fix(gateway): fall back to the pooler when the derived direct host is unreachable (#1641)

deriveDirectUrl() swaps the Supabase pooler host to db.<ref>.supabase.co:5432,
which is IPv6-only without the paid IPv4 add-on. On IPv4-only networks the
direct pool could never connect, and initDirectPool()'s throw killed
'gbrain init --url' and migrations with ENOTFOUND/ECONNREFUSED.

getDirectPool() now classifies network-unreachable errors (ENOTFOUND,
ECONNREFUSED, ENETUNREACH, EHOSTUNREACH, ETIMEDOUT, CONNECT_TIMEOUT) via the
new isNetworkUnreachableError(), self-activates the kill-switch, logs one
stderr line pointing at GBRAIN_DIRECT_DATABASE_URL / GBRAIN_DISABLE_DIRECT_POOL,
and returns the read pool. Auth/SQL errors still throw (misconfig, not
unreachability). The failed pool is ended via endPoolBounded so it can't
leak sockets into the now-continuing process.

Also surfaces the kill-switch + override envs in the init.ts IPv6 warnings
and docs/guides/live-sync.md (they were previously undocumented outside
connection-manager.ts).

Fixes #1641
