feat(design): compiled binary self-execs as daemon; unified version lookup
Two small but production-critical fixes once the binary actually runs:

1. Compiled binary couldn't spawn the daemon. daemon-client previously
   pointed at design/src/daemon.ts via import.meta.dir — fine in dev,
   fatal in production (the source path doesn't exist on a user's
   machine). Fix: design CLI now self-execs in --daemon-mode when
   invoked with that flag, so the spawn is `process.execPath
   --daemon-mode --marker gstack-design-daemon` for the compiled binary
   and `bun run cli.ts --daemon-mode ...` in dev. Same one binary, two
   modes, no separate daemon entrypoint to ship.

2. Client and daemon disagreed on VERSION in the compiled binary.
   Both used a source-tree-relative path that resolves to "unknown"
   at runtime, which silently shorted the version-mismatch refusal
   path (client expected "unknown" + daemon reported "unknown" → match
   → no refusal even when DESIGN_DAEMON_VERSION was set on one side).
   New readVersionString() consults DESIGN_DAEMON_VERSION env first,
   then design/dist/.version (sidecar baked at build time by build.sh),
   then VERSION at the source-tree root. Both client and daemon now go
   through this one helper.

Manual smoke (compiled binary, all checks green):
  - DAEMON_STARTED + BOARD_PUBLISHED with trailing slash
  - GET /boards/<id> (no slash) → 301 Location /boards/<id>/
  - Second `$D serve` invocation → DAEMON_ATTACHED, new board on same port
  - feedback.json gets boardId + publishedAt fields
  - DESIGN_DAEMON_VERSION=v2-different on second invocation with
    active board → WARNING + "Refusing to auto-kill" + exit 1,
    original daemon still alive
  - `$D daemon stop --force` removes state file

All 67 design tests still green after the refactor (16 serve + 30
daemon + 17 discovery + 4 daemon round-trip).
