fix: Codex Round 5 — OVERRIDES alias expansion, overload docs, Dart label gate

1. OVERRIDES alias expansion: _impactImpl now uses flatMap to include
   BOTH OVERRIDES and METHOD_OVERRIDES in the BFS filter when the caller
   requests OVERRIDES. Ensures legacy indexes are traversed correctly.

2. Overload limitation documented: added JSDoc above emitMethodImplementsEdges
   explaining that parameterTypes matching assumes distinct overload nodes,
   which the graph model doesn't currently guarantee (separate RFC).

3. Dart label gate: findInheritedMethod IMPLEMENTS BFS now checks node
   label — only Interface/Trait parents are processed. Dart-style
   implements-Class patterns don't falsely inherit concrete method bodies.

2 new tests: Dart implements-Class produces 0 edges, Interface default
still works after label gate.
