mdc2122 03fbf6edbb fix(kanban): nudge workers that exit without complete/block
Add a bounded turn-end stop guard for kanban workers. When a worker
tries to exit with finish_reason=stop without having called
kanban_complete or kanban_block, inject up to two synthetic nudges
so the conversation loop continues instead of exiting cleanly (which
the dispatcher records as protocol_violation).

Mirrors the existing verify-on-stop pattern: same ephemeral scaffolding
flag (_kanban_stop_synthetic), same role-alternation contract, same
_pending_verification_response fallback for budget exhaustion.

Disabled by default (gated on HERMES_KANBAN_TASK env var set by the
dispatcher); kill switch via HERMES_KANBAN_STOP_NUDGE=0.

Salvaged from #62262 by @mdc2122. The original branch was 272 commits
behind main with ~538 files of stale-base reversions; this salvage
applies only the 4 substantive files (agent/kanban_stop.py,
conversation_loop.py insertion, run_agent.py _EPHEMERAL_SCAFFOLDING_FLAGS,
tests/agent/test_kanban_stop.py).
