Release v0.8.0: devcontainer status, tree view, gold tmux tabs

- Add wl dc --status for paired devcontainer connection status
- Add tree view in wl start matching wl ps for visual continuity
- Show forwardPorts from devcontainer.json in status displays
- Gold tmux tabs for [dc] devcontainer sessions
- Fix tmux status scripts using full $HOME/bin/ paths
- Fix JSONC parsing for devcontainer.json with // comments
- Define icon variables (ICON_RUNNING, ICON_STOPPED, etc.) in lib/style.sh
- ICON_NO_SSHD includes trailing space (⚠ is a wide character)
- tmux status: show ⚡dc when connected, ⚠ dc when unreachable

+## [0.8.0] - 2026-01-10
+
+### Added
+
+- **`wl dc --status`**: Check paired devcontainer connection status at a glance
+- **Tree view in `wl start`**: Shows container status matching `wl ps` for visual continuity
+- **Devcontainer ports display**: Shows `forwardPorts` in `wl start` and `wl dc --status`
+- **Gold tmux tabs for devcontainer sessions**: `[dc]` windows clearly distinguished from regular tabs
+
+### Changed
+
+- **`wl start` cleaner output**: Removed banner, redundant path info; shows activity first
+- **`wl doctor --fix` auto-rebuild**: Rebuilds container after pulling new image (if no tmux session attached)
+- **tmux status bar**: `⚡dc` when connected, `⚠ dc` when devcontainer exists but unreachable
+- **tmux scripts use full paths**: Fixes status bar not displaying on some systems
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **tmux status scripts**: Now work reliably (use `$HOME/bin/` paths instead of relying on PATH)
+- **JSONC parsing**: Port extraction handles `//` comments in devcontainer.json
