feat(mma): complete Phase 6 and finalize Comprehensive GUI UX track

- Implement Live Worker Streaming: wire ai_client.comms_log_callback to Tier 3 streams
- Add Parallel DAG Execution using asyncio.gather for non-dependent tickets
- Implement Automatic Retry with Model Escalation (Flash-Lite -> Flash -> Pro)
- Add Tier Model Configuration UI to MMA Dashboard with project TOML persistence
- Fix FPS reporting in PerformanceMonitor to prevent transient 0.0 values
- Update Ticket model with retry_count and dictionary-like access
- Stabilize Gemini CLI integration tests and handle script approval events in simulations
- Finalize and verify all 6 phases of the implementation plan

Include entries for: `gemini-2.5-flash-lite` ($0.075/$0.30), `gemini-2.5-flash` ($0.15/$0.60), `gemini-3-flash-preview` ($0.15/$0.60), `gemini-3.1-pro-preview` ($3.50/$10.50), `claude-*-sonnet` ($3/$15), `claude-*-opus` ($15/$75), `deepseek-v3` ($0.27/$1.10). Function: `estimate_cost(model: str, input_tokens: int, output_tokens: int) -> float` that does pattern matching on model name and returns dollar cost.
 - [x] Task 2.2: Extend the token usage table in `_render_mma_dashboard` (gui_2.py:2685-2699) from 3 columns to 5: add "Est. Cost" and "Model". Populate using `cost_tracker.estimate_cost()` with the model name from `self.mma_tier_usage` (need to extend `tier_usage` dict in `ConductorEngine._push_state` to include model name per tier, or use a default mapping: Tier 1 → `gemini-3.1-pro-preview`, Tier 2 → `gemini-3-flash-preview`, Tier 3 → `gemini-2.5-flash-lite`, Tier 4 → `gemini-2.5-flash-lite`). Show total cost row at bottom.

On click, reads `conductor/workflow.md`, `conductor/tech-stack.md`, `conductor/product.md` using `Path.read_text()`, computes a readiness summary (files found, line counts, track count via `project_manager.get_all_tracks()`), and displays it in a read-only text region. This is informational only — no backend changes.
 - [x] Task 3.3: Add a "New Track" form below the Track Browser. Fields: track name (input_text), description (input_text_multiline), type dropdown (feature/chore/fix via `imgui.combo`). "Create" button calls a new helper `_cb_create_track(name, desc, type)` that: creates `conductor/tracks/{name}_{date}/` directory, writes a minimal `spec.md` from the description, writes an empty `plan.md` template, writes `metadata.json` with the track ID/type/status="new", then refreshes `self.tracks` via `project_manager.get_all_tracks()`.

-- [ ] Task 6.1: Wire `ai_client.comms_log_callback` to per-ticket streams during `run_worker_lifecycle` (multi_agent_conductor.py:207-300). Before calling `ai_client.send()`, set `ai_client.comms_log_callback` to a closure that pushes intermediate text chunks to the GUI via `_queue_put(event_queue, loop, "response", {"text": chunk, "stream_id": f"Tier 3 (Worker): {ticket.id}", "status": "streaming..."})`. After `send()` returns, restore the original callback. This gives real-time output streaming to the Tier 3 stream panels from Phase 1.

Each worker already gets its own `ai_client.reset_session()` so they're isolated. Guard with `ai_client._send_lock` awareness — if the lock serializes all sends, parallel execution won't help. In that case, create per-worker provider instances or use separate session IDs. Mark this task as exploratory — if `_send_lock` blocks parallelism, document the constraint and defer.
