Add support for signaling phase completion when a polecat needs to wait
on a gate before continuing. The --phase-complete flag with --gate ID
allows polecats to hand off control while awaiting external conditions.
Changes:
- done.go: Add --phase-complete and --gate flags, PHASE_COMPLETE exit type
- protocol.go: Add Gate field to PolecatDonePayload
- handlers.go: Handle PHASE_COMPLETE by recycling session (keep worktree)
- beads.go: Add AddGateWaiter method for gate registration
This enables multi-phase molecule workflows with async coordination (bd-gxb4)

Implements automatic nuke of polecats after completion:
- HandlePolecatDone: Auto-nukes immediately for ESCALATED/DEFERRED exits
(no pending MR) when cleanup_status=clean
- HandleMerged: Auto-nukes after verifying commit is on main and
cleanup_status=clean
- HandleLifecycleShutdown: Auto-nukes immediately since shutdown means
no pending work
Safety checks preserved:
- Verifies cleanup_status from agent bead (clean/has_uncommitted/etc)
- Verifies commit is on main before nuking
- Falls back to cleanup wisp if any check fails
New functions:
- NukePolecat(): Executes gt polecat nuke
- AutoNukeIfClean(): Checks safety and nukes if safe

The getCleanupStatus function in witness/handlers.go and crew removal
in cmd/crew_lifecycle.go were constructing agent bead IDs with hardcoded
"gt-" prefix. This failed for rigs that use a different prefix like "bd-".
Now uses beads.GetPrefixForRig to look up the correct prefix from
routes.jsonl, enabling support for the beads rig and any future rigs
with custom prefixes.

Add verifyCommitOnMain() check in HandleMerged to ensure the polecat's
commit is actually on main before allowing cleanup. This prevents work
loss when:
- MERGED signal is for a stale MR
- Merge attempt failed after signal was sent
- MR was already merged via different path
The verification uses git merge-base --is-ancestor to confirm the
polecat's HEAD is reachable from main.

Add safety check to HandleMerged that verifies cleanup_status from the
polecat's agent bead before allowing nuke. This prevents work loss when:
- MERGED signal arrives for a stale MR (already merged via different path)
- Polecat has new unpushed work since the MR was created
- Race condition between merge and nuke
The Witness now blocks nuke and sets an error for escalation when:
- has_uncommitted: polecat has uncommitted changes
- has_stash: polecat has stashed work
- has_unpushed: polecat has unpushed commits (critical)
Clean status or unknown status (backward compat) allows nuke to proceed.

- Add gt polecat check-recovery command to check cleanup_status from agent bead
- Update gt polecat nuke to block on polecats with unpushed work (use --force to override)
- Add EscalateRecoveryNeeded function for RECOVERY_NEEDED escalations
- Update Witness template with dormant polecat recovery protocol
Prevents accidental data loss when cleaning up dormant polecats that have
unpushed commits. The Witness should now use check-recovery before nuking
and escalate NEEDS_RECOVERY cases to the Mayor.

Add protocol message parsing and handlers for polecat→witness communication:
- POLECAT_DONE: Parse completion messages, create cleanup wisps
- HELP: Parse help requests, assess if Witness can help or escalate to Mayor
- MERGED: Parse refinery merge confirmations
- LIFECYCLE:Shutdown: Handle daemon-triggered shutdowns
- SWARM_START: Parse batch work initialization
Files added:
- internal/witness/protocol.go: Message classification and parsing
- internal/witness/handlers.go: Handler implementations with wisp/mail integration
- internal/witness/protocol_test.go: Unit tests for all parsing functions
