saymrwulf b8684297fa Add crisis_agents — Crisis as a coordination layer for AI agent teams
A new sibling Python package, `crisis_agents`, that lifts the Crisis
protocol from "consensus between machines" to "consensus between AI
agents". Threat model: a team of sub-agents normally talks freely
with its orchestrator (the "mothership"); when the team's boundary
opens and an external agent of unknown trust joins, the mothership
activates the Crisis layer so byzantine equivocation is detectable.

Two-phase orchestration model:

  Phase 1 — closed team, no Crisis: agents emit claims directly, the
  mothership collects them flat.

  Phase 2 — boundary opens: every subsequent claim is wrapped into a
  Crisis Message with the agent's stable process_id and a PoW nonce,
  delivered into per-agent LamportGraphs, and after each turn the
  mothership scans for mutations via LamportGraph.find_mutations.

  Phase 3 — proof: when an alarm fires, the mothership emits a
  replayable JSON proof-of-malfeasance document with the contradictory
  witnesses, their delivery sets, and DAG cross-references showing
  which honest agents saw what.

Modules:
  - claim.py      Claim dataclass + JSON round-trip
  - boundary.py   membership tracker + open() trigger
  - agent.py      CrisisAgent abstract + MockAgent + MockByzantineAgent
                  (the latter equivocates by emitting two variants to
                  disjoint peer subsets at the same logical turn)
  - mothership.py orchestrator driving both phases, building Crisis
                  Messages from Claims, per-agent LamportGraphs, log
  - alarm.py      scan_for_mutations: same-agent same-turn distinct
                  digests with non-identical delivery sets, verified
                  spacelike via LamportGraph.are_spacelike on the
                  honest-agent graphs
  - proof.py      build_proof + ProofDocument + JSON serializer +
                  verify_proof_self_consistent
  - cli.py        `crisis-agents demo` + `crisis-agents verify`
  - scenarios/    fact_check: reference doc + 6 statements + scripted
                  honest/byzantine agents producing a deterministic
                  equivocation on statement s03

Tests: 50 new tests across test_claim, test_boundary, test_mothership,
test_alarm, test_proof, test_demo_fact_check. End-to-end test runs the
fact_check scenario, asserts exactly one alarm raised, proof is built,
re-serialized JSON passes self-consistency. Full suite (existing
crisis + new crisis_agents) green in 0.77s — 145 tests.

Out of scope (deliberately): visualization (separate CrisisViz upgrade
later), real TCP gossip (agents talk via in-process function calls in
the mothership), false-claim detection without equivocation (an
agent that consistently lies but never equivocates is out-voted, not
"caught"; catching it would require a ground-truth oracle).

Reuse from existing crisis package: Message, Vertex, LamportGraph,
LamportGraph.find_mutations, ProofOfWorkWeight, digest. The new code
is a thin adapter layer; the protocol substrate did the heavy lifting.
