Steve Yegge 2112804aba Implement Boot: daemon entry point dog for Deacon triage (gt-rwd5j)
Boot is a watchdog that the daemon pokes instead of Deacon directly,
centralizing the 'when to wake Deacon' decision in an agent that can
reason about context.

Key changes:
- Add internal/boot package with marker file and status tracking
- Add gt boot commands: status, spawn, triage
- Add mol-boot-triage formula for Boot's triage cycle
- Modify daemon to call ensureBootRunning instead of ensureDeaconRunning
- Add tmux.IsAvailable() for degraded mode detection
- Add boot.md.tmpl role template

Boot lifecycle:
1. Daemon tick spawns Boot (fresh each time)
2. Boot runs triage: observe, decide, act
3. Boot cleans stale handoffs from Deacon inbox
4. Boot exits (or handoffs in non-degraded mode)

In degraded mode (no tmux), Boot runs mechanical triage directly.
