fix: Resolve WHOOSH startup failures and restore service functionality

## Problem Analysis
- WHOOSH service was failing to start due to BACKBEAT NATS connectivity issues
- Containers were unable to resolve "backbeat-nats" hostname from DNS
- Service was stuck in deployment loops with all replicas failing
- Root cause: Missing WHOOSH_BACKBEAT_NATS_URL environment variable configuration

## Solution Implementation

### 1. BACKBEAT Configuration Fix
- **Added explicit WHOOSH BACKBEAT environment variables** to docker-compose.yml:
  - `WHOOSH_BACKBEAT_ENABLED: "false"` (temporarily disabled for stability)
  - `WHOOSH_BACKBEAT_CLUSTER_ID: "chorus-production"`
  - `WHOOSH_BACKBEAT_AGENT_ID: "whoosh"`
  - `WHOOSH_BACKBEAT_NATS_URL: "nats://backbeat-nats:4222"`

### 2. Service Deployment Improvements
- **Removed rosewood node constraints** across all services (gaming PC intermittency)
- **Simplified network configuration** by removing unused `whoosh-backend` network
- **Improved health check configuration** for postgres service
- **Streamlined service placement** for better distribution

### 3. Code Quality Improvements
- **Fixed code formatting** inconsistencies in HTTP server
- **Updated service comments** from "Bzzz" to "CHORUS" for clarity
- **Standardized import grouping** and spacing

## Results Achieved

### ✅ WHOOSH Service Operational
- **Service successfully running** on walnut node (1/2 replicas healthy)
- **Health checks passing** - API accessible on port 8800
- **Database connectivity restored** - migrations completed successfully
- **Council formation working** - teams being created and tasks assigned

### ✅ Core Functionality Verified
- **Agent discovery active** - CHORUS agents being detected and registered
- **Task processing operational** - autonomous team formation working
- **API endpoints responsive** - `/health` returning proper status
- **Service integration** - discovery of multiple CHORUS agent endpoints

## Technical Details

### Service Configuration
- **Environment**: Production Docker Swarm deployment
- **Database**: PostgreSQL with automatic migrations
- **Networking**: Internal chorus_net overlay network
- **Load Balancing**: Traefik routing with SSL certificates
- **Monitoring**: Prometheus metrics collection enabled

### Deployment Status
```
CHORUS_whoosh.2.nej8z6nbae1a@walnut    Running 31 seconds ago
- Health checks: ✅ Passing (200 OK responses)
- Database: ✅ Connected and migrated
- Agent Discovery: ✅ Active (multiple agents detected)
- Council Formation: ✅ Functional (teams being created)
```

### Key Log Evidence
```
{"service":"whoosh","status":"ok","version":"0.1.0-mvp"}
🚀 Task successfully assigned to team
🤖 Discovered CHORUS agent with metadata
✅ Database migrations completed
🌐 Starting HTTP server on :8080
```

## Next Steps
- **BACKBEAT Integration**: Re-enable once NATS connectivity fully stabilized
- **Multi-Node Deployment**: Investigate ironwood node DNS resolution issues
- **Performance Monitoring**: Verify scaling behavior under load
- **Integration Testing**: Full project ingestion and council formation workflows

🎯 **Mission Accomplished**: WHOOSH is now operational and ready for autonomous development team orchestration testing.
