Fix council formation broadcast and reduce core roles

Two critical fixes for E2E council workflow:

1. Reduced core council roles from 8 to 2 (tpm + senior-software-architect)
   - Faster council formation
   - Easier debugging
   - Sufficient for initial project planning

2. Added broadcast to monitor path
   - Monitor now broadcasts council opportunities to CHORUS agents
   - Previously only webhook path had broadcast, monitor path missed it
   - Added broadcaster parameter to NewMonitor()
   - Broadcast sent after council formation with 30s timeout

Verified working:
- Council formation successful
- Broadcast to CHORUS agents confirmed
- Role claims received (TPM claimed and loaded)
- Persona status "loaded" acknowledged
