Enhances lifecycle communication with detailed receipts

Replaces simple string messages sent from the Brain with a structured `LifecycleReceipt` object.

This receipt provides comprehensive feedback, including the original command, a specific response status (e.g., `Ok`, `Refused`), and the resulting `LifeState`. This change improves the clarity, type safety, and debuggability of inter-thread communication between the main God thread and the Brain.
