2cdd7f2ff1 hive-agent: publish the agent terminal to the swarm queue
The harness has had its queue coordinates since the credential reached
the container, but nothing used them. This offers each terminal row
upward on `$SWARM.term.<hive>.<agent>`, so a swarm-level terminal can
render an agent without reaching into the hive that hosts it.

It publishes the same `TermMsg` the web UI is handed rather than a
second model of the same events, so a new tool or a reclassified event
changes both surfaces together. It subscribes to the event bus rather
than to the SSE handler: the handler classifies per connected browser,
so hanging this off it would mean an agent nobody is watching publishes
nothing. That also means its own long-lived `ClassifyCtx`, since a
publisher restarting its correlation state would lose the `tool_use` →
name mapping a `tool_result` needs to render.

The hive in the subject is derived from the queue client id, not from
the harness's hive display name. Those come from different sources with
no rule tying them together, and the responder builds its grant from the
client id — so deriving it from the display name yields a publish the
broker refuses, reaching an operator as a terminal that is merely empty.
The prefix and suffix that bracket the hive are the responder's flags,
which the agent is not told; it restates their defaults, and the symptom
of a deployment retuning one without changing this is every publish
refused rather than a wrong subject accepted.

Oversize rows degrade in the publisher. Exceeding `max_payload` is not a
truncation: the server refuses the message and closes the connection, so
an oversize publish costs the row, the connection, and the rows racing
behind it through the reconnect. The body is the only unbounded field —
summaries are already trimmed at classification — so it is the field
spent, and the row keeps its icon, level, summary and coalesce key. A
row that does not fit even then is logged and dropped rather than sent.
The limit is read off the connection, so `8388608` stays spelled once in
the queue's own module; size is measured by serializing, because JSON
escaping separates character count from wire length by an unbounded
factor on exactly the rows already near the limit.

Best-effort throughout: no queue, an unparseable client id and a failed
connect each disable the publisher with one log line, and a failed
publish loses its row and nothing else. The turn loop and the web UI
never block on the queue.

2989c5ccdb swarm: say "no queue coordinates", never "a hive with no queue"
The swarm always has exactly one queue; a hive can only lack its
address. Reworded every prose site this PR added that stated or
implied the opposite, to name what is actually absent (coordinates,
credential, or address) instead of the queue itself.

353cdd9264 swarm: carry the agent queue credential from the host into the harness
hive-c0re stats the two files `swarm-bao-queue-agent` lands and forwards
them into every agent container as systemd credentials, and the harness
resolves a `QueueConfig` out of them at boot. Nothing connects yet.

A credential and not a bind mount, and the mode is what forces it: the
secret is root:0600 and the harness runs as the unprivileged agent user,
so a bind would deliver a file that user cannot open. nspawn's
`--load-credential` is read by the container manager as root and
re-exposed under the consuming unit's own `User=`. hive-c0re never reads
the bytes either way, which is just as well — it runs as `hive-core`.

Absent files stay legal and become visible rather than silent: the
publisher lives on the authelia host and mints on its first boot, so
"nothing at that path" is the ordinary early state of a swarm. c0re
forwards nothing and logs why; the harness logs that it has no queue.

The client id comes out of the delivered file rather than being rebuilt
from `hiveName` in nix, which is the agreement `swarm-secret-client`
states. `QueueConfig::from_env` wants it as a value, so the harness reads
the file itself — assigning the variable instead would need
`std::env::set_var` in a process that has already spawned threads.
