drew a103a31bbf feat(controller): worker-owned gated push for the implementer
The implementer agent no longer pushes to git — the controller worker
now owns the push: it gates the agent's commits on lint+typecheck and
pushes via a single leased primitive. Closes two production defects:

- Clobber: the pre-fix MCP --force-with-lease leased against a
  freshly-fetched tip, so the lease always passed — an in-flight
  implementer destroyed a commit pushed to the PR branch during its
  run (lost a hand-pushed skip_coverage fix on PR #46).
- Gate-skip: the agent verified only the CI-flagged gate, so a fix for
  one gate shipped fresh violations in another (lint flapped
  pass->fail across CI runs 198->199).

Step 1 — worker_push primitive:
- New git_push.py: one leased push, pinned to the SHA the worker
  started from; classifies pushed / stale_input / diverged /
  infra_error; bounded infra-retry.
- mcp_git_server.push gains expected_sha for a correctly-pinned lease.
- finalize_conflict_resolution migrated onto worker_push.

Step 2 — deterministic gate:
- New gate.py: per-slot nox env-dirs (no venv races), manifest-hash
  staleness keying, lazy warm-up.
- local_ci_gate.sh gains --envdir.

Step 3 — worker-owned gated push:
- New implementer_finalize.py: divergence pre-check -> lint+typecheck
  gate -> ruff auto-fix -> leased push. finalize's outcome is
  authoritative over the agent's emitted outcome.
- agent_runner integrates finalize; salvage no longer pushes.
- outcomes/tick: gate-failed + push-time stale-input caps,
  epoch-scoped; WorkerError carries an output_payload so the gate
  report reaches the next attempt's prompt; prefetch surfaces
  gate-failed attempts.
- The 5 task-implementor prompts drop the agent push step.

Reviewed across 4 adversarial rounds; full controller+MCP suite green
(1379 passed).

"""Per-attempt runner: dequeue → run → write output → release lock.
Plan v9 worker mainline:
1. The dequeue (in loop.py) gives us an attempt_id + role + input_payload
2. Start a heartbeat thread keeping the lock alive
3. Invoke the agent (Phase 1c-2: dispatch via OpenCode using the role's
builder MCP; this skeleton emits a stand-in for the test harness)
4. On success: write status='complete' + output_payload; release lock
5. On lost lock (heartbeat detected reap): abort silently — reaper has
already re-pended; another worker will retry
6. On worker-internal error: write status='failed' + outcome classification
This module's ``run_one_attempt`` is the pure function the test
harness exercises. The loop module wraps it with the dequeue +
ThreadPoolExecutor + retry semantics.
For Phase 1c skeleton: the actual OpenCode invocation is parameterised
as ``agent_runner``. Tests inject a FakeAgentRunner; the production
adapter (Phase 1c-2) will spawn the MCP subprocess + the OpenCode
session.
