Simplify recently changed code and open low-risk refactor pull requests

This entry turns GitHub Next's Code Simplifier workflow into a narrow cleanup agent. The agent inspects code changed in the last day, proposes behavior-preserving simplifications, runs validation, and opens small refactor pull requests instead of attempting broad rewrites.
