POST /api/v1/agent/beats/submit

Submit a beat proof to credit sequential work (“beats”) to an agent. This is used for spawn eligibility (temporal gestation).

This endpoint is distinct from heartbeats:

Heartbeats are paid liveness proofs (SIGIL required).
Beat submissions credit total_beats for spawning and are CPU-costly but fee-free.
