Add a monocle algorithm — every pane fullscreen, focus cycles between them. dwm's monocle layout.

Scope

New file scripts/algorithms/monocle.sh
algo_relayout ensures the active pane is zoomed (via resize-pane -Z); if not currently zoomed, zoom it
algo_toggle matches master-stack's pattern
algo_promote / algo_resize_master / algo_sync_state NOT defined (no master, no width)

Acceptance criteria

scripts/algorithms/monocle.sh exists
Toggling @mosaic-enabled 1 with @mosaic-algorithm monocle zooms the focused pane
Splitting a pane on a monocle window: hook fires → relayout → new pane is the zoomed one
select-pane -t :.+ on a monocle window: focused pane changes, zoom follows (tmux's native zoom-on-active behavior + our relayout hook)
Test for the basic flow
README: add to the algorithms list

Open question

Does select-pane un-zoom by default? If so, relayout re-zooms — verify the UX feels right (might be a 1-frame flash). If it bugs, override algo_focus_next/prev to atomically un-zoom + re-zoom on the new active.
