feat(dispatch): auto-spawn watchdog after every dispatch (FPLAN-0189 Task A) (#350)

* feat(devpulse): watchdog: breadcrumb on exit + default timeout 1800s to 600s (FPLAN-0189)

Co-Authored-By: @devpulse <devpulse@aipass>

* feat(dispatch): auto-spawn watchdog after every dispatch (FPLAN-0189 Task A)

_orchestrate_dispatch_send now spawns `drone @devpulse watchdog agent <target>`
as a detached background process (start_new_session=True) after a successful
wake. cwd=devpulse_path bypasses _guard_caller's cross-branch rejection.
--no-watchdog flag opts out. 6 new tests cover registry lookup, path
resolution, and error paths.
