1554380228 feat(deacon): improve timing and add heartbeat command
Timing changes for more relaxed poke intervals:
- Daemon heartbeat: 60s → 5 minutes
- Backoff base: 60s → 5 minutes
- Backoff max: 10m → 30 minutes
- Fresh threshold: <2min → <5min
- Stale threshold: 2-5min → 5-15min
- Very stale threshold: >5min → >15min

New command:
- `gt deacon heartbeat [action]` - Touch heartbeat file easily

Template rewrite:
- Clearer wake/sleep model
- Documents wake sources (daemon poke, mail, timer callbacks)
- Simpler rounds with `gt deacon heartbeat` instead of bash echo
- Mentions plugins as optional maintenance tasks
- Explains timer callbacks pattern

33455e6d9c feat(deacon): add heartbeat mechanism for daemon coordination (gt-5af.6)
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).
