self-review 2026-06-19: filter auto_term to Memory/BacklogItem/Entity only

Browse Source 
Knowledge nodes dominated the WM-autobiographical auto_term slot:
'Numeric tier strings...' (a Knowledge node) always scored highest
in WM and its first word 'Numeric' became the curiosity seed every
scan — activating more Numeric nodes, keeping that node in WM,
repeating indefinitely.

Fix: only derive auto_term from Memory, BacklogItem, or Entity nodes.
Knowledge nodes are reference material, not live context. Dynamic/
personal nodes carry the salience worth radiating from.

Also patches proactive_curiosity directly in dist/neuron.c (ELC
cannot compile soul.el within timeout — fallback build pattern).
