feat: M6-P0 Foundation — cell spec, lazarus-pit daemon, health endpoint, issue template

Implements all P0 deliverables for the Lazarus Pit epic. - docs/lazarus-pit/mission-cell-spec.md: Canonical `/var/missions/<uuid>/` directory layout, file schemas (cell.json, events.jsonl, heartbeat, daemon state), lifecycle state machine, and isolation guarantees. - bin/lazarus_pit.py: Daemon skeleton with config loading, cell discovery, per-agent heartbeat polling, stale detection, resurrection stub (P3 placeholder), graceful signal handling, PID file management, and CLI subcommands (--status, --list-cells). - config/lazarus-pit.toml: Documented config file with all tunable knobs: cells root, heartbeat thresholds, revive policy, gateway coordinates, Gitea notification settings. - server.py: Added HTTP health heartbeat endpoint on NEXUS_HEALTH_PORT (default 8766). GET /health returns JSON with status, uptime, connected_clients, ws_port, and timestamp. Consumed by lazarus-pit to verify gateway liveness. Runs in a background daemon thread — zero impact on existing WS logic. - .gitea/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/mission-proposal.md: Gitea issue template for proposing new mission cells (agents, scope, isolation requirements, cell config, success criteria). - tests/test_lazarus_pit.py: 25 unit tests covering config, cell discovery, heartbeat reading, health polling, resurrection stub, and CLI. - tests/test_gateway_health.py: 6 unit tests covering health endpoint schema, 404 for unknown paths, uptime, and client count reflection. All 31 new tests pass. Pre-existing test failures unchanged. Fixes #879 Refs #878 Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

+# Mission Cell Directory Specification
+
+**Version:** 1.0
+**Status:** Canonical
+**Epic:** #878 — The Lazarus Pit & Mission Cell Isolation
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+A **Mission Cell** is an ephemeral, isolated working directory provisioned for a specific
+multi-agent collaboration. Each cell is scoped to a single mission (project, task, or
+incident) and is identified by a UUID. No wizard's home directory is ever touched by
+another agent's work within a cell.
+
+---
+
+## Root Path
+
+```
+/var/missions/<uuid>/
+```
+
+`<uuid>` is a version-4 UUID, e.g. `a3f7c901-1234-4b5e-8def-000000000001`.
+
+---
+
+## Directory Layout
+
+```
+/var/missions/<uuid>/
+├── cell.json               # Cell manifest (identity, status, agents, timestamps)
+├── workspace/              # Shared working directory — agents write here
+│   └── ...
+├── logs/

+
+**Status values:** `active` | `frozen` | `archived` | `destroyed`
+
+### `logs/events.jsonl` — Event Stream
+
+One JSON object per line, append-only:
+
+```json
+{"ts": "2026-04-06T00:00:00Z", "event": "cell_created", "by": "allegro", "uuid": "..."}
+{"ts": "2026-04-06T00:01:00Z", "event": "agent_joined", "agent": "claude", "role": "developer"}

+{"ts": "2026-04-06T01:01:00Z", "event": "cell_archived"}
+```
+
+### `.lazarus/heartbeats/<agent-name>.json` — Per-Agent Heartbeat
+
+Written by agents, monitored by the lazarus-pit daemon:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agent": "claude",
+  "pid": 12345,
+  "timestamp": 1744000000.0,

+  "cell_uuid": "a3f7c901-1234-4b5e-8def-000000000001"
+}
+```
+
+### `.lazarus/state.json` — Daemon State
+
+Written exclusively by `lazarus-pit`, never by agents:
+
+```json
+{
+  "cell_uuid": "a3f7c901-1234-4b5e-8def-000000000001",
+  "daemon_pid": 99001,

+  }
+}
+```

+
+## Lifecycle
+
+```
+provision → active → [frozen] → archived → destroyed
+```
+
+| Transition   | Trigger                                    | Actor         |
+|--------------|--------------------------------------------|---------------|
+| provision    | Invitation accepted / mission created      | allegro / CLI |
+| active       | At least one agent joined                  | lazarus-pit   |
+| frozen       | Checkpoint requested or idle timeout       | lazarus-pit   |
+| archived     | Mission complete, cell preserved           | lazarus-pit   |
+| destroyed    | Explicit teardown, no home dirs touched    | CLI / daemon  |
+
+---
+
+## Isolation Guarantees
+
+- No agent process within a cell may write outside `/var/missions/<uuid>/`.
+- Home directories (`/root/wizards/<name>/`) are read-only mounts or simply not present in the cell's working context.
+- The cell UUID is injected as `LAZARUS_CELL_UUID` into each agent's environment.
+- Destruction of a cell has zero impact on any wizard's home directory.
+
