Bohan Jiang f1082b10a4 feat(cli): add --assignee-id / --to-id / --user-id for unambiguous targeting (#2114)
* feat(cli): add --assignee-id / --to-id / --user-id for unambiguous targeting

`multica issue {create,update,list}`, `issue assign`, and `issue subscriber
{add,remove}` accepted only fuzzy name matching, which fails in workspaces
where one user's name is a substring of another (e.g. agent "J" vs
"Cursor - J" / member "Jiayuan"). #1642 added UUID acceptance through the
existing flags, but there was still no explicit path that signals "this is a
UUID, not a name" — important for scripts that read IDs from
`multica workspace members --output json`.

Adds an `-id`-suffixed counterpart for every assignee-taking flag:

- `issue list`     : --assignee-id
- `issue create`   : --assignee-id
- `issue update`   : --assignee-id
- `issue assign`   : --to-id
- `issue subscriber {add,remove}` : --user-id

The new flags route through `resolveAssigneeByID`, a strict resolver that
requires a canonical UUID and fails with a clear error when the entity is
not in the workspace (no name fallback). A shared `pickAssigneeFromFlags`
helper enforces mutual exclusion between the name and id flags so a script
that accidentally sets both never silently applies one over the other.

Refs MUL-1254.

* fix(cli): detect assignee flag presence via Changed, not value-emptiness

`pickAssigneeFromFlags` previously branched on `flag value != ""`, so
explicitly passing an empty UUID silently routed through the "no flag set"
path:

  multica issue list --assignee-id ""        # listed every issue
  multica issue create --assignee-id ""      # created an unassigned issue
  multica issue subscriber add --user-id ""  # subscribed the caller

This is exactly the failure mode the strict-UUID flag was added to prevent —
a script interpolating `--assignee-id "$MAYBE_UUID"` against a missing env
var should fail loudly, not silently degrade to a different operation.

Switch the picker (and the assign-command top-level guard) to use
`Flags().Changed`, so an explicit empty value reaches `resolveAssigneeByID`
/ `resolveAssignee` and surfaces a clear "expected a canonical UUID" /
"no member or agent found matching" error.

* docs(cli): cover --assignee-id / --to-id in user docs and quick-create prompt

Follow-up to the --*-id flag rollout: surface the new flags everywhere the
old ones are documented so users (and agents) can discover them.

- assigning-issues.{mdx,zh.mdx}: the page explicitly calls out the
  duplicate-name footgun ("first one listed wins, so rename before
  assigning") — replace that workaround with a --to-id <uuid> example
- cloud-quickstart.{mdx,zh.mdx}: add a --to-id hint after the substring-
  match callout so first-time users learn about the strict path
- internal/daemon/prompt.go (quick-create injected prompt):
  - default-to-self: pass --assignee-id <task.Agent.ID> instead of
    --assignee <name>; the picker agent's UUID is already in scope and
    UUID matching is unambiguous in workspaces with overlapping agent
    names (J / Cursor - J / Pi - J etc.)
  - user-named: tell the agent to prefer --assignee-id <uuid> using the
    user_id/id from the JSON it already fetched; --assignee <name> stays
    a fallback for unambiguous workspaces
