refactor(quick-dev): eliminate spec-wip.md singleton (#2214)

* refactor(quick-dev): eliminate spec-wip.md singleton

Write directly to spec-{slug}.md with status: draft instead of using
a shared spec-wip.md file. Use draft status for resume detection in
step-01. Removes wipFile variable from all step frontmatter and
workflow initialization.

* fix(quick-dev): address PR review findings

- step-02: preserve Intent block on draft resume instead of regenerating from template (F1)
- step-01: resume existing draft on slug collision rather than creating -2 duplicate (F3)
- step-01: recognize `done` status and ingest as context instead of silently re-implementing (F4)
- step-oneshot: remove unused spec_file frontmatter declaration (F6)
