all documentation references in architecture.md and bootstrap.md
- Updated CLI help text and user-facing messages in install.go
- Updated gitinit.go with HQGitignore constant and HQ terminology
- Updated molecule templates in builtin_molecules.go
- Kept InitGitForHarness function name for backwards compatibility

HQ is more intuitive (where the mayor sits), fits the Mad Max aesthetic,
matches the beads prefix (hq-*), and is self-documenting.
