Build the semantic commit-message engine

CommitMessageEngine replaces the interim composer as the wired
default: a pure total function from two snapshots + changed paths to
a message. Full vocabulary — Add / Delete / Move / Rename / Edit /
Restyle / Resize / Reorder over cards, lanes, board; Attach / Remove;
Repair for the duplicate remint (detected as a heal-classed
rename-paired arrival whose id the previous snapshot never held —
the loader withholds duplicates, so the shape is a bare arrival);
the trash triple by diff shape alone (into .trash = Delete, out =
Restore, leaving the tree = Permanently delete); Relabel / Assign /
Set due date plus the named generic for custom keys. Plural folding
with shared destinations, implied events as body bullets never
subjects, ~40-char subject truncation, "(untitled)". Bookkeeping
(sequence-preserving renumbers, stamps, backfilled kind) composes
nothing. Non-snapshot paths compose path-shaped events — CLAUDE.md
reads "Update agent guide (vN)" via the marker line (the m10 card's
deferred bullet lands here), everything else "Update '<path>'".

The comment verb family per 01's ruling (comments shipped, so 06
gains the verbs): Comment on / Edit comment on / Delete comment on /
Draft comment on / Permanently delete comment on '<card>', grouped
one event per comment folder, classified ahead of the model-silence
rules, card title resolved from either snapshot. GIT_DELTA_ADDED is
surfaced as GitChangedPath.isArrival — post vs edit is unanswerable
from snapshots that exclude comments by ruling. A card moving with
its thread swallows the comment events (implied-events one level
down).

The previous snapshot is HEAD's tree, materialized per flush into a
temp dir (index.md blobs in full, other blobs zero-byte — the model
reads attachment names, never bytes) and re-parsed through the one
BoardLoader; never a value carried forward. changedPaths is a hard
filter per split commit, which also earns the stage-around and kills
phantom events. Launch catch-up and foreign windows compose through
the same engine.

48 new tests (35 pure + comment family + engine-level); 2293 tests /
394 suites green; InertGitTests untouched.
