Merge branch 'fix/sse-stale-watchdog'

Heal a stalled SSE stream: the server's :keepalive comment becomes a named
sse:heartbeat event (comments are invisible to EventSource by spec), and the
client gains a staleness watchdog that forces a reconnect after three missed
beats. Also applies a confirmed rename locally instead of waiting on SSE.

**Connection-loss UI** (`computeConnectionLossUi()` in constants.js, writer `_updateConnectionLossUi()` in app.js): the service worker serves the cached app shell, so an unreachable server (phone off the tailnet, VPN down, server stopped) used to render a normal-looking empty dashboard whose only tell was the 8px header dot, which reads as "no sessions", not "no connection". Two surfaces now: a full-screen **overlay** while no server state has loaded this page load (nothing behind it is worth preserving), and a non-blocking **banner** once it has (the terminal scrollback stays readable). ⚠️ A **2.5s grace** is load-bearing: a COM deploy restarts the server and SSE is back in ~200ms, and a banner on every deploy trains the user to ignore it. `navigator.onLine === false` skips the grace, since that is never a blip. Retry re-arms SSE **and** the terminal WS (`planWsReconnect` can 'give-up', and the SSE backoff caps at 30s).
**SSE staleness watchdog** (`computeSseStale()` in constants.js, `_checkSseStale()` + a 5s interval in app.js): an `EventSource` that stops delivering does not always error, so `onerror` never fires, the header dot stays green, and every SSE-driven surface (tab status dots, sessions created on another device, renames) freezes until the user reloads. ⚠️ The 15s server keepalive was an SSE **comment** (`:keepalive`), and comments are **invisible to `EventSource` by spec**, so there was nothing a client could observe: it is now the named `sse:heartbeat` event (`cleanupDeadClients()`, sse-stream-manager.ts), which is exactly why the frame had to change type. ⚠️ Staleness is judged **only while the status is `connected`** and the device is online; that guard is the loop breaker, since a forced `connectSSE()` leaves `connected` immediately and cannot re-fire while a reconnect is in flight. ⚠️ The liveness stamp is applied inside `addListener` itself, so every registered handler (the `_SSE_HANDLER_MAP` wrappers AND the directly-registered ones) feeds it from one place; the heartbeat's own listener is a no-op that exists **only** to be registered, since `EventSource` drops named events nobody listens for. ⚠️ The watchdog interval is cleared at the top of `connectSSE()` and nowhere else (its only teardown path); clearing it elsewhere stacks intervals. Recovery needs no new sync path: the reconnect re-runs `handleInit` → `_resetAllAppState()`. The forced reconnect logs one diagnostic line, because a middlebox that strips heartbeats presents as "silently reconnects every 45s".
**Z-index layers**: subagent windows (1000), plan agents (1100), mobile/tablet fixed header (1200, `mobile.css`), modals on ≤768px (1300 — must beat the fixed header or the modal close button is buried), log viewers (2000), connection-loss overlay (2500, above the fixed header and modals), image popups (3000), local echo overlay (7).
**Respawn presets**: `solo-work` (3s/60min), `subagent-workflow` (45s/240min), `team-lead` (90s/480min), `ralph-todo` (8s/480min), `overnight-autonomous` (10s/480min).

### SSE Event Registry
154 event constants in `src/web/sse-events.ts` (backend) and `SSE_EVENTS` in `constants.js` (frontend). **Both must be kept in sync**, and `test/sse-registry-parity.test.ts` is the guard that pins it (currently exactly in sync, 154 = 154, no drift either direction). The backend file's `@fileoverview` carries the per-category breakdown.
