phraser: the reminder summary is cut in runes, and silence is an error (V-620)

Three defects in internal/phraser, all of the shape "reports done when
nothing happened".

The reminder summary was cut in bytes: `len(s) > 60` and `s[:57]`, in two
copies (Stub.PhraseReminder and LLMPhraser.PhraseReminder). On Russian a
letter is two bytes, so the cut fell at about 28 letters instead of 60 and
landed inside a letter about half the time. Sendable.Summary is what
voicesink hands to piper and what the telegram sink posts, so the half rune
was spoken and sent. One rune-counting helper now, shared by both. The test
that covered this was ASCII, which is what let the arithmetic stand.

The evidence branch of PhraseQuery and the bare-prose tail of PhraseChat
both returned ("", nil) when the server answered and the model wrote no
tokens. The knowledge branch has guarded that with errEmptyResponse since it
was written; these two did not. The daemon's callers check for the empty
string and paper over it, so the visible cost was the eval, which scored a
silent model as bad phrasing rather than as a failure, and a log line that
never appeared.

Stub.PhraseReminder set no Mood. Its sibling PhraseNudge sets "neutral" and
says in a comment why: the Stub is a production fallback and owes the output
contract a value. The zero value is not one of the five moods.

No prompt and no spoken wording changed, so the phrasing eval is unmoved.
