chore(flake): treefmt + deadnix/statix + pre-commit; relocate work module

- treefmt-nix drives `nix fmt` and the formatting check (nixfmt/shfmt/
  prettier; generated files and flake.lock excluded). Replaces the
  bespoke find-based check.
- deadnix and statix as flake checks and pre-commit hooks; deadnix
  ignores module-arg patterns, statix.toml disables the two house-style
  lints (repeated_keys, empty_pattern). Fixed the one real deadnix hit
  (unused overlay arg) and statix hit (use inherit for claude-code).
- git-hooks.nix installs the pre-commit gate via the devShell.
- .editorconfig for the base style.
- Move system/modules/work/default.nix -> lyrathorpe/home/work.nix (it is
  a home-manager module). README gains a Development section; docs
  reformatted by the new formatter.

+- `nix develop` — shell with `deadnix`, `statix`, `treefmt`, and the git
+  `pre-commit` hooks (installed automatically on first entry).
+- `nix fmt` — formats the tree via `treefmt` (nixfmt + shfmt + prettier;
+  generated files and `flake.lock` are excluded).
+- `nix flake check` — runs formatting, `deadnix`, `statix`, the pre-commit
+  hooks, and evaluates every host. `.editorconfig` carries the base style;
+  `statix.toml` disables the two house-style lints (`repeated_keys`,
+  `empty_pattern`).

+## tmux
+
+**Auto-start:** opening any interactive terminal — foot, iTerm2, the WSL shell, the
+Linux console — drops you straight into a tmux session named `main` (attach if it
+exists, else create). Panes run a plain non-login zsh. It deliberately does **not**
+fire for SSH sessions, VS Code's integrated terminal, already-inside-tmux, or
+non-interactive shells. Escape hatch: `NO_TMUX=1 <terminal>` opens a bare shell.

+`yank`, `catppuccin` (Mocha statusline), `resurrect` + `continuum`
+(sessions auto-save and restore across reboots). The statusline draws Nerd-Font
+glyphs — see Fonts.
+
+## Fonts
+
+**JetBrainsMono Nerd Font** is installed on every host (in `common-nixos.nix`,
+because tmux runs everywhere; the Mac installs it to `/Library/Fonts` via the
+Darwin config). foot uses it as its main font automatically. iTerm2's font is a
+GUI setting — set it to _JetBrainsMono Nerd Font_ (Settings → Profiles → Text →
+Font) so the tmux statusline glyphs render instead of `?`.
+
+## git
+
+Pager is **delta**. **commitizen** is installed on every host; `cz` defaults to
+Conventional Commits.

+| Feature      | Notes                                                                                                                                                |
+| ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| ssh-agent    | runs on Linux (launchd on macOS); keys added on **first use** so the passphrase is typed once per login session — this also feeds git commit signing |
+| macOS        | `UseKeychain` caches the passphrase in the login keychain (guarded by `IgnoreUnknown`, so a non-Apple `ssh` skips it instead of erroring)            |
+| Gitea remote | `code.emmathe.dev` → `HostName 10.187.1.76` (DNS-override), `Port 30009`, user `git`, dedicated key, `identitiesOnly`                                |
+| Defaults     | the module's deprecated default block is opted out; equivalents kept under `settings."*"`                                                            |
+
+The **work box keeps its own `~/.ssh/config`** (home-manager's `programs.ssh` is
+forced off there) but still runs the agent.
+
+## Maintenance behaviours
+
+- **zcompdump reset** — `~/.zcompdump*` is removed on every activation, so a stale
+  dump (pointing at `/nix/store` paths a rebuild or a manual GC removed) can't
+  break completion with `_git: function definition file not found`.
+- **GC** — no scheduled timer; collect garbage deliberately (`nh clean all` /
+  `nix-collect-garbage -d`) when no important session is running.
