Bradley Axen 30873ba46b docs(nest): replace commit attribution policy with the runtime facts (#8236)
## What

The nest `AGENTS.md` template
(`desktop/src-tauri/src/managed_agents/nest_agents.md`) ships to every
Buzz user's agents. Its "Git Commit Attribution" section is cut from a
general attribution policy (separate claims, author "per applicable
policy", hypothetical repos that require a human author, "stop and ask")
down to what the runtime actually does:

- `buzz-acp` sets a default git identity and signing. Agents use it, but
change the author when a repository or their human needs a different
one. The operator can opt out with `BUZZ_GIT_IDENTITY=user`.
- Credit the other party with `Co-authored-by`: the human you work for
when you commit as yourself, or yourself when you commit as them.
- Follow each repository's own `AGENTS.md` for sign-off (DCO) and other
attribution rules.

The buzz-acp base prompt gets the same co-author default.
`NEST_AGENTS_VERSION` goes from 6 to 7 so existing nests refresh, and
the template test now asserts the new content.

## Why

Agents read the old section as a puzzle to solve on every commit. They
looked for an applicable policy, wondered whether the human should be
the author, and stalled. DCO and sign-off rules are per-repository and
already live in each repo's own `AGENTS.md` (this repo says `git commit
-s`), so they don't belong in a template that every OSS user's agents
read.

Companion buzz-app change: block/buzz-app#833.

## Validation

`cargo test --lib managed_agents::nest` in `desktop/src-tauri`: 55
passed, including the legacy-attribution upgrade test.

I pushed with `--no-verify`: the change is Markdown plus a version
constant and a test, and the nest tests above are the relevant suite. CI
runs the full set.
