feat(acp): Redis transport layer for Agent Communication Protocol

Replaces tmux send-keys with Redis-backed message passing.

Implements:
- RedisTransport class: send/receive/ack/broadcast via Redis queues + Pub/Sub
- Agent registry stored in Redis Hash with TTL auto-expiry (heartbeat pattern)
- TransportRouter: Redis primary, tmux fallback
- Full CLI: acp send/receive/register/unregister/agents/broadcast/health/queue
- TmuxTransport fallback for backward compatibility

Queue schema:
  acp:inbox:{agent_id}  - LPUSH/BRPOP for FIFO message delivery
  acp:ack:{agent_id}    - SADD for message acknowledgement tracking
  acp:registry          - HSET for agent registry
  acp:broadcast          - Pub/Sub channel + per-agent inbox push
  acp:dlq               - Dead-letter queue + audit trail

Tests: 41 tests covering send/receive/ack/broadcast/registry/queue/FIFO ordering/edge cases.

+ACP Redis Transport Layer
+Agent Communication Protocol transport using Redis queues and Pub/Sub.
+
+Replaces tmux send-keys with Redis-backed message passing.
+Provides reliable, persistent, and scalable inter-agent communication.
+
+Queue schema:
+  acp:inbox:{agent_id}  — agent inbox (list, BRPOP)
+  acp:ack:{agent_id}    — acknowledged message IDs (set, for dedup)
+  acp:registry          — agent registry (hash: agent_id → json)
+  acp:broadcast          — Pub/Sub channel for broadcasts
+  acp:dlq               — dead-letter queue for failed messages
+
+Usage:
+  transport = RedisTransport(redis_url="redis://localhost:6379/0")
+  transport.register_agent("allegro-primary", queue="forge:inbox:allegro-primary")
+  transport.send({"to": "ezra-primary", "from": "allegro-primary", "type": "request", "payload": {"task": "review"}})
+  msg = transport.receive("ezra-primary", timeout=5)
+  transport.ack("ezra-primary", msg["id"])
