docs: put swarm-controller in the repo map and the swarm doc

The crate was a workspace member with no entry in CLAUDE.md, which is the
index that auto-loads into every turn -- a member missing from it is
invisible to everyone who comes after.

Both entries carry the socket-directory constraint rather than just
naming the daemon, because that is the one thing about this service a
reader can get wrong from a position that looks correct.

- **`swarm-controller/`** — swarm-level daemon, opt-in per host
(`services.hyperhive.swarm.controller.enable`). Where `hive-c0re` owns
the agents on **one** host, this owns what is true **across** hives; a
swarm runs one of them, so most hives leave it off. Serves HTTP over a
unix socket (never a TCP port) that the gateway's nginx proxies to.
⚠️ The socket lives in its **own** `RuntimeDirectory`: it is `0666`
(nginx is a different user and `connect(2)` needs write), so the
containing directory — bind-mounted wholesale into the gateway
container — is the only access control there is. Never move it under a
directory shared with anything else, `/run/hyperhive` (host admin
socket) above all. A unit test pins the path.

## Swarm controller
`services.hyperhive.swarm.controller.enable` runs the `swarm-controller`
daemon on this host. It is **off by default and deliberately not derived
from `services.hyperhive.enable`**: a swarm has one controller, so
enabling it is a statement about swarm topology, not about whether
hyperhive is installed. Every hive runs `hive-c0re` (which owns the
agents on that host); one hive additionally runs this (which owns what is
true across hives).
It serves HTTP over a unix socket — `socketPath`, default
`/run/swarm-controller/controller.sock` — rather than a TCP port. The
gateway's nginx is the only intended client and reaches the socket
through a bind-mount, and a listener that is never bound to an address
cannot be reached from off-host by mistake.
⚠️ **The socket's directory is its access control.** The socket itself is
`0666`, because nginx runs as a different user and `connect(2)` needs
write — the same arrangement hive-c0re uses for the per-agent sockets.
What keeps that safe is that the directory holds one socket and is
bind-mounted into exactly one container. Pointing `socketPath` at a
directory that carries anything else — `/run/hyperhive`, which holds the
host **admin** socket, above all — exposes everything in it to every
consumer that mounts it. Changing `socketPath` therefore means
re-checking the gateway bind-mount, not just the daemon.
Today the daemon serves a single `/health` endpoint and holds no state:
the unit exists so the swarm-level surfaces that follow have somewhere to
land.
