Persist only named/prewarmed sessions, not implicit ones

Implicit sessions (dosh host with no --session) get a random
term-<millis>-<pid> name you can never reattach to, so persisting them just
left unreattachable holder processes lingering across restarts. The server
now only uses a persistent holder for prewarmed or explicitly-named
sessions; implicit ones use the in-process shell that dies on restart and
reaps on disconnect, as before. Adds a shared
protocol::{generate,is}_implicit_session_name as the single source of truth
for the name shape, used by both client (generate) and server (detect).

Server-only behavior change; wire VERSION unchanged.
