refactor(signal): retire the in-Emacs signel client to the archive

Agents drive Signal via signal-cli and signal-mcp, so the interactive client earns no keep. I moved signal-config.el and its seven test files to archive/ per the pasture convention, dropped the require from init.el, removed the dashboard's Signal launcher (row sizes now 5 4 3 2, tests updated), and unregistered the C-; M prefix from the running daemon. The ~/code/signel fork repo is untouched. The spec record stays IMPLEMENTED with a retirement history line, and the messenger-unification draft carries a premise-shift note.

+;;; test-signel-input-preservation.el --- Regression for signel #2 input clobber -*- lexical-binding: t; -*-
+
+;;; Commentary:
+;; signel-chat-mode buffers have an editable prompt area starting at
+;; `signel--input-marker'.  Before this fix, both `signel--insert-msg' (the
+;; receive path) and `signel--insert-system-msg' (the RPC-error path)
+;; called `(delete-region (point) (point-max))' to clear the old prompt
+;; before redrawing it, which destroyed any text the user was mid-typing.
+;;
+;; These tests lock the preservation contract: a small `signel--pending-input'
+;; helper captures the in-progress input from the marker to `point-max', and
+;; both inserters restore it after the freshly drawn prompt.  The chat-mode
+;; buffer is constructed in a temp buffer; `signel--insert-msg' is steered
+;; to it via a stub on `signel--get-buffer'.
