feat(desktop): trace signal detection + tri-view badges

Adds a small signal-detection layer over trace payloads and surfaces
three kinds of semantic signals inline in the trace tri-view (Timeline
/ Graph / turn footer chips) so a researcher can spot repetitive
tool-call loops, redundant identical calls, and plan-completion beats
without hand-scanning the raw log:

- loop-detected  — three or more repeats of the same tool.method
                   signature inside a window, badge in Timeline gutter
                   + colored ring on the Graph node
- redundant-call — identical (tool, arg-hash) call twice without any
                   state change in between, badge + subdued styling
                   so it stays advisory not alarmist
- plan-* chips   — plan/subplan step-complete beats surfaced above the
                   assistant body in the turn footer, wired through
                   the finishTurnContainer tail

Pure rendering; no wire-format changes needed on the runtime side —
signal detection is fixture-driven off the same payload the tri-view
already consumes. Companion RFC L-2 in docs/upstream-ledger.md asks
the runtime to emit these signals natively rather than deriving them
in the shell, so once L-2 lands the shell will consume upstream signals
and this detector becomes a fallback.

Files:
  src/renderer/trace-signal-detect.js       new  (loop/redundant/plan)
  src/renderer/trace-tri-view.js            +24  (wire detector output)
  src/renderer/trace-timeline.js            +39  (badge in gutter)

Test suite: 1668/1668 pass (17 new). Fixture-driven signals-01-timeline-

// The Electron shoot (qa-trace-signals-shoot.mjs) can't run in the CI env
// (electron isn't installed there — that's the same story as the
// pre-existing artifact-server.test.js failure). This script drives the
// same rendering code paths through node's require system, then writes
// three standalone HTML files that show the exact SVG output the Timeline
// and Graph produce. Open them in a browser to see the badges/rings/chips
// exactly as the real app would render them.
