docs: remove implemented per-job timeout plan

The per-job command timeout is now shipped (0.12.0); its ROADMAP entry is
gone, so the implementation plan is no longer needed.

+### Per-job command timeout
+
+`domain.Job` carries a `TimeoutSeconds` field (`json:"timeout_seconds,omitempty"`),
+following the same inherit pattern as the overlap policy. `0` means inherit the
+global `Config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds` (default **30**); a positive value overrides
+it for that job alone. `app.Service.effectiveTimeout` resolves the effective
+duration under `mu` and `startRunLocked` snapshots it into `runEnv.timeout`.
+`runner.RunJob(ctx, job, trigger, logsDir, timeout)` takes the resolved duration
+as an argument, so the runner stays ignorant of the global config: it applies the
+timeout via `context.WithTimeout` and reports `Timed out after <timeout>` on
+expiry. `StartOnly` jobs run on the untimed context and so measure launch latency
+only, unaffected by the run timeout.

+**Per-job command timeout:**
+- Each job may now set its own run timeout (seconds) in the job dialog; leaving

+  value, marking inherited jobs as `(global default)`.

 ## Open Items
 
-### Per-job command timeout

-`runner.RunJob` applies a fixed **30s** timeout to every command (`commandTimeout`

-limit; quick health checks may need a shorter one.
-
-Add an optional per-job timeout (seconds) on `domain.Job`, with a global default
-in `gosentry.json` for jobs that leave the field empty — the same inherit pattern
-as `overlap_policy`. Wire the value through `RunJob`; expose it in the job dialog
-and Settings; validate on save. `StartOnly` jobs should keep measuring launch
-latency only and remain unaffected by the run timeout.

