Rename GitTally to Werkator
`gitTally` is the name of another product in the git space, so the rename is a precaution; nothing about what the build system does changes. The name follows one rule: `Werkator` where it is prose, capitalized where it is a Kotlin type and its file, lowercase everywhere a machine reads it — the command, packages, paths, configuration keys and values, the Gitea check context. Environment variables keep their convention and are uppercase throughout. Every configuration file is still found under its pre-rename name (`ConfigFiles`): `.gittally.yml` at the repository root, in a build worktree and as committed on a branch, `.git/gittally/.gittally.yml` for the machine layer. The current name wins where both exist, and the old file is then ignored rather than merged — two files side by side are a half-done rename, not a layering. Without the fallback an installation that updated without renaming would not fail: a configuration that is not found leaves every setting at its default, so it would come up looking healthy while having forgotten its credentials and its builds. `docs/werkator-migrationsplan.md` lists what the fallback does not cover and has to be moved by hand — above all the state directory `.git/werkator/`, which holds the build history, the control token and the worktrees, and has no fallback of its own. `docs/migration-from-legacy.md` is deleted with this: it mapped the legacy script's environment variables, and every host it addressed has long since moved to the YAML configuration.

Implemented as designed: `init --systemd` (an option on `init`, not a separate subcommand) generates the unit and its `EnvironmentFile` under `.git/werkator/`, prints the install commands, and never touches `~/.config/systemd` itself (no self-install).

`SystemdServiceFiles` builds the file contents and is unit-tested by content assertions, including the legacy `%` escaping and `ExecStart` quoting.
