feat(ux): consolidate Launch Swarm + telemetry UX with minimized strip

- Removed broken LaunchSwarmDialog (formula-based) from TopBar/LeftPanel
- All Rocket buttons (TopBar, LeftPanel, DAG nodes, social cards) now open
  AssignmentPanel (archetype-based) which actually works
- Every Rocket clears taskId first so assignMode && !taskId condition passes
- Conversation button priority: taskId always shows conversation, not assign panel
- Added TelemetryStrip: minimized right sidebar with status dots when non-telemetry
  panel (conversation/assignment) is active
- Live feed has minimize button → restores last taskId or assignMode
- DAG nodes: Signal icon → restores telemetry feed
- Social button on DAG nodes: single router.push to avoid race (setView + setTaskId)
- Fixed social card message button: opens right panel with drawer:closed (no popup)
