Teknium bf53915331 docs: Bot Mode guide — Create-on picker, cross-machine mentions + group chats
Community asks (Discord, Aug 17): unclear what happens across cloud vs
desktop, whether every bot replies in group chats, and how to persist
connections to multiple gateways.

Extends the Bot Mode user-guide page (landed on main today) with the new
cross-connection features:

- "Create on" picker: creating an agent on another registered machine, with
  the remote-target caveats (clone source, staged capability checklists,
  draft discard).
- Group chats: explicit "not every bot replies" explanation of the
  round-robin/pass model, and rooms spanning machines with device badges.
- @mentions across machines via the Connections registry (no gateway switch).
- Bots-across-machines section: persistent SSH inventory, last-known rows,
  and the stay-in-your-chat interaction model; cloud+desktop recipe.
- desktop.md Bot Mode section links to the full guide; multi-connection
  page's Bot Mode reference points at the docs page instead of the old
  standalone repo.
