Onboarding: first-run setup, in-app td/tasks install, empty-state next steps - #301

…tasks, and fix stallion art alignment
Adopting an existing pane tree into the content deck, or rebinding on a context change, armed visible documents without starting their loads. The new leaf loaded; siblings sat on the placeholder until a later select or restart. LoadVisible now starts those loads, r reloads a focused document, and the loading placeholder is indented with a spacer line.
The Shell/Worktree toggle only used the strong highlight while it had keyboard focus, so opening the form on the name field left both options looking unselected.
… (td-2140b4) Pressing s or clicking Start Agent on an unattached worktree now opens the shared Create Workspace form with Shell selected, and submitting starts an agent on that worktree. The empty preview keeps Output chrome, adds padding, and registers a clickable Start Agent control.
…9916) An unblocked empty Workspaces list (project and tmux present, no rows) explains how to create a worktree or shell and how to launch an agent, with a clickable create control. The blocked Setup prompt is unchanged.
…a0687, td-2d4ef5) Launching in a non-Git directory with an empty projects list opens Configuration on Add Project after an async probe, instead of an empty td-monitor. Git init now uses `git init -b main`, with a padded mouse button and the existing Init footer command, and plugins refresh from ReadyMsg without a restart.
Let new users install missing td/tasks from Sidecar after confirming the exact command, instead of hunting for brew. Homebrew is preferred; go install @latest is the fallback. Success re-probes PATH and continues into td setup or the Tasks config flow.
…d-219916) Hide-idle only filters idle rows that exist. A truly empty catalog now gets the welcoming create copy and pill even at the default hide-idle setting, instead of "no sessions".
Initialize this directory now binds i, Tab from Location lands on it instead of Search, and git-no-repo no longer paints duplicate key hints. gitstatus reloads from gitinit.ReadyMsg so init success does not wait for a later focus.
Configuration's enable route now ticks its BrailleSpinner while an install runs. After go install, success is detected when the binary lands in GOBIN (or GOPATH/bin) even if that directory is not on PATH, and that dir is prepended to this process PATH so later LookPath and setup see it. Displayed go commands include GOWORK=off.
Commands() already advertised init-repo; the unified footer only emits commands that have a binding in the active context.
First-run copy is for a collected empty catalog. An unloaded list still says no sessions so it does not claim workspaces are missing while the collector is in flight.
Diagnostics, Getting Started, privacy, and the changelog no longer say Sidecar will not install Tasks. First-install still waits for the exact command to be confirmed and never uses sudo.

New Sidecar users should land on the next thing they can do, not an empty td monitor.
