Make lab service hero_collab --start bring collab up in zero-config local-dev mode, matching the other Hero apps (router, no proxy):

service.toml (server + admin): COLLAB_AUTH_MODE default proxy → dev. lab forwards declared env defaults into the hero_proc action env, so a bare lab service hero_collab --start now starts in dev. Production MUST override to proxy (operator env / hero_proc template); the compiled binary default stays proxy, so any path ignoring service.toml is fail-safe.
server: auto-seed demo users when auth_mode == Dev (not only via the --seed-dev-users flag, which lab can't pass). Idempotent (no-op on non-empty DB), dev-gated (never in proxy mode), safe across restarts.

Verified: lab service hero_collab --start (no override) → both binaries COLLAB_AUTH_MODE=dev, users Alice/Bob/Carol/Dave auto-seeded, browser works via hero_router :9988 with no auth errors.

Will cherry-pick to main after merge (per the main = stable-snapshot policy; service/lab default-start changes land on development first).

feat(collab): default to dev mode + auto-seed demo users for lab start 4d0e1d0794

Make `lab service hero_collab --start` bring collab up in the zero-config
local-dev mode — matching how the other Hero apps run locally behind
hero_router (no hero_proxy needed):

- service.toml (server + admin): COLLAB_AUTH_MODE default `proxy` → `dev`.
  lab forwards declared [[env]] defaults into the hero_proc action env, so
  a bare `lab service hero_collab --start` now starts in dev mode. Operators
  / hero_proc templates MUST override to `proxy` in production; the compiled
  binary default stays `proxy`, so any path that ignores service.toml is
  fail-safe.
- server: auto-seed demo users (Alice/Bob/Carol/Dave + workspace/channel)
  whenever auth_mode == Dev, not only on the explicit --seed-dev-users flag
  (which lab cannot pass). The seed is idempotent (no-op on a non-empty DB)
  and dev-gated, so it never runs in proxy mode and is safe across restarts.

Verified: `lab service hero_collab --start` (no env override) → both
binaries COLLAB_AUTH_MODE=dev, users auto-seeded, browser works via
hero_router :9988 with no auth errors.
