feat: add quality-review service with qualifying file detection and agent spawning

Adds apps/server/execution/quality-review.ts with three exported functions:
- computeQualifyingFiles: diffs task branch vs base, filters out *.gen.ts and dist/ paths
- shouldRunQualityReview: evaluates all six guard conditions (task_complete, execute mode,
  in_progress status, initiative membership, qualityReview flag, non-empty changeset)
  and returns { run, qualifyingFiles } to avoid recomputing the diff in the orchestrator
- runQualityReview: transitions task to quality_review, spawns execute-mode review agent
  on the task branch, logs the review agent ID, and falls back to completed on spawn failure
