feat: add the minimal operational module lifecycle
CI / verify (pull_request) Successful in 35s
CI / infrastructure-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 13s
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request) Successful in 46s

Ekklesia had no notion of a module being on or off: the accepted module set
was exactly "whatever discovery found on disk", and `ModuleLifecycleStage`
named nine states nothing produced or consumed. This replaces that vocabulary
with two axes that real code produces — persistent, administrator-owned
configuration (`enabled`/`disabled`) and per-boot runtime observation
(`running`/`disabled`/`blocked`) — and wires them through startup.

- One Core table (`ekklesia_core_module_state`, migration 0004) holding only
  `module_id` and `enabled`. A module with no record is enabled by default, so
  deploying a module is still sufficient to run it and discovery never needs an
  initialization write. A record for an undeployed module is retained and
  ignored, so redeploying restores the decision.
- `resolveModuleEligibility` is pure: a disabled module transitively blocks
  every module that *requires* it (module and capability edges alike) with a
  structured reason naming the provider; optional dependencies never block; and
  a missing, incompatible, or cyclic dependency stays discovery's concern.
- `startApi` starts only the eligible set and builds the UI publication
  registry from that same list, so routes, artifacts, browser inventory, and
  Dashboard navigation all follow one authoritative set. A disabled module is
  never imported, so there is no per-request enablement check anywhere.
- Startup stays all-or-nothing, deliberately; there is consequently no `failed`
  runtime state. `pnpm modules:enable`/`modules:disable` is the out-of-band
  recovery path for a module that breaks startup.
- Changes take effect at the next start, and the read model reports
  configuration, runtime, and `restartRequired` separately rather than claiming
  a module stopped when it has not.
- Migration participation and permission composition still span the deployed
  and discovered inventories respectively, unchanged.
- New restricted platform permission `core.modules.lifecycle.manage` gates both
  reading and changing enablement, at a sibling prefix (`/api/v1/module-lifecycle`)
  that cannot collide with the module route namespace.
- `pnpm doctor` gains a `modules.lifecycle` check so "why is this module
  unavailable?" is answerable without reading logs.

/**
* The platform's operational lifecycle resource: which installed modules are enabled, what this
* process actually did with each of them, and the narrow, structured API for changing that.
*
* ## Enablement is host configuration, and structurally cannot be anything else
*
* A module neither declares nor reads its own enabled state. Nothing in a manifest, a capability, a
* permission declaration, or a lifecycle hook can influence a value stored here, and a module is
* never told it is enabled — its host simply loads and starts it, or does not. That is what keeps
* the same module implementation reusable under a future standalone host, whose loading decisions
* are its own (ADR 0028).
*
* ## Changing configuration does not change the running process
*
* `PUT` writes a decision. It does not start, stop, load, unload, or reconfigure anything: there is
* no hot module installation or removal in this platform (ADR 0015, unchanged). The response
* therefore reports the new configuration *and* the unchanged runtime observation *and*
* `restartRequired`, rather than pretending the module stopped. Hot-unloading a module to make a
* button feel immediate would trade a real guarantee — that a module's ESM evaluation happens
* exactly once, and can never be rolled back — for a cosmetic one.
*
* ## Only a module this process can see may be configured
*
* `PUT` against an id that is not in the boot inventory is a `404`. Unlike an inert Dashboard
* placement, an enablement record is operational configuration, and accepting one for an arbitrary
* identifier would make this an unbounded write surface for a delegable permission. *Existing*
* records for modules that are no longer deployed are still retained and simply ignored, so
* redeploying a module restores the decision (see `resolveModuleEligibility`).
*
* ## Reading is administrative too
*
* Both verbs require `core.modules.lifecycle.manage` (restricted). This resource is the only place
* a disabled module, a blocked module, and the required-dependency edges between them are visible;
* `core.modules.ui.read` deliberately covers only what is mountable. Mutations additionally require
* an exact trusted `Origin` and a bounded body before authorization work begins, exactly like every
* other Core mutation.
