Dario Gabriel LipicarandClaude Opus 5 1afcf46f4d refactor(cpp-generator): merge legacy/ into the generator, dropping its dead half
`legacy/` was never a library with an API surface. Two files, 475 lines, exactly
one exported symbol — `int legacy_main(int, char**)` — with every other
definition `static`, compiled INTO logos-cpp-generator and reached by fallthrough
at the end of main(). So there was nothing to keep separate: it is one mode of
this binary, and it now lives beside the others as plugin_introspect.{cpp,h}
behind `runPluginIntrospectMode()`, named for what it does.

Deleting it was never an option — that premise was checked and refused earlier.
`--general-only` alone has ~10 live callers across 7 repos including the central
module path (buildPlugin.nix:206,211, buildHeaders.nix:221,
LogosModule.cmake:423). The mode is load-bearing; only its packaging was wrong.

110 lines go with the move, all genuinely unreferenced:

  * cppStringEscape — zero callers anywhere.
  * writeUmbrellaHeader / writeUmbrellaSource and the `if (!moduleOnly)` block
    that called them. This is the real prize: a SECOND, directory-SCRAPING
    implementation of logos_sdk.{h,cpp}, unreachable in practice because
    generate-module-headers.sh:60 always passes --module-only. generator_lib's
    deps-driven makeUmbrella*FromDeps is now the only umbrella emitter, so the
    two cannot drift.
  * a dead `QJsonDocument doc(methods);` and its commented-out use.

With the block gone, `--module-only` suppresses nothing, so the parameter and
its plumbing go too. The FLAG stays tolerated rather than rejected, because
generate-module-headers.sh passes it unconditionally — a comment at the old
parse site says so.

Verified: #default builds, and both checks pass — `generator-cli` (which
exercises the CLI surface, including --general-only) and `tests`.
