Complete BZZZ functionality port to CHORUS

🎭 CHORUS now contains full BZZZ functionality adapted for containers

Core systems ported:
- P2P networking (libp2p with DHT and PubSub)
- Task coordination (COOEE protocol)
- HMMM collaborative reasoning
- SHHH encryption and security
- SLURP admin election system
- UCXL content addressing
- UCXI server integration
- Hypercore logging system
- Health monitoring and graceful shutdown
- License validation with KACHING

Container adaptations:
- Environment variable configuration (no YAML files)
- Container-optimized logging to stdout/stderr
- Auto-generated agent IDs for container deployments
- Docker-first architecture

All proven BZZZ P2P protocols, AI integration, and collaboration
features are now available in containerized form.

Next: Build and test container deployment.

+// Package temporal provides decision-hop temporal analysis for the SLURP contextual intelligence system.
+//
+// This package implements temporal analysis of context evolution based on decision points
+// rather than chronological time. It tracks how contexts change through different decisions,
+// analyzes decision influence networks, and provides navigation through the decision graph
+// to understand the evolution of project understanding over time.
+//
+// Key Features:
+//   - Decision-hop based temporal analysis instead of chronological progression
+//   - Context evolution tracking through decision influence graphs
+//   - Temporal navigation by conceptual distance rather than time
+//   - Decision pattern analysis and learning from historical changes
+//   - Staleness detection based on decision relationships
+//   - Conflict detection and resolution in temporal context
+//   - Decision impact analysis and propagation tracking
+//
+// Core Concepts:
+//   - Decision Hops: Conceptual distance measured by decision relationships
+//   - Temporal Nodes: Context snapshots at specific decision points
+//   - Influence Graph: Network of decisions that affect each other
+//   - Decision Timeline: Sequence of decisions affecting a context
+//   - Staleness Score: Measure of how outdated context is relative to decisions
+//
+// Core Components:
+//   - TemporalGraph: Main interface for temporal context management
+//   - DecisionNavigator: Navigation through decision-hop space
+//   - InfluenceAnalyzer: Analysis of decision influence relationships
+//   - StalenessDetector: Detection of outdated contexts
+//   - ConflictDetector: Detection of temporal conflicts
+//   - PatternAnalyzer: Analysis of decision-making patterns
+//
+// Integration Points:
+//   - pkg/slurp/context: Context types and resolution
+//   - pkg/slurp/intelligence: Decision metadata generation
+//   - pkg/slurp/storage: Persistent temporal data storage
+//   - pkg/ucxl: UCXL address parsing and handling
+//   - Version control systems: Git commit correlation
+//
+// Example Usage:
+//
+//	graph := temporal.NewTemporalGraph(storage, intelligence)
+//	ctx := context.Background()
+//	
+//	// Create initial context version
+//	initial, err := graph.CreateInitialContext(ctx, address, contextNode, "developer")
+//	if err != nil {
+//	    log.Fatal(err)
+//	}
+//	
+//	// Evolve context due to a decision
+//	decision := &DecisionMetadata{
+//	    ID: "commit-abc123",
+//	    Maker: "developer",
+//	    Rationale: "Refactored for better performance",
+//	}
+//	evolved, err := graph.EvolveContext(ctx, address, newContext, 
+//	                                   ReasonRefactoring, decision)
+//	
+//	// Navigate through decision timeline
+//	timeline, err := navigator.GetDecisionTimeline(ctx, address, true, 5)
+//	if err != nil {
+//	    log.Fatal(err)
+//	}
+//	
+//	// Find contexts affected by a decision
+//	affected, err := graph.FindRelatedDecisions(ctx, address, 3)
+//	for _, path := range affected {
+//	    fmt.Printf("Decision path: %d hops to %s\n", 
+//	               path.HopDistance, path.ToAddress)
+//	}
+//
+// Decision-Hop Analysis:
+// Unlike traditional time-based analysis, this system measures context evolution
+// by conceptual distance through decision relationships. A decision that affects
+// multiple related components may be "closer" to those components than chronologically
+// recent but unrelated changes. This provides more meaningful context for
+// understanding code evolution and architectural decisions.
+//
+// Temporal Navigation:
+// Navigation through the temporal space allows developers to understand how
+// decisions led to the current state, explore alternative decision paths,
+// and identify points where different approaches were taken. This supports
+// architectural archaeology and decision rationale understanding.
+//
+// Performance Characteristics:
+// - O(log N) lookup for temporal nodes by decision hop
+// - O(N) traversal for decision paths within hop limits  
+// - Cached decision influence graphs for fast relationship queries
+// - Background analysis for pattern detection and staleness scoring
+// - Incremental updates to minimize computational overhead
+//
+// Consistency Model:
+// Temporal data maintains consistency through eventual convergence across
+// the cluster, with conflict resolution based on decision metadata and
+// vector clocks. The system handles concurrent decision recording and
+// provides mechanisms for resolving temporal conflicts when they occur.
