Startup previously treated the first CLI response as sufficient readiness and could return unavailable during a transient NoState. This change retries backend readiness within a single monotonic 30-second phase and bounds every query by the remaining time and three seconds.

Closes #25.

• Retry NoState/Starting and transient query errors; do not require an early Self.ID.
• Distinguish final outcomes: ready0, login10, readiness deadline11, no-valid-query12, machine approval13. Existing authenticated-state-loss protection and explicit-only login/auth remain.
• Skip the old 20-second status probe for an already identified daemon; cap new-launch probes at three seconds. Component initialization and explicit authentication retain separate bounds.
• Update English/Korean exit-code and timeout guidance.

Validation: nine new isolated readiness tests plus eight existing authentication tests passed on Python3.13; Bash syntax and ShellCheck passed. Tests cover delayed transitions, remaining-budget query timeout, authentication/approval, malformed replies, redaction and retained identity/missing-state refusal. Full Linux CI passed on Python3.11/3.13; the nine new readiness checks also passed on actual Python3.8. No live deployment or watchdog change.

Readiness expiry keeps exit11 once a valid transient backend state has been observed; exit12 means no valid state was obtained, avoiding boundary-dependent reclassification from a final short query timeout.

Automatic-review follow-up (6e0a0dd): wait for a valid local API response before explicit login/auth without requiring Running; inspect backend after failed/timed-out up; skip repeated login/key input for pending approval. Thirteen auth checks and nine readiness checks passed locally; full Linux CI passed 171 tests on each of Python 3.11/3.13. Failed up with a Running backend retains its failure status.
