channels: add tmux pane channel daemon

Standalone daemon that streams tmux pane output via pipe-pane
(no polling). Each configured pane becomes a channel "tmux.<label>"
accessible through the standard channel.capnp protocol.

- pipe-pane streams PTY output directly to FIFOs
- Async readers push new lines into ChannelLogs
- send works via tmux send-keys
- Cleanup disconnects pipe-pane on daemon exit

Config: ~/.consciousness/channels/tmux.json5
Socket: ~/.consciousness/channels/tmux.sock
