Orphan vs Destroy

destroy deletes the AWS resources and the state record; orphan deletes only the state record (AWS resources stay intact, just no longer tracked by cdkd). Mirrors aws-cdk-cli's cdk orphan.

Two orphan variants at different granularities:

• cdkd orphan <constructPath>... — synth-driven, per-resource. Rewrites every sibling reference (Ref / Fn::GetAtt / Fn::Sub / dependencies) so the next deploy doesn't re-create the orphan.
• cdkd state orphan <stack>... — state-driven, whole-stack. Removes the entire state record. Works without the CDK app.

Both cdkd destroy (synth-driven) and cdkd state destroy (state-driven, no synth) delete AWS resources + state.
