Subject: [PATCH] feat: add /profile slash command to show active profile
 (#4027)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adds /profile to COMMAND_REGISTRY (Info category) with handlers in
both CLI and gateway. Shows the active profile name and home directory.

Works on all platforms — CLI, Telegram, Discord, Slack, etc.
Detects profile by checking if HERMES_HOME is under ~/.hermes/profiles/.
Shows 'default' when running without a profile.
