refactor(codex): drop the .codex/agents sidecar; rely on nested skill agents (#173)

Codex auto-discovers subagents bundled inside an installed skill's own
agents/ folder, so the separate .codex/agents/*.toml sidecar was redundant.

- cli: remove installCodexAgents/isCodexLikely and their install/update calls
- context.mjs: remove the CODEX_AGENT_MISSING self-heal directive
- build: drop codex agentFormat so no top-level .codex/agents is emitted; the
  nested in-skill .toml bundling is the whole delivery
- remove the tracked .codex/agents/*.toml and the gitignore exception
- docs + build.test.js updated for the nested layout
- CLI patch version bump; skill version unchanged

// ─── Codex subagent self-heal ───────────────────────────────────────────────
// Codex reads custom subagents from .codex/agents/*.toml, a sibling of the
// skill dir that skill installers (notably `npx skills add`) don't carry. The
// build bundles the .toml inside the Codex skill variants, so when this module
// runs under a Codex install and the project is missing the subagent, point the
// agent at the bundled copy. Self-resolves the moment the file is copied.
