feat(v2.2-pulse): InsightToast + multi-process STORAGE docs

Two independent ship items landing together on the v2.2 branch ahead of
the Tuesday launch — a new UI surface that makes Vestige's cognitive
events visible in real time, and honest documentation of the multi-process
safety story that underpins the Stigmergic Swarm narrative.

**InsightToast** (apps/dashboard/src/lib/components/InsightToast.svelte,
apps/dashboard/src/lib/stores/toast.ts):
  The dashboard already had a working WebSocket event stream on
  ws://localhost:3927/ws that broadcast every cognitive event (dream
  completions, consolidation sweeps, memory promotions/demotions, active-
  forgetting suppression and Rac1 cascades, bridge discoveries). None of
  that was surfaced to a user looking at anything other than the raw feed
  view. InsightToast subscribes to the existing eventFeed derived store,
  filters the spammy lifecycle events (Heartbeat, SearchPerformed,
  RetentionDecayed, ActivationSpread, ImportanceScored, MemoryCreated),
  and translates the narrative events into ephemeral toasts with a
  bioluminescent colored accent matching EVENT_TYPE_COLORS.

  Design notes:
  - Rate-limited ConnectionDiscovered at 1.5s intervals (dreams emit many).
  - Max 4 visible toasts, auto-dismiss at 4.5-7s depending on event weight.
  - Click or Enter/Space to dismiss early.
  - Bottom-right on desktop, top-banner on mobile.
  - Reduced-motion honored via prefers-reduced-motion.
  - Zero new websocket subscriptions — everything piggybacks on the
    existing derived store.

  Also added a "Preview Pulse" button to Settings -> Cognitive Operations
  that fires a synthetic sequence of four toasts (DreamCompleted,
  ConnectionDiscovered, MemorySuppressed, ConsolidationCompleted) so
  the animation is demoable without waiting for real cognitive activity.

**Multi-Process Safety section in docs/STORAGE.md**:
  Grounds the Stigmergic Swarm story with concrete tables of what the
  current WAL + 5s busy_timeout configuration actually supports vs what
  remains experimental. Key honest points:
  - Shared --data-dir + ONE vestige-mcp + N clients is the shipping
    pattern for multi-agent coordination.
  - Two vestige-mcp processes writing the same file is experimental —
    documented with the lsof + pkill recovery path.
  - Roadmap lists the three items that would promote it to "supported":
    advisory file lock, retry-with-jitter on SQLITE_BUSY, and a
    concurrent-writer load test.

Build + typecheck:
- npm run check: 0 errors, 0 warnings across 583 files
- npm run build: clean static build, adapter-static succeeds

InsightToast — v2.2 Pulse
Renders the toast queue as a floating overlay. Desktop: bottom-right
stack. Mobile: top-center stack. Each toast has a colored left border
matching its event type, a progress bar showing dwell, and click-to-
dismiss. This is the "brain coming alive" surface — when Vestige dreams,
consolidates, forgets, or discovers a new bridge, you see it happen.

// Pulse Toast — v2.2
// Subscribes to the WebSocket event feed and surfaces meaningful cognitive
// events as ephemeral toast notifications. This is the "brain coming alive"
// moment — when the dashboard is open you SEE Vestige thinking.
//
// Design:
// - Filter the spammy events (Heartbeat, SearchPerformed, RetentionDecayed,
// ActivationSpread, ImportanceScored, MemoryCreated). Those fire during
// every ingest cycle and would flood the UI.
// - Surface the narrative events: Dreams completing, Consolidation sweeping,
// Memories being promoted/demoted/suppressed, Rac1 cascades, new bridges.
// - Rate-limit ConnectionDiscovered — dreams fire many of these in seconds.
// - Auto-dismiss after 5-6s. Max 4 on screen.
