Brennan Benson d758e3b214 docs(ssh): state the SSH execution boundary and pin the liveness vocabulary
Nothing under docs/ described how work splits between the client and an SSH
host, so agents and humans inferred it from error strings and got it wrong:
loss of contact was repeatedly reported as process death, which orphaned live
remote agents and cold-started duplicates over the same worktree.

Pins the vocabulary to the incumbent live/unverifiable/exited verdict from
unstopped-pty-verification so no synonym is introduced, records the one real
discriminator (all of a host's terminals drop together on link loss; one alone
means process exit), and lists the outstanding gaps with citations.

Tracked via the docs allow-list and linked from AGENTS.md, per the convention
in .gitignore.
