fix(doctor): scope timeline labels to disambiguate entity coverage vs brain-score component (#2298)

doctor and the get_health CLI surface printed two different timeline
metrics under one ambiguous 'timeline' label: the entity-scoped
timeline_coverage fraction (eligible entity pages with a timeline entry)
and the whole-brain timeline_coverage_score brain-score component (all
pages with a timeline entry, 0-15). Different numerators AND
denominators, indistinguishable in output.

Label-only fix, scoring unchanged:
- graph_coverage check: 'entity timeline coverage N%'
- brain_score breakdown: 'timeline density (all pages) N/15'
- get_health CLI: 'Timeline coverage (entity pages)' plus a new
  'Timeline density (all pages): N/15' line when the score is present

Adds test/doctor-timeline-metric-labels-2298.test.ts pinning the
denominator semantics, the rendered doctor messages, and the CLI
guard matrix (fails on master, passes here).

Takeover of #2761.
