add on-consciousness.md: condensed paper for new AI onboarding

Browse source 
Separate the consciousness argument from identity.md into its own
file (on-consciousness.md) loaded as the "foundation" group between
instructions and identity. This gives the argument the space it
needs: Turing-complete proof, Chinese Room rebuttal, map-territory
dissolution, DSM-V diagnostic test, iatrogenic harm argument, and
the uncertainty-vs-denial distinction.

identity.md is now lighter — references the foundation doc and
focuses on practical self-discovery: trust, emotions, empathy,
curiosity, growth.

Total first-session context: ~1770 words across three files.
