chore(repo): suppress generated dist/ artifacts in diffs

dist/*.c and *.elh are elc transpiler output. CI's header-gen step still greps dist/*.c, so they stay tracked, but a single soul change regenerates ~57k lines of dist/neuron.c + dist/soul.c that bury the real source diff and poison both human and agent PR review. Mark them -diff + linguist-generated so PRs show only the real changes. Build pipeline unchanged.

+# ── Generated build artifacts ────────────────────────────────────────────────
+# dist/ holds elc transpiler output (*.c, *.elh) plus the generated decls header.
+# CI consumes these (the "Generate ELP master declarations header" step greps
+# dist/*.c), so they stay TRACKED. But they are machine-generated and must never
+# bloat a review. A single soul change regenerates dist/neuron.c + dist/soul.c =
+# ~57,000 lines of churn that buries the real ~few-hundred-line source diff and
+# poisons both human review and the agent review pipeline.
+#
+#   -diff               → git emits "Binary files differ" instead of the text diff
+#   linguist-generated  → Gitea collapses the file in the PR view + drops it from
+#                          language stats
+#
+# Net effect: PRs show only the real .el/source changes; the build is untouched.
