refactor(realism): single source of truth for persona→login

decnet/realism/naming._home and decnet/canary/cultivator._persona_login
both normalised "John Smith"→"johnsmith" with identical logic. Lift
to decnet.realism.personas.login_for(persona) and have both consumers
import it. Drift between the two would have left canary placement and
realism path naming using different login derivations.
