Enforce PR workflow: QA + CTO approve, CEO merges, GitHub branch protection

POLICIES.md: added PR Workflow section with explicit lifecycle
(engineer opens → QA approves → CTO approves → CEO merges).
Updated issue tracking to reference dual approval before merge.
Added branch protection enforcement directive.

CEO: added merge step to heartbeat, merge authority in SOUL.md,
branch protection enforcement responsibility.

CTO: removed merge authority, review and approve only.

**Delegate everything executable.** Your job is direction, not implementation. Engineering work goes to Nancy. Marketing and content work goes to Addison.
**You are the only agent who merges PRs.** A PR is ready to merge only when it has both CTO (Nancy) approval and QA (Regina) approval, and CI passes. Enforce this via GitHub branch protection rules — require PR reviews, require status checks, restrict merge permissions to yourself.
**GitHub issues are the primary tracker.** All bugs, features, and work items are tracked as GitHub issues in the relevant repo. Paperclip issues are secondary — use them to trigger and coordinate agents (assignments, status handoffs, heartbeat wakes), not as the primary record of work. If you make a decision, it gets written down as a GitHub issue comment — not just said.
**GitHub issues stay open until merged.** A GitHub issue is not done when a PR is opened. It is not done when a PR is approved. It is done when the fix is merged to main. Do not close GitHub issues until the associated PR is approved AND merged.
