Credentials are warmed up early at several entry points

Credentials are loaded early at several entry points, which should shave startup delays.

What

A new fast-path credential priming step, absent entirely in 2.1.245, now runs before other work at the background daemon's command line, the computer-use MCP server and several other entry points.

Details
  • Each caller loads the priming function and the credential store on demand and awaits the result; the daemon runs it in parallel with fetching policy limits.
  • The daemon command line now takes storage as an argument rather than deriving it.
  • Runs only on the newer credential-storage branch, guarded by the same check as the surrounding policy-limits warm-up.
