When gt doctor --fix detects stale Claude settings at town root, it was
automatically killing ALL Gas Town sessions (gt-* and hq-*). This is too
disruptive because:
1. Deacon runs gt doctor automatically, creating a restart loop
2. Active crew/polecat work could be lost mid-task
3. Settings are only read at startup, so running agents already have
the config loaded in memory
Instead, warn the user and tell them to restart agents manually:
"Town-root settings were moved. Restart agents to pick up new config:
gt up --restart"
Addresses PR #239 feedback.

Previously `gt doctor --fix` would automatically kill and restart patrol
sessions when fixing stale settings.json files. This was disruptive as it
interrupted work without explicit consent.
Now session cycling only happens when `--restart-sessions` is explicitly
passed along with `--fix`. Without the flag, settings files are updated
but running sessions are left alone.

gt doctor --fix was killing all sessions with stale settings, including
crew and polecats that cannot auto-recover. Now only kills patrol roles
(witness, refinery, deacon, mayor) which the daemon will restart.

Refactors all agent startup paths (witness, refinery, crew, polecat) to use
a consistent Manager interface with Start(), Stop(), IsRunning(), and
SessionName() methods.
Includes:
- Witness manager with GUPP propulsion nudge for startup
- Refinery manager for engineer sessions
- Crew manager for worker agents
- Session/polecat manager updates
- claude_settings_check doctor check for settings validation
- Settings management consolidated from rig/manager.go
- Settings location moved outside source repos to prevent conflicts

- Handle empty repos in ConfigureSparseCheckout (skip read-tree when no HEAD)
- Fix errcheck: wrap fileLock.Unlock() error in defer
- Fix unparam: remove unused *rig.Rig return from getWitnessManager
- Fix unparam: mark unused agentType parameter with blank identifier

Settings creation was scattered across multiple places (createPatrolHooks,
ensurePatrolHooks, inline code). Now unified via claude.EnsureSettingsForRole().
Changes:
- Add "deacon" to autonomous roles in claude/settings.go
- Remove ensurePatrolHooks() from cmd/deacon.go, use EnsureSettingsForRole
- Remove createPatrolHooks() from rig/manager.go (no longer needed at rig add)
- Add EnsureSettingsForRole call in crew_lifecycle.go
- Add doctor check for stale/missing Claude settings files
- Wire up claude-settings check in cmd/doctor.go
