gastown/crew/jack ad8189b010 feat(deacon): use await-signal with exponential backoff in patrol loop ...

The Deacon patrol formula now uses `gt mol step await-signal` with
exponential backoff instead of vague "sleep 60s" instructions.

How it works:
- Subscribes to `bd activity --follow` (beads activity feed)
- Returns IMMEDIATELY when any gt/bd command triggers activity
- On timeout, waits exponentially longer: 60s → 120s → 240s → max 10m
- Tracks idle:N label on hq-deacon bead across invocations

This connects the designed-but-unintegrated backoff mechanism to the
actual patrol loop. Idle towns let Deacon sleep; active work wakes it.
