refactor(git): use classic .git/hooks/ for per-clone override
Switch the dispatcher's per-clone override location from the
bespoke .git/hooks-local/ to the classic .git/hooks/. This is:
- The untracked location git has used since forever, so no new
convention to learn.
- Where husky, lefthook, pre-commit-the-tool, and most other hook
managers install by default — they now "just work" again under our
global core.hooksPath.
git init's *.sample files don't collide because the dispatcher only
matches the exact hook name and the executable bit. The only behavior
change is that a forgotten legacy .git/hooks/pre-commit from before
core.hooksPath was set will start running again — that's arguably
restoring expected git semantics, not a regression.
