Gateway bot: proxy commands to active project instead of reading local state

In gateway mode the bot has no local CRDT or project filesystem, so all bot commands (status, backlog, start, assign, etc.) returned empty or broken results. Now the gateway bot proxies non-local commands via HTTP to the active project's /api/bot/command endpoint, which already exists on every project server. Only a small set of gateway-local commands (help, ambient, reset, switch) are still handled directly by the gateway. Everything else is forwarded automatically, so new commands added in the future will work through the proxy without additional gateway changes.
