mcp: remove the restart/kill/start/update/get_logs agent verbs

Container lifecycle from inside an agent goes away: an agent no longer
starts, stops, restarts or rebuilds a container in its subtree, and no
longer reads another container's journal. Those are operator actions —
the dashboard and hivectl keep their own paths to the same job-queue
and hive-priv plumbing, which is why none of that machinery is removed
here, only the five MCP verbs and what they alone reached.

What went with them: the `Request` variants and `Response::Logs` on the
agent socket, the five tool definitions and their arg structs, the four
lifecycle handlers plus `handle_get_logs`, and `require_descendant` —
the topology guard those five were the only remaining callers of.
`ToolGroup::Diagnostics` goes too: `get_logs` was its only tool, so it
would otherwise be a grantable group that grants nothing. `lifecycle`
stays, now carrying `list_containers` alone.

An agent that gets a `needs_update` or `container_crash` helper event
has no remedy of its own left, so the system prompt and the docs now
send it to the operator instead of to a tool that no longer exists.
