bb3747186e feat: let agents steer running turns they could start (MUL-8285) (#9630)
* feat(server): let agents steer running turns they could start (MUL-8285)

An agent comment can now be added to another agent's running turn, the way
a member steers from the composer: exactly when the comment could start that
agent (canInvokeAgent, judged on the human at the top of the chain), never
its own turn.

- steer_task_ids now work for agent authors; steer: true asks the server to
  add the comment to the current running turn of every recipient without a
  named turn.
- Agent-authored bindings are capped per turn (10) and per authoring agent
  (3). The task row is locked in its own statement before the bind, so the
  cap count sees what an earlier lock holder committed.
- An agent comment that steered a turn but was never read is replayed on
  completion like the mention it replaced. Member receipts keep today's
  behaviour (the member sees the failure and can retry or resend).
- The supplement claim returns author_type and the agent's name. A daemon
  that does not send task-supplement-author-v1 gets the attribution in the
  content, so an agent message never reads as a human's.
- can_supplement on task-runs is computed for an agent caller by the same
  rule.

* feat(daemon): present an agent's added message as an agent's (MUL-8285)

Claims send the task-supplement-author-v1 capability and render agent
messages as peer input that cannot replace the objective or override humans.

* feat(cli): add --steer and --steer-active to issue comment add (MUL-8285)

Docs: CLI help, CLI_AND_DAEMON.md, the CLI docs in every locale, the squad
leader briefing, and a steering section in the multica-platform mentions
reference.

* fix: close the review gaps in agent steering (MUL-8285)

- Replay an unread agent steer even when it reached the turn through an
  implicit route (a worker's reply to its leader): a comment bound to the
  completing run counts as planned input for the replay filter.
- Drop the receipt of an agent steer once completion has replayed it, so no
  client (old or new) offers to resend what the follow-up already handles.
- Never hand an agent's message to a daemon without
  task-supplement-author-v1: it would frame it as a human's. The message
  stays pending, settles when the turn ends, and is replayed as a mention.
- Tell a squad leader about --steer only when its daemon advertises
  cli-comment-steer-v1, since an older CLI rejects the flag; the skill
  reference says to drop the flag on 'unknown flag'.
