feat(prompt): point agent at hermes-agent skill + docs site for Hermes questions (#16535)

Browse source 
Adds a short always-on pointer to the system prompt: when the user asks
about configuring, setting up, troubleshooting, or using Hermes Agent
itself, load the hermes-agent skill via skill_view(name='hermes-agent')
and fall back to https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs via
web_extract. Keeps sessions without skill_view loaded useful too — the
docs URL + web_extract is enough to answer most questions.

The guidance is appended right after DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY (or SOUL.md)
so it ships regardless of which toolset profile is active. Footprint is
~560 chars, behind the existing prompt cache.
