chore: add BSD-2-Clause license and ignore rules

The repository had no license, which blocks distribution and left the
README's "setup license" item open. Ignore rules now cover the runtime
data directory, coverage output, and local assistant notes.

Class:        Process/docs only
Requirements: none — no source changed
Verified:     no source changed; gate unaffected
