revert(prompts): restore upstream heartbeat prompts, keep targetRoom param

Browse Source 
Reverts Ani-specific personalizations (first-person voice, "Casey",
"Cogito ergo sum") from the default heartbeat prompt. These belong
in the user's promptFile, not upstream source.

Adds targetRoom parameter to buildHeartbeatPrompt and
buildCustomHeartbeatPrompt so the agent knows which room to
message into.
