Bohan Jiang 334d9cdd02 fix(squad): skip leader when a member @mentions anyone (MUL-2170) (#2569)
* fix(squad): skip leader on comment when a member @mentions any agent (MUL-2170)

When a human commenter routes an issue directly at a specific agent via
[@Name](mention://agent/<id>), the squad leader was still being woken up
to evaluate the same comment. The leader's only real options were to
re-delegate to the agent the member already named or to record
no_action — both of which produce queue noise without changing the
outcome.

This skips the leader-enqueue path entirely when:
  - the assignee is a squad,
  - the comment author is a member, AND
  - the comment body contains at least one agent mention.

Agent-authored comments are intentionally exempt: when an agent posts
an update that @mentions another agent, the leader still needs to
coordinate the thread. The existing leader-self-trigger guard is
preserved. Only the current comment's body is inspected — parent
(thread root) mentions are not inherited here.

Tests cover the helper (mentions parsing) plus the integration matrix:
member plain / member @member / member @non-leader-agent /
member @leader / agent @agent / leader-self.

* test(squad): exercise full CreateComment path for leader-skip rule (MUL-2170)

Adds an integration test that drives the HTTP-layer CreateComment handler
(not just the helper) to lock the call-site wiring: a member top-level
comment with an @agent skips the squad leader, and a subsequent plain
reply in the same thread DOES wake the leader — the parent's @agent
mention must not be inherited into the leader-skip decision.

Picks up a non-blocking review note on PR #2569.

* fix(squad): skip leader on any explicit member mention, not only @agent (MUL-2170)

Broaden the leader-skip rule for squad-assigned issues: a member comment
that explicitly @mentions anyone — @agent, @member, @squad, or @all —
counts as deliberate routing and the squad leader stays out. Issue
cross-references (mention://issue/...) are not routing and still trigger
the leader as before.

Per Bohan's follow-up on MUL-2170 — @member should suppress the leader
for the same reason @agent does: the human has already pointed at a
specific recipient, so a leader turn would just be observation noise.

Helper renamed commentMentionsAnyAgent → commentMentionsAnyone with
explicit handling of all four routing mention types. Existing call-site
wiring (current-comment-only, agent-author exemption, leader self-trigger
guard) is unchanged.

Tests updated and extended to cover the full routing matrix:
@member / @squad / @all / @issue (cross-ref) plus the @agent variants
already covered.
