Fixes #146

What this PR delivers

Full implementation of the Bezalel Epic-002 deployment suite. A bare VPS running Ubuntu can go from nothing to a running Hermes instance using only DEPLOY.md.

New files

deploy/docker-compose.yml — Production-ready Compose stack with healthcheck, named volume, resource limits (2 GB RAM / 1.5 CPU), and log rotation.
deploy/docker-compose.override.yml.example — Template for local dev overrides without polluting the main compose file.
deploy/hermes-agent.service — systemd unit for headless CLI agent with security hardening (NoNewPrivileges, ProtectSystem, PrivateTmp).
deploy/hermes-gateway.service — systemd unit for the messaging gateway with pre/post hooks that write deploy audit log entries.
scripts/deploy-validate — Executable dry-run validator that checks: .env presence and placeholders, at least one LLM key, HERMES_HOME layout, gateway runtime state (via gateway_state.json), port availability, and git secret hygiene. Exit code 1 on blocking errors.
DEPLOY.md — 15-section deployment runbook covering environment setup, secret injection, start/stop, zero-downtime restart (systemd reload + blue/green), rollback with data backup, Docker Compose updates, systemd install, monitoring, security checklist, and troubleshooting.

Modified files

gateway/platforms/api_server.py — Enhanced /health endpoint to return version, uptime_seconds, gateway_state, and per-platform connection states sourced from gateway_state.json. Added _start_time tracking to __init__.

Success criteria met

Runbook covers bare OS → running Hermes in one document.
/health returns meaningful status (gateway state + per-platform).
Rollback procedure documented and includes data backup/restore steps.
No secrets committed — .gitignore already covers .env; deploy-validate enforces this.
scripts/deploy-validate catches config errors before go-live.

Implements the full Bezalel Epic-002 deployment suite:

- deploy/docker-compose.yml: Docker Compose stack for hermes-agent
  with healthcheck, named volume, resource limits, and log rotation.
- deploy/docker-compose.override.yml.example: Local dev override template.
- deploy/hermes-agent.service: systemd unit for headless CLI/agent.
- deploy/hermes-gateway.service: systemd unit for messaging gateway
  with pre/post hooks for deploy audit logging.
- scripts/deploy-validate: Dry-run pre-flight validator that checks .env
  completeness, LLM key presence, gateway runtime state, port conflicts,
  and secret hygiene. Exit code 1 on blocking errors.
- DEPLOY.md: Full deployment runbook — bare OS to running Hermes in < 30
  min, covering secret injection, health checks, zero-downtime restart
  (systemd reload + blue/green), rollback with data backup, and Docker
  Compose update procedure.
- gateway/platforms/api_server.py: Enhanced /health endpoint to return
  meaningful status: version, uptime_seconds, gateway_state, and per-
  platform connection states sourced from gateway_state.json.
