daemon: fix startMode 'later' -32603 and isolate the single-instance lock by runtime dir

Two bugs blocking PROTO's live-veloxd conformance check.

1. tasks.start_mode's CHECK was ('auto','now','queue','manual') — not the
   contract's StartMode enum (['now','later','queue']) at all. 'later', a real
   documented value (the File Info dialog's Download Later button), hit the CHECK
   on every insert and surfaced as an unhandled -32603; 'auto'/'manual' were
   never contract values to begin with.

   Migration 0003 rebuilds tasks (SQLite can't ALTER a CHECK) with the contract's
   values, remapping existing rows by what they actually meant: 'auto' -> 'now'
   (eligible for the scheduler immediately), 'manual' -> 'later' (parked, matching
   StartMode's own "lands the task in paused" description). store_migrations_test
   covers the remap and that 'later' inserts clean while the retired spellings
   are rejected.

   dispatcher.cpp's on_download_add matched: default (absent startMode) is now
   'now' instead of the invented 'auto'; 'later' actually lands the task in
   `paused` (pause_reason 'user') instead of a dead 'manual' -> `new` branch that
   spec.startMode (typed as the 3-value enum) could never even reach.
   TaskRow::start_mode's in-memory default followed suit ('now').

2. main.cpp's single-instance guard bound an abstract socket named
   "velox-daemon-<euid>" — one name per user, system-wide. XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
   isolation never reached it: a leaked test veloxd held the lock for 4h40m and
   locked out every other isolated instance with the same euid (PROTO, EXT, the
   orchestrator), real daemon included.

   Extracted rpc/single_instance.{hpp,cpp} (was a static in main.cpp, untestable)
   and derived the abstract-socket name from a hash of the resolved runtime dir
   path instead of euid alone. The real per-user daemon is still unique (its
   runtime dir is unique to it); isolated instances pointed at their own runtime
   dirs now coexist. main() resolves the runtime dir before acquiring the lock
   (was the other way around). New single_instance_test covers same-dir refusal,
   different-dir coexistence, and release-on-close.

Verified against real veloxd binaries, not just unit tests: startMode: "later"
via a live download.add lands in `paused`; two veloxd with different runtime
dirs run concurrently, two with the same one and the second refuses with the
runtime dir named in the error. Full ctest: 39/39.

-- contract values; they were this table's own invention and nothing on the wire ever
-- sends them.
--
-- SQLite cannot ALTER a CHECK constraint in place, so this rebuilds the table (same
-- pattern as 0002: create the new shape, copy with the value mapped, drop, rename).
-- Existing rows are remapped by what they actually meant: 'auto' was "eligible for the
-- scheduler the moment it's added", i.e. 'now'; 'manual' was "parked, wait for the user",
-- which is what 'later' means on the wire (StartMode's own description: "lands the task
-- in paused"). Any row already spelled 'now' or 'queue' passes through unchanged.
--
-- This does NOT touch `state` or `pause_reason` — a row that was start_mode='manual' and
-- (per the dispatcher's now-dead branch) state='new' keeps state='new'; the daemon-side
-- fix to actually land a 'later' task in 'paused' going forward lives in dispatcher.cpp,
-- not in this migration. Historical rows are not replayed through the scheduler.
