feat(P04): Add IDEATE stage to orchestrator pipeline — IDEATE-16

- Add ideation-agent to STAGE_AGENT_MAP for ideate stage
- Implement ideate case in executeStage() with mechanical ideation,
  config-aware category filtering, idea deduplication, auto-accept,
  and ---ci--- commit with decision block
- Add test verifying ideate position between research and plan in
  STAGE_ORDER
- 542 tests passing
