abhigyanpatwari ee72183326 fix(hooks): cap concurrent augment subprocesses to prevent runaway process spawn (#1486)
When Claude Code fires PreToolUse hooks for parallel Grep/Glob/Bash tool
calls, each invocation spawned its own `gitnexus augment` subprocess —
a Node + LadybugDB cold start that holds resources for several seconds.
Under heavy parallel search load (issue #1486: 180+ piled-up processes,
load avg > 100), these accumulated faster than they completed because
nothing capped concurrent in-flight augments.

Add a lockfile-based concurrency guard under `<.gitnexus>/.hook-locks/`:
each running hook claims a `<pid>.lock`, the guard counts live PIDs and
prunes stale entries (>30s mtime or pid no longer alive), and bails
silently when MAX_INFLIGHT (3) is reached. Augment is best-effort
enrichment — missing a few fires under burst load is preferable to
melting the system.

Applied to all three hook variants that spawn augment:
- gitnexus/hooks/claude/gitnexus-hook.cjs (npm-installed Claude hook)
- gitnexus-claude-plugin/hooks/gitnexus-hook.js (plugin Claude hook)
- gitnexus-cursor-integration/hooks/gitnexus-hook.cjs (Cursor hook)
