feat(agent-cards): let a lich worker open cards of its own - #58

Conversation
lich now sets LICH_SUBAGENT_DEPTH on every Claude Code session it starts (0 at the top, n for a worker n --subagent levels down) and keeps LICH_SUBAGENT_CARDS=off only for the user's setting and for a worker at its own depth limit. - worker-answer: a session is a worker when LICH_SUBAGENT_DEPTH is an integer above 0; without the variable, LICH_SUBAGENT_CARDS=off still marks one, for an older lich. - agent-cards: cards off in a worker (depth above 0) runs the native agent with a toast saying why; a top-level session stays silent. The subagent/ branch gate applies only without the depth variable, so a worker below lich's limit opens cards from an isolated worktree too. No existing test changed; new ones cover the depth rules and the legacy fallbacks.
… worker native The text named the depth limit, but lich also keeps a worker native when the user turned subagent cards off. The test pins the toast's wording, which is what changed.

NestedSubagentCardsRelease = "0.19.0", the contract minor #57 opened for compacting. This PR has to be in 0.19.0: a 0.19.0 without it would get nested cards switched on by that lich and never answer for the workers that open them. No version bumped here.Tests
