fix(#3797): make the roadmapper's role, output, and checklist match its write-first execution flow (#4008)

* test(#3797): the roadmapper must follow one write-first contract

* fix(#3797): make the roadmapper's role, output, and checklist match its write-first execution flow

The roadmapper contradicted itself: role blurb, output format, and
completion checklist described an approve-first flow while its execution
flow said "Write Files Immediately" with reactive-only revision (#3797).
The approval gate belongs to the ORCHESTRATOR — both callers read the
written ROADMAP.md, present it, and gate on approval (with an auto-mode
bypass a subagent cannot host) — so write-first is the contract.

All approve-first text now describes the write-then-return reality, the
old "Draft Presentation Format" (whose ## ROADMAP DRAFT header matched no
orchestrator branch) is folded into the ## ROADMAP CREATED structured
return as a preview block, and the duplicate checklist lines are merged.
A structural guard pins the single contract.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: gsd-roadmapper.md — #3797: +bytes — approve-first wording replaced with write-first descriptions; the DRAFT presentation template folded into the ROADMAP CREATED return as a preview block

* chore(#3797): backfill changeset PR number (4008)

// #3797 — gsd-roadmapper must follow ONE contract: write-first.
//
// The agent's role blurb, output format, and completion checklist described
// an approve-first flow ("Return structured draft for user approval",
// "Awaiting / Approve roadmap", "Files written (after approval)") while its
// execution flow said "Write Files Immediately ... Write files first, then
// return" with reactive-only revision. The approval gate belongs to the
// ORCHESTRATOR (new-project.md reads the written ROADMAP.md, presents it,
// and gates on approval/auto-mode itself — a subagent cannot host the user
// loop). The agent's write-first execution flow is the intentional contract
// (explicit durability rationale; the #2255 write-guard arming in the same
// Step 7); the approve-first text is a leftover and must not return.
