code-index v0.5.7

A correctness + robustness point release. Six issues found by dogfooding the
live v0.5.6 MCP server are fixed, each with end-to-end tests and an independent
multi-reviewer pass. Schema advances v10 → v11 (auto-migrated on first run —
see the upgrade note below).

Three-binary release: code-index-mcp (MCP stdio bridge — the usual entry),
code-index-daemon (long-lived watcher + RPC server, auto-spawned), and
code-index (CLI: init, index, watch, doctor, link).

Fixes

get_dependencies(direction:"in"/"both") now finds qualified importers.
The reverse-dependency lookup matched import paths by whole-string equality, so
a qualified import (use crate::gitdiff::X, from pkg.services import Y,
../util/fs) never matched a file's module name and the tool returned zero
importers for essentially every file. It now matches by path segment.
find_references(exclude_tests:true) now hides refs in *_tests modules.
Test-role tagging only recognized modules named exactly tests/test, so refs
inside #[cfg(test)] mod foo_tests { … } (a common convention) leaked into
results and under-counted excluded_test_refs. The rule now also covers
*_test/*_tests (case-sensitive, matching Rust conventions).
changed_symbols no longer errors on large diffs. A branch-wide diff
(base="main") could exceed the response size limit and hard-error. The
response is now bounded (total files + symbols, including untracked) and
reports truncated with honest omitted_files/omitted_symbols counts —
it degrades gracefully instead of failing.
changed_symbols no longer flags text files as stale. index_stale fired
on non-source files (Cargo.lock, .md, …) that have no symbols to shift. It now
only applies to language-parsed source files.
file_outline concise docs now accurately list end_line (always emitted).

Upgrade note (schema v11)

Migration m0011 re-applies the broadened test-module tagging to your existing
index on first open — a one-time, additive, idempotent pass, no reparse
required. After upgrading, exclude_tests immediately works correctly on
already-indexed files (verified on a real index: ~2,400 previously-missed test
refs corrected in place).
