feat(builder): research, build and a worker for the AI builder
Validate game templates / validate (push) Successful in 19s
Validate game templates / boot-test (push) Skipped
Validate game templates / publish (push) Skipped

- research: searches SearXNG, reads the best pages through the reader, has the
  model list the server's variants, then checks every Docker image and Steam
  app it named for real before an admin sees it.
- build: first boot of the variant's images (skipping ones that need root),
  a draft by the model, then the draft deployed with the node-agent's
  BootTest like CI does; crashes, error lines and saves outside /server go
  back to the model, three boots at most.
- worker: polls the panel's builder queue (outbound only), runs research or
  build in a fresh clone, streams the output as the job log, and opens the
  result as a pull request from the bot account.
- Dockerfile.builder, a workflow publishing gbr-builder:latest, and
  BUILDER.md. Everything about where it runs comes from environment
  variables; deployment files live outside this public repo.

draft now keeps its conversation in a drafter, so build can send boot
failures back to the same model session. The boot-test runner comment no
longer names its VM.
