Greg DeYoung 5eb158e317 docs(hermes-agent skill): document project context files and their discovery rules
Adds a new 'Project Context Files' section to the hermes-agent skill
explaining the priority order and discovery rules for .hermes.md,
AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and .cursorrules. Specifically clarifies:

- .hermes.md walks parents up to the git root (good for monorepos)
- AGENTS.md / agents.md is cwd-only (portable to other agents)
- The 20K cap and head+tail truncation strategy
- The threat-pattern scanner behavior (blocks content, not file)
- What --ignore-rules actually skips (everything)

Also fixes an inaccurate docstring in agent/agent_init.py for
skip_context_files — the previous text only mentioned SOUL.md,
AGENTS.md, and .cursorrules, but the actual behavior (per
build_context_files_prompt and the --ignore-rules CLI flag) skips
all of them plus .hermes.md and CLAUDE.md.
