feat(orchestrator): W2 Kanban board with swimlanes and forecast

Tasks gain a Kanban board: columns Waiting, Running and Done, swimlanes P1 to P4+ and Unpinned by WSJF, after-dependency arrows and the dashed queue line; drag and drop stages status, pin and dependency moves that apply with one passkey. The burn chart gets the trend and a forecast. Committed below the bar on the operator's word 2026-11-12 (no further per-bundle tests, one gate after the merge): the W2 e2e never ran.

🎯 Fix: 80 %
💥 Break: 10 %
💸 Cost: 100 %
⏱️ Time: 100 %
🛡️ Security: 100 %
🏆 Score: 72
🚦 Gate: ⛔ fix 80 % < 90, break 10 % > 5
