feat: grow new accounts by commenting on active threads

A new Reddit account cannot start chats until Reddit considers it
established, and nothing in the app previously did anything about that.
Account growth posts a small number of AI-written comments per day on
active threads in an operator-chosen list of communities, per account,
so the history that lifts the hold actually accumulates.

Growth is account-scoped rather than part of the shared outreach funnel:
karma, comment history and pacing all belong to one identity. It runs as
the lowest-priority work in the account runtime, after inbound replies,
and deliberately keeps running while an account is held out of outbound
messaging.

Comments publish without operator review, so the guards are the feature:

- Both screening stages fail closed. A deterministic gate rejects links,
  contact solicitation, user tags, filler and any text that reveals the
  generator; the classifier must actively approve with confidence, and
  an outage stalls growth rather than publishing unreviewed text.
- Thread text reaches the model only as fenced untrusted data, since
  Reddit posts do contain instructions aimed at automated readers.
- The daily allowance is adaptive, not configured: it starts at two per
  day and rises only while comments survive and earn upvotes.
- Posted comments are swept at ~15m/2h/24h with one batched info.json
  request, plus a single signed-out probe that detects a comment the
  public cannot see. Two consecutive removals, an invisible comment, or
  a captcha challenge pauses the account until an operator clears it. A
  failed probe never pauses anything.
- One comment per thread across every owned account, enforced by a
  unique index, because two of our accounts on one post is the easiest
  pattern to correlate.
- A comment interrupted mid-post is abandoned, never retried: we cannot
  know whether the write landed and a duplicate cannot be withdrawn.
- Reddit's refusals are authoritative — a ban disables that community
  for that account, a throttle backs off at the scope Reddit named, and
  a signed-out response invalidates the session.

Comments are submitted through the account's own browser session against
the old.reddit form endpoint, which returns machine-readable error codes
and needs no credentials beyond the cookies already imported.

API-first: /api/growth exposes state, settings, the community list and
pause/resume, all verified against a local instance. Route responses are
parsed with the shared contracts in tests so the server-side mirror
cannot drift from what the dashboard expects.
