feat(shared): add Hermes as a built-in terminal agent (#6766)

* feat(shared): add Hermes as a built-in terminal agent

Adds Nous Research's Hermes Agent to BUILTIN_TERMINAL_AGENTS, with light/dark preset icons, README row, docs bullet, and marketing demo entry. Builds on #5802; hermes chat has no positional prompt, so prompt launches run -q and continue interactively with -c (kimi pattern); resume is -r <session>.
