fix: preserve Status/LastActivity/Progress in Current Position during begin-phase

cmdStateBeginPhase replaced the entire ## Current Position section with only
Phase and Plan lines, destroying Status, Last activity, and Progress fields.
cmdStateAdvancePlan then failed to update these fields since they no longer
existed.

Now begin-phase updates individual lines within Current Position instead of
replacing the whole section. Also adds updateCurrentPositionFields helper so
advance-plan keeps the Current Position body in sync with bold frontmatter
fields.

Fixes #1365
