The GRAPHIFY_OUT override (custom output-dir name / absolute path, #686) was only
respected by some readers. `graphify extract` and several commands hardcoded the
literal "graphify-out", so `GRAPHIFY_OUT=custom-out graphify extract` still wrote
to graphify-out/ and downstream query/serve/update looked in the wrong place.
Resolve the output-dir name through graphify.paths everywhere it matters:
- new graphify.paths.out_path()/default_graph_json() helpers
- __main__: extract write dir, cluster-only/label, query/affected/benchmark
defaults, save-result --memory-dir, uninstall --purge, cache-check
- detect: _MANIFEST_PATH, memory/ + converted/ dirs, and the scan-exclude (a
renamed output dir is no longer re-ingested as source input)
- transcribe._TRANSCRIPTS_DIR; build_merge/serve/benchmark/prs graph-path defaults
Default behaviour is unchanged: with no env var everything still uses graphify-out/.
Verified end-to-end (extract -> cluster-only -> query under GRAPHIFY_OUT=custom-out
writes/reads custom-out/, no stray graphify-out/) and added a CLI regression test.