-# План реализации: Per-job command timeout
-
-Реализация пункта **«Per-job command timeout»** из [ROADMAP.md](../ROADMAP.md),
-построенная по образцу уже реализованного `overlap_policy` — тот же паттерн
-наследования «пусто → глобальный дефолт».
-
-## Рекомендуемая модель
-
-**Claude Opus** (Opus 4.8 или новее).
-
-Обоснование: это не локальная правка, а сквозное изменение через слои
-(`domain → storage → runner → app seam → ui → tests`) со сменой сигнатуры
-`RunJob` и seam-типа `Service.runJob`, что затрагивает ~9 существующих тестов и
-несколько UI-файлов. Нужна аккуратность в резолве эффективного значения под
-`mu` и в сохранении контракта «раннер не знает о глобальном конфиге». Для такой
-кросс-слойной работы с тестами уместен Opus; Sonnet справится с отдельными
-шагами, но выше риск упустить обновление одного из вызовов/тестов.
-
-Замечание по окружению: сборка и тесты GUI требуют **CGO + MSYS2 UCRT64**
-(дефолтный Bash-env идёт с `cgo off`).
-
----
-
-## Модель данных
-
-**[src/domain/job.go](../../src/domain/job.go)** — добавить поле в `Job`:
-
-```go
-TimeoutSeconds int `json:"timeout_seconds,omitempty"` // 0 = наследовать глобальный дефолт
-```
-
-**[src/domain/config.go](../../src/domain/config.go)** — добавить в `Config`:
-
-```go
-DefaultTimeoutSeconds int `json:"default_timeout_seconds,omitempty"`
-```
-
-Ключевое соглашение (как у `OverlapPolicy`): `0` на `Job` означает
-«наследовать», поэтому `normalizeJob` не должен затирать 0 глобальным значением.
-
-## Дефолты и загрузка
-
-**[src/storage/store.go](../../src/storage/store.go)** — по образцу `OverlapPolicy`:
-
-- в литерал дефолтного `Config` добавить `DefaultTimeoutSeconds: 30`
-  (сохраняет текущее поведение — 30 с);
-- в блоке нормализации после загрузки:
-  `if config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds <= 0 { config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds = 30 }`.
-
-Это переносит нынешнюю константу `commandTimeout = 30s` из `runner.go` в конфиг
-как значение по умолчанию.
-
-## Runner (сохранить чистоту контракта)
-
-Раннер не должен знать о глобальном конфиге — эффективный таймаут резолвится в
-app-слое и передаётся внутрь.
-
-**[src/runner/runner.go](../../src/runner/runner.go)**:
-
-- сигнатура `RunJob(ctx, job, trigger, logsDir)` →
-  `RunJob(ctx, job, trigger, logsDir, timeout time.Duration)`;
-- `runCtx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(ctx, timeout)` вместо константы;
-- `runStateDetail(...)` принимает `timeout` и печатает его в сообщении
-  `"Timed out after %s"` вместо `commandTimeout`;
-- **StartOnly не трогаем**: эта ветка использует `jobInvocation(ctx, …)`
-  (не `runCtx`), поэтому run-таймаут её не касается — измерение launch latency
-  сохраняется. Константу `commandTimeout` можно удалить, `commandWaitDelay`
-  оставить.
-
-## App-слой: резолв и проброс
-
-**[src/app/run.go](../../src/app/run.go)** — добавить рядом с
-`effectiveOverlapPolicy`:
-
-```go
-func (s *Service) effectiveTimeout(job *domain.Job) time.Duration {
-    secs := job.TimeoutSeconds
-    if secs <= 0 {
-        secs = s.store.Config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds
-    }
-    return time.Duration(secs) * time.Second
-}
-```
-
-Резолвить под `mu` в `startRunLocked` и класть в снапшот `runEnv` (там же, где
-`logsDir`/`maxFiles`) — новое поле `timeout time.Duration`. В `executeRun`
-передавать `env.timeout` в `s.runJob(...)`.
-
-**[src/app/service.go](../../src/app/service.go)** — обновить тип seam-поля
-`runJob` (добавить `timeout time.Duration`); присваивание
-`runJob: runner.RunJob` останется валидным после смены сигнатуры.
-
-## Валидация
-
-**[src/app/operations.go](../../src/app/operations.go)**:
-
-- `validateJob`:
-  `if job.TimeoutSeconds < 0 { return errors.New("timeout must be zero (inherit) or a positive number of seconds") }`;
-- `validateConfig`:
-  `if config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds <= 0 { return errors.New("default timeout must be a positive number of seconds") }`.
-
-## UI
-
-**Диалог задачи [src/ui/job_dialog.go](../../src/ui/job_dialog.go)** — рядом с
-«Overlap policy»: числовой `widget.NewEntry` «Timeout (s)» с плейсхолдером-
-подсказкой про наследование; пусто → `TimeoutSeconds = 0`, иначе `strconv.Atoi`
-с показом ошибки как у schedule.
-
-**Настройки [src/ui/settings_view.go](../../src/ui/settings_view.go)** — в секцию
-«Queue» добавить поле «Default timeout (s)» рядом с «Default overlap policy»:
-инициализация из `store.Config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds`,
-`OnChanged → updateSaveState`, запись в `config.DefaultTimeoutSeconds` при
-сохранении и учёт в dirty-check.
-
-**Панель деталей [src/ui/jobs_view_details.go](../../src/ui/jobs_view_details.go)**
-— новая строка «Timeout», отображающая эффективное значение через новый хелпер
-в [src/app/format.go](../../src/app/format.go):
-
-```go
-func DisplayTimeout(job domain.Job, globalDefault int) string // "45 s" или "30 s (global default)"
-```
-
-по образцу `DisplayOverlapPolicy`. Прокинуть `globalDefault` в
-`newDetailsPanel/update` так же, как уже прокинут `globalOverlapPolicy`.
-
-## Тесты
-
-- **[src/runner/runner_test.go](../../src/runner/runner_test.go)** — все 9 вызовов
-  `RunJob` получают новый аргумент; добавить кейс: короткий per-job таймаут →
-  `Failed / Timed out after …`; StartOnly с малым таймаутом → не таймаутит.
-- **[src/app/run_test.go](../../src/app/run_test.go)** — тест `effectiveTimeout`:
-  инхерит при `TimeoutSeconds==0`, собственное значение перекрывает глобальное.
-- **[src/app/operations_test.go](../../src/app/operations_test.go)** —
-  отрицательный per-job timeout и неположительный default отклоняются.
-- **[src/app/format_test.go](../../src/app/format_test.go)** — `DisplayTimeout`
-  (собственное значение vs «(global default)»).
-- **settings / mainwindow тесты** — при необходимости обновить конструкторы
-  `Config`.
-
-## Документация
-
-- Удалить раздел из [ROADMAP.md](../ROADMAP.md).
-- Обновить упоминания сигнатуры/таймаута `RunJob` в
-  [ARCHITECTURE.md](../ARCHITECTURE.md).
-- Запись в [CHANGELOG.md](../CHANGELOG.md).
-
-## Порядок работ
-
-1. `domain` → storage-дефолты (компилируется, поведение прежнее);
-2. `runner` + seam-сигнатура + прогон таймаута через `runEnv` → чиним
-   компиляцию тестов;
-3. валидация;
-4. UI (диалог, настройки, детали);
-5. тесты + доки.
