agent/terminal: inline answer form under ask → operator rows (#666)

When an agent calls mcp__hyperhive__ask with to==operator (the
default), the rich tool-use renderer now mounts an empty
ask-answer-inline-slot inside the expanded ask row and enqueues a
loose-ends refresh. A new reconcileAskBinds() walks waiting slots
on every loose-ends update, matches each against pending
operator-bound questions by question text, and injects the same
inline answer form the side panel uses (buildAnswerForm → POST to
the host dashboard answer-question endpoint). When a question
resolves, the form gets replaced by a struck-through [answered ✓]
tag so the scrollback reflects the closed state.

Lets the operator respond to agent questions inline in the live
terminal without context-switching to the loose-ends side panel or
the dashboard Y3R C4LL tab.

Refreshes loose-ends both on tool_use render (best-effort, may
miss the question before the broker persists it) and on the
matching tool_result (the right moment — MCP has just returned the
assigned id). Slots are pruned on /clear and defensively filtered
for isConnected on each reconcile.

## Inline ask-operator answer (#666)
When an agent calls `mcp__hyperhive__ask` with `to == "operator"`
(default), the rich tool-use renderer mounts an empty
`<div class="ask-answer-inline-slot">` inside the row's expanded
body, then enqueues a loose-ends refresh. `reconcileAskBinds()`
runs on every loose-ends refresh, matches each waiting slot
against pending operator-bound questions by question text, and
injects an inline `.answer-form` (textarea + send button bound to
`/answer-question/<id>` on the host dashboard) into the matching
slot. When a question subsequently resolves (operator answered via
the inline form, the side-panel form, or the dashboard Y3R C4LL
tab), the same reconciler replaces the form with a struck-through
`[answered ✓]` tag so the scrollback reflects the closed state.
Lets the operator answer mid-flow without context-switching to the
loose-ends side panel or the dashboard tab. Side panel + dashboard
forms remain — they're the same `buildAnswerForm` factory, three
mount points for the same POST.
