feat: implement Tier 3 features — lane queue, credential redaction, token dashboard, xAI, Voyage AI

- Lane Queue: per-session FIFO queue in gateway replacing reject-when-busy (9 tests)
- Credential Redaction: redactConfig() expanded to cover 18+ secret fields (16 tests)
- Web UI Token Dashboard: system.tokenUsage endpoint + Usage page with summary cards
- xAI (Grok) Provider: OpenAI-compatible client with model pricing
- Voyage AI Embeddings: new embedding provider with configurable dimensions (5 tests)
- Update gap analysis: 90→95 match (70%→74%), Tier 3 section marked DONE
- Update state.json: test count 1001→1034, add tier3_completion entry

Total: 1034 tests passing across 85 files, typecheck clean

# Flynn vs OpenClaw — Feature Gap Analysis
**Date:** 2026-02-06
**Last updated:** 2026-02-07 (post tier-2 implementation)
**Last updated:** 2026-02-09 (refreshed against OpenClaw v2026.2.6)
**Purpose:** Comprehensive comparison of Flynn's current implementation against OpenClaw's feature set, to guide prioritisation of future work.
