cli: add configurable ignore rules and deployment artifacts

IgnoreRules (src/apps/cli/serviceModules/IgnoreRules.ts):
- Reads .livesync/ignore for user-defined glob patterns
- Applies gitignore matchBase semantics: patterns without / get **/ prefix,
  patterns ending with / get ** appended for directory contents
- Supports `import: .gitignore` directive to merge gitignore patterns
- Rejects negation patterns with a warning (not fully supportable)
- Integrated into both daemon and mirror commands via isTargetFile handler

Wiring:
- IgnoreRules loaded before LiveSyncBaseCore construction so beginWatch()
  receives rules when it fires during onLoad/onFirstInitialise
- Passed through initialiseServiceModulesCLI -> StorageEventManagerCLI ->
  CLIStorageEventManagerAdapter -> CLIWatchAdapter

Deployment:
- src/apps/cli/deploy/livesync-cli.service - systemd unit template
- src/apps/cli/deploy/install.sh - user/system install script

Testing:
- src/apps/cli/test/test-daemon-linux.sh - e2e tests for ignore rules
- src/apps/cli/serviceModules/IgnoreRules.unit.spec.ts - 15 unit tests
- src/apps/cli/commands/daemonCommand.unit.spec.ts - 7 unit tests
