jeremy 9cafa1de96 clean_target: add --sweep N mode to prune stale artifact generations
target/ had grown to 201 GiB, dominated by orphaned old dep generations
(cargo never garbage-collects deps/): 39 GiB in debug and 63 GiB in
selfdev were >3d-old superseded generations. --sweep N keeps the newest
artifact per (crate, extension) and deletes older generations whose
mtime exceeds N days, plus incremental session dirs idle past N days.
Dry-run by default; honors the existing active-process guard.

Validated in a sandbox target dir: swept only superseded generations,
warm rebuild stayed a no-op, and the built binary still ran.

# Safely reclaim disk space from the Cargo target directory.
#
# This is designed to be safe to run even while other builds are in progress on
# this machine (e.g. parallel self-dev agents). It will:
# - never touch a target/<profile> dir that has an active rustc/cargo process
# or that was written to within a recent activity window
# - by default only remove cross-compile / compat caches and obviously stale
# profile dirs, plus run `cargo clean` on stale profiles
#
# Usage:
# scripts/clean_target.sh # dry-run: report what would be freed
# scripts/clean_target.sh --apply # actually delete safe items
# scripts/clean_target.sh --sweep 7 # also sweep stale artifact generations
# # older than 7 days (keeps the newest
# # generation per crate, so the warm
# # cache survives; dry-run w/o --apply)
# scripts/clean_target.sh --apply --aggressive # cargo clean stale profiles
#
# Env:
# JCODE_CLEAN_ACTIVE_WINDOW_MIN activity window in minutes (default 20)
