Hermes Agent 9cd7296849 refactor(gateway): gate loop-liveness watchdog via config.yaml, drop HERMES_* env knobs
Follow-up to the salvaged #69164 commits: policy forbids introducing new
HERMES_* environment variables, so the four watchdog env knobs
(HERMES_GATEWAY_LOOP_WATCHDOG / _INTERVAL / _TIMEOUT / _STRIKES) are
replaced with a single config.yaml boolean:

  gateway:
    loop_watchdog: true   # default; false disables both guards

- gateway/config.py: new GatewayConfig.loop_watchdog field (default True),
  parsed from top-level or nested gateway: form, round-trips via
  to_dict/from_dict.
- gateway/run.py: _start_loop_liveness_guards() checks config.loop_watchdog
  before arming the floor timer + watchdog (getattr-guarded for bare
  object.__new__ runners).
- gateway/shutdown_watchdog.py: start_loop_liveness_watchdog() no longer
  reads the environment; probe interval/timeout/strikes are module
  constants (30s/10s/3 — ~90s to restart, matching the systemd watchdog
  layer's posture).
- hermes_cli/config.py: documented gateway.loop_watchdog default so
  'hermes config set gateway.loop_watchdog false' validates.
- tests: env-knob tests replaced with config-gate + round-trip tests;
  the final-strike boundary test injects its probe via max_strikes
  directly instead of patching the removed env helper.
