Subject: [PATCH] fix(install): install jq prerequisite (active hooks require
 it)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

jq is used 18+ times in always-on hooks (statusline.sh, rtk-rewrite.sh)
but was never installed by any script — it only worked because dev
machines happened to have it; a bare machine breaks at hook-run time.
Add it to Step 1 (same inline pattern as the other prereqs) and to
doctor.sh at fail level.
