Background and Context

The Issues module (lib/aethyr/core/issues.rb) and News trait (lib/aethyr/core/objects/traits/news.rb) each maintain their own independent GDBM stores, completely separate from the StorageMachine. These stores are not covered by the existing ES dual-write pattern and will remain as GDBM-only dependencies even after the main migration is complete. They must be migrated to ES before GDBM can be fully removed.

Additionally, bin/aethyr_setup only initializes GDBM stores and must be updated to support ES initialization.

Demonstrable Outcome

The Issues module, News trait, and setup utility all work through the ES path when enabled. Their independent GDBM stores are no longer the only persistence option.

Acceptance Criteria

Issues module uses ES aggregates/events when enabled
News trait uses ES aggregates/events when enabled
bin/aethyr_setup initializes ES alongside GDBM
require 'gdbm' removed from issues.rb and news.rb

These stores are not covered by the existing ES dual-write pattern and will remain as GDBM-only dependencies even after the main migration is complete. They must be migrated to ES before GDBM can be fully removed. Additionally, `bin/aethyr_setup` only initializes GDBM stores and must be updated to support ES initialization. ## Demonstrable Outcome The Issues module, News trait, and setup utility all work through the ES path when enabled.
