Subject: Change default root directory to use .demon subdirectory
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Modified find_git_root() to create and return <git_root>/.demon instead of <git_root>
- Auto-creates .demon directory if it doesn't exist
- Added proper error handling for edge cases (file vs directory conflicts, permissions)
- Maintains backward compatibility with explicit --root-dir flag
- Added comprehensive test to verify new default behavior
- Fixed test argument ordering for test_list_empty

Files are now organized as:
- Before: /project/daemon.pid, /project/daemon.stdout, /project/daemon.stderr
- After: /project/.demon/daemon.pid, /project/.demon/daemon.stdout, /project/.demon/daemon.stderr
