Subject: [PATCH] Implement IPC call for genetic melody generation

- Added `generate_genetic` method to `DawIPC` in `intlib/ipc/daw.py` to send "genetic" command with generations and population.
- Updated `GeneratorPanel` in `intui/widgets/generators.py` to call the IPC method when "Evolve Melody" is clicked.
- Verified with mock test.
