Adds tests to prevent regression of polecat identity bugs:
1. TestInstallCLAUDETemplate: Verifies template is loaded from
mayor/rig/templates/ (not rig root) with correct variable substitution.
2. TestInstallCLAUDETemplateNotAtRigRoot: Verifies templates at the
old buggy location (rig root) are NOT used.
3. TestPolecatCommandFormat: Documents and verifies that polecat sessions
export GT_ROLE=polecat, GT_RIG, GT_POLECAT, BD_ACTOR inline before
starting Claude (because tmux SetEnvironment only affects new panes).
These tests ensure polecats correctly identify as polecats, not mayor.

Replace polecat state.json with beads assignee field for state management:
- Remove state.json read/write from polecat.Manager
- Add loadFromBeads() to derive state from issue.assignee field
- Update AssignIssue() to set issue.assignee in beads
- Update ClearIssue() to clear assignee from beads
- Update SetState() to work with beads or gracefully degrade
- Add ListByAssignee and GetAssignedIssue to beads package
- Update spawn to create beads issues for free-form tasks
- Update tests for new beads-based architecture
State derivation:
- Polecat exists: worktree directory exists
- Polecat assigned: issue.assignee = 'rig/polecatName'
- Polecat working: issue.status = open/in_progress
- Polecat done: issue.status = closed or no assignee

This implements the ephemeral polecat model where polecats are spawned
fresh for each task and deleted upon completion.
Key changes:
**Spawn (internal/cmd/spawn.go):**
- Always create fresh worktree from main branch
- Run bd init in new worktree to initialize beads
- Remove --create flag (now implicit)
- Replace stale polecats with fresh worktrees
**Handoff (internal/cmd/handoff.go):**
- Add rig/polecat detection from environment and tmux session
- Send shutdown requests to correct witness (rig/witness)
- Include polecat name in lifecycle request body
**Witness (internal/witness/manager.go):**
- Add mail checking in monitoring loop
- Process LIFECYCLE shutdown requests
- Implement full cleanup sequence:
- Kill tmux session
- Remove git worktree
- Delete polecat branch
**Polecat state machine (internal/polecat/types.go):**
- Primary states: working, done, stuck
- Deprecate idle/active (kept for backward compatibility)
- New polecats start in working state
- ClearIssue transitions to done (not idle)
**Polecat commands (internal/cmd/polecat.go):**
- Update list to show "Active Polecats"
- Normalize legacy states for display
- Add deprecation warnings to wake/sleep commands
Closes gt-7ik
