kernel: M1 shared-fate — Task.leader id, kill/signal re-keyed to the leader

Every task carries its process leader's id (main task: own id; threads:
copied from the spawner; kernel tasks: 0, never followed). process_kill and
process_signal resolve any member id to the leader and authorize against the
leader's supervisor, making both capabilities per-process. ProcessDescriptor
gains the leader field. No fan-out yet (docs/shared-fate-plan.md M1).
