docs(voyage): correct now-false harness-constraint claims (W0/CC-01)

Browse source 
8 sites across 3 orchestrator agents + trekbrief/trekplan/trekresearch asserted 'the harness does not expose the Agent tool to sub-agents' as present fact -- the rationale for the v2.4.0 inline migration. CC 2.1.172 (verified) lets sub-agents spawn sub-agents up to 5 levels deep, so the claim is false. Replaced each with verified history (pre-2.1.172) + current fact + forward pointer to the decision matrix (W1/CC-26). Decision-neutral: states fact without pre-empting the orchestration redesign. CHANGELOG history left untouched. Tests 578/0/2; claude plugin validate passes.

> **Why foreground?** As of v2.4.0 the research-orchestrator is no longer
> spawned as a background agent. The Claude Code harness does not expose the
> Agent tool to sub-agents, so an orchestrator launched with
> `run_in_background: true` cannot spawn the documented research swarm
> (`docs-researcher`, `community-researcher`, etc.) and silently degrades to
> single-context reasoning without WebSearch / Tavily / WebFetch / Gemini.
> Running the phases inline in main context keeps the swarm intact. Use
> `claude -p` in a separate terminal window for long-running headless work.
> **Why foreground (for now)?** The research-orchestrator was moved out of
