Dotta 68c37660f0 Dispatch assigned todo work during recovery sweeps (#4614)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip orchestrates AI agents for autonomous companies.
> - Agent assignments must reliably turn into heartbeat work without
board operators manually nudging stuck tasks.
> - The stranded-assignment recovery sweep already handles failed or
lost runs.
> - But assigned `todo` issues with no prior run could sit idle because
there was nothing to retry or recover.
> - This pull request dispatches those never-started assigned todos as
normal assignment wakes.
> - The benefit is that recovery fixes missed initial dispatches without
creating unnecessary recovery issues.

## What Changed

- Added an initial assigned-todo dispatch path to the recovery service
when an assigned `todo` issue has no heartbeat run yet.
- Reused invocation budget hard-stop checks before dispatching or
requeueing recovery work.
- Counted `assignmentDispatched` in startup/scheduled recovery logs.
- Added heartbeat recovery regressions for first dispatch, duplicate
queued wake prevention, budget-blocked skips, and paused-agent skips.

## Verification

- `pnpm exec vitest run
server/src/__tests__/heartbeat-process-recovery.test.ts`

## Risks

- Low to medium risk: this changes liveness recovery behavior for
assigned `todo` issues, but it stays on the existing assignment wake
path and skips paused or budget-blocked agents.
- No migrations.

## Model Used

- OpenAI Codex coding agent based on GPT-5, tool-enabled local
repository and shell access, Paperclip heartbeat context.
