feat(interactive): fresh-worktree-on-demand + ad-hoc launch specs

BuildForTaskAsync now creates a worktree on demand (via WorktreeManager.CreateAsync,
the same path TaskRunner uses) when a task has a configured working dir but no
Active/Kept worktree, returning a fresh-start spec -- so never-run tasks can be
opened interactively. Adds BuildForDirectoryAsync + GetAdHocLaunchSpec hub/client
for ad-hoc sessions in an arbitrary directory (no task, no worktree, no skill seeding).
