fix(scripts): report only what generation changed, not the worktree

The codegen-check hook was `go generate` followed by a bare
`git diff --name-only`, which is the whole unstaged worktree rather than
the generators' output. So a commit whose staged changes were fine failed
whenever anything unrelated sat unstaged — notes, a plan document, the
next commit's files — reporting "Generated code is out of date" and then
a diffstat of files no generator has ever written. `make generate` fixed
nothing, because nothing was stale, so the message sent you looking for a
codegen problem that did not exist. Splitting one piece of work into
several commits is exactly the shape that triggers it.

The tree is snapshotted either side of `go generate` and only what moved
across it is reported. That is deliberately a snapshot rather than the
list of generated paths the issue offers as the other option: a fourth
generator is one //go:generate line away, and a path list is a second
place to remember it.

Two things it has to get right. The comparison is a *symmetric*
difference, because generation can push a file into the unstaged set or
pull it out of one — a hand-edited generated file that the generator puts
back is stale generated code just as much as a source change that
outdates it, and comparing one direction reports it as current. And the
snapshot is content, not names, or a generated file that was already
dirty and is then rewritten further keeps its name on both sides and
slips through.

Closes #131
