booth: actionable 'bring it online' instance modal (0.55.0)

- the instance-created modal was a terse field list; now it's a 2-step
  broker onboarding guide at the point of need:
  1. Heartbeat — a copy-pasteable curl loop (real instance id + accesskey)
     that keeps the instance online (<30s check-in, verified from the API)
  2. Relay — the broker WebSocket + note that the amerc webagent speaks it
- color-coded offline status, code block with copy button
- removes the supply-side last-mile guesswork for publishers
- verified end-to-end via the real publish flow (register → class → instance)
