Brecht-H 3f97297413 feat(kanban): surface task_runs.summary on dashboard cards + `kanban show`
The kanban-worker skill (built into the gateway dispatcher's spawn
prompt) instructs every worker to hand off via
``kanban_complete(summary=..., metadata=...)``. That writes the summary
onto the closing ``task_runs`` row, NOT onto ``tasks.result`` — the
latter is left NULL unless the caller passes ``result=`` explicitly.

Result: a glance at the dashboard or ``hermes kanban show <id>`` shows
a blank "Result:" section even when the worker did real work, which
on 2026-05-05 caused a Mac false-alarm ("Hermes did nothing") on a
task that had a 10-line completion summary on its run.

This patch surfaces the latest non-null run summary as
``latest_summary`` so the worker's actual handoff lands in front of
operators.

* New helpers ``kanban_db.latest_summary(conn, task_id)`` and
  ``kanban_db.latest_summaries(conn, task_ids)``. The batch variant
  uses a single window-function SELECT so the dashboard board endpoint
  doesn't pay an N+1 cost on multi-hundred-task boards.
* CLI ``hermes kanban show <id>`` prints a "Latest summary:" block
  when ``tasks.result`` is empty but a run has produced a summary
  (the existing "Result:" section still wins when populated, so the
  back-compat path for hand-edited results is untouched). JSON output
  gains a top-level ``latest_summary`` field.
* Dashboard ``/board`` and ``/tasks/{id}`` now include a
  ``latest_summary`` field on every task. Cards on /board carry a
  200-character preview (cheap to render, plenty for "what did this
  worker do?" at a glance); the drawer/detail endpoint returns the
  full summary.
* Five new tests cover: empty-runs case, post-complete surface,
  newest-of-multiple selection, empty-string skip, batch with
  missing tasks + empty input.

Smoke-tested locally against the live profile DB on the three
acceptance-criterion targets (t_f08fef91 cron-hygiene-audit,
t_007b7f1c EMA-analysis, t_05746fa4 self-assessment) — all three now
return their populated summaries via both ``latest_summary`` and
``latest_summaries``.

Test plan: 255/255 kanban tests pass + 91/91 dashboard plugin tests
pass. No regression on tasks where ``tasks.result`` is explicitly
populated (the existing "Result:" branch is preserved).
