stale_hooks.go was using hardcoded 'gt-deacon' and 'gt-mayor' instead of
session.DeaconSessionName() and session.MayorSessionName() which return
'hq-deacon' and 'hq-mayor'. This caused incorrect session lookups.
Also fixes duplicate WorktreeAddFromRef method from merge conflict.
- Create mayor.Manager for mayor lifecycle (Start/Stop/IsRunning/Status)
- Create deacon.Manager for deacon lifecycle with respawn loop
- Move session.Manager to polecat.SessionManager (clearer naming)
- Add zombie session detection for mayor/deacon (kills tmux if Claude dead)
- Remove duplicate session startup code from up.go, start.go, mayor.go
- Rename sessMgr -> polecatMgr for consistency
- Make witness/refinery SessionName() public for status display
All agent types now follow the same Manager pattern:
mgr := agent.NewManager(...)
mgr.Start(...)
mgr.Stop()
mgr.IsRunning()
mgr.Status()

Add `gt deacon stale-hooks` command to find and unhook stale beads.
Problem: Beads can get stuck in 'hooked' status when agents die or
abandon work without properly unhooking.
Solution:
- New command scans for hooked beads older than threshold (default 1h)
- Checks if assignee agent is still alive (tmux session exists)
- Unhooks beads with dead agents (sets status back to 'open')
- Supports --dry-run to preview without making changes
Also adds "stale-hook-check" step to Deacon patrol formula.

- Moved pending.go from deacon/ to polecat/ package
- Changed storage location from deacon/pending.json to spawn/pending.json
- Added 'gt spawn pending' subcommand for listing/clearing pending spawns
- Deprecated 'gt deacon pending' (still works, shows deprecation notice)
This decouples pending spawn observation from the Deacon role - anyone
can now observe pending polecats (Mayor, humans, debugging, etc.).

Implements auto-triggering of polecats after spawn:
- New pending.go in deacon package tracks pending spawns
- CheckInboxForSpawns reads POLECAT_STARTED messages
- TriggerPendingSpawns polls WaitForClaudeReady and nudges when ready
- PruneStalePending removes spawns older than 5 minutes
The Deacon can now call `gt deacon trigger-pending` during patrol to
automatically send "Begin." to newly spawned polecats once Claude is ready.

Add deacon package with heartbeat read/write helpers:
- Heartbeat struct with Timestamp, Cycle, LastAction, health counts
- WriteHeartbeat/ReadHeartbeat for persistence to deacon/heartbeat.json
- IsFresh/IsStale/IsVeryStale for age checks
- ShouldPoke to determine if daemon should wake the Deacon
- Touch/TouchWithAction convenience functions
The Deacon writes heartbeat on each wake cycle. The Go daemon reads it
to decide whether to poke the Deacon (only if very stale >5 minutes).
