alias test via write bot

Add descriptive, user-friendly aliases for the existing API routes to
improve gitops-agent API discoverability:

  GET  /api/baseline     → /api/base
  GET  /api/versions     → /api/ver
  GET  /api/runtime-status → /api/run
  GET  /api/patches      → /api/patch
  POST /api/create-patch  → /api/patch
  GET  /api/branches     → /api/branch
  POST /api/create-branch → /api/branch
  POST /api/commit-file   → /api/file
  POST /api/create-tag    → /api/tag

All aliases wire through the same handler functions, tested live.
