CI / build (push) Successful in 1m17s
CB-511: give workers a toolchain — propagate the daemon PATH, add profile env:
Workers could not run `mvn` or `java`. Every delegated task that asked for a
build came back "mvn is not on PATH", and the worker was right.

Root cause: HerdrPeerLauncher seeded the worker environment with an EMPTY map,
so bridged passed only the vars it explicitly set (OPENCODE_CONFIG, GITEA_TOKEN,
ANTHROPIC_*) and never PATH. herdr merges that map into its own process env, so
a worker inherited whatever PATH the herdr SERVER was started with. On this host
that server (pid 79870, PPID 1) had been up since Jul 4 with a PATH containing
neither the JDK nor Maven. Confirmed on a live worker: its PATH was byte-identical
to herdr's, and the only var bridged had contributed was OPENCODE_CONFIG.

The failure was invisible and non-deterministic: the fleet's capabilities
depended on how a long-lived daemon happened to be launched weeks earlier. There
are three herdr processes on this box with three different PATHs; the one owning
the socket is the one without a toolchain. bridged itself HAD Maven on PATH the
whole time — it just never passed it on.

It also quietly contradicted the project's own principle that "a worker is a
full peer of the primary", and the implementer skill's instruction to build,
commit and open a PR. Every delegation so far has depended on the primary
running the build gate.

Fix: baseEnv(cfg) seeds each worker with the daemon's own PATH, then applies the
profile's new optional env: map. Adapter-specific vars are layered on top and
therefore win — that ordering is load-bearing, not incidental: it stops an env:
entry from overwriting ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL and slipping past SubscriptionGuard,
which is checked against the profile's baseUrl alone. Pinned by a test.

Because the default is now the daemon's PATH, both supervision units set PATH
explicitly — launchd and systemd do not source a login shell, so under CB-504
the daemon (and every worker) would otherwise get a bare /usr/bin:/bin and this
bug would silently return in production.

324 tests (was 321): daemon-PATH propagation, profile env: passthrough including
an explicit PATH override, and the guard-bypass ordering.

Verified live: daemon restarted, worker spawned, and asked to run the tools —
"Apache Maven 3.9.16", "java version 25.0.2". Previously both were absent.
