Closes #6. Imperative API for external control of useFormDraft instances —
header save buttons outside the form, nav guards (beforeunload), auto-discard
timers, dev-tools panels.

  const handle = getFormDraft<MyFormValues>('profile-form');
  if (handle?.getPendingChanges()) { /* warn user */ }
  await handle?.save();
  handle?.discard();

  // As a submit handler from a button outside the form:
  const submit = handle?.submit(async (v) => api.update(v));
  await submit?.();

Returns undefined when no instance with that key is currently mounted. The
handle's getters always return CURRENT state (read via refs on every call);
for reactive subscriptions inside a component use useFormDraftStatus(key).

## How it works

- RegistryEntry extended with action refs (saveRef/discardRef/submitRef) and
  state refs (valuesRef/pendingChangesRef/errorRef/lastSavedAtRef). Hook
  syncs the refs each render so external callers always see the latest
  closures even when key/storage/defaultValues change.
- Registry rewritten as a per-key STACK (Map<string, RegistryEntry[]>), so
  two instances sharing a key co-exist correctly: most-recently-mounted
  wins for getDraft, and when it unmounts the previous instance becomes
  active again automatically.
- Status machine transitions route through registry.notifySubscribers so
  useFormDraftStatus subscribers see updates regardless of which entry on
  the stack is active.
- Registration is once per mount; lastSavedAt changes notify subscribers
  without an unregister→register pair (which previously flickered status
  pills through DEFAULT_SNAPSHOT).

## Vetting

4 rounds of code review + adversarial audit each in parallel. Real bugs
caught:

  R1 valuesRef.current was set in useEffect while other snapshot refs were
     set during render → moved to render so external imperative reads see
     committed values immediately.
  R1 duplicate-key registration: second mount overwrote first → identity-
     guarded delete first attempt.
  R2 HIGH: identity-guard only half-fix — when B unmounts before A, A
     became invisible despite being alive. Replaced single-slot map with
     a refcount stack. B unmount leaves A on top.
  R2 MEDIUM: useFormDraftStatus flickered through 'idle' on every
     successful save because the registry effect re-ran on lastSavedAt
     change, momentarily emptying the entry. Split into register-once
     plus a separate notifySubscribers effect; useFormDraftStatus reads
     lastSavedAtRef directly.
  R2 LOW: subscribers Map never cleared empty Sets — leak under per-route
     dynamic keys. Cleanup on last unsubscribe.
  R3 MEDIUM: useFormDraftStatus subscribed to entry.statusMachine at
     subscribe-time, so after a stack swap (B mounts on top of A), B's
     status transitions didn't fire observer re-renders. Route all
     statusMachine transitions through notifySubscribers(key);
     useFormDraftStatus subscribes via registry channel only.
  R4 hoisted excludeFieldsRef above the restore effect for correct
     declaration order (worked at runtime but read wrong).

## Tests

11 unit tests in getFormDraft.test.tsx covering: undefined-when-unmounted,
defined-after-mount, getters reflect current state, external save/discard/
submit, ref-of-callback stability across defaults change, duplicate-key
stack swap, useFormDraftStatus no-flicker, and the R3 active-entry
subscription regression. 183 tests total. Bundle 5.42 KB brotli.

+## External control (`getFormDraft`)
+
+Sometimes the save/discard buttons live outside the form — a modal's header bar, a nav guard, a "discard after timeout" hook. `getFormDraft` looks up a mounted instance by its `key` and returns an imperative handle:
+
+```tsx
+import { getFormDraft } from 'formdraft';
+
+// Outside React (route guard, beforeunload listener, dev tools, etc.)
+const handle = getFormDraft<MyFormValues>('profile-form');
+if (handle?.getPendingChanges()) {
+  // warn the user they have unsaved changes
+}
+await handle?.save();
+handle?.discard();
+
+// As a submit handler from a header button:
+const submit = handle?.submit(async (values) => {
+  await api.update(values);
+});
+await submit?.();
+```
+
+Returns `undefined` when no instance with that key is currently mounted. The handle's getters always return the **current** state, not a snapshot from when you called `getFormDraft`. For reactive subscription inside a component, use `useFormDraftStatus(key)` instead.
+
