Part of the coilysiren/inbox#365 teardown, which deletes .ward/ward.yaml from repos.

Moves agent.workflow into AGENTS.md frontmatter:

---
ward:
  workflow: merge-remote-main
---

The lane is doctrine about how this repo is worked, so it belongs beside the doctrine rather than in ward's config. Namespaced under ward: so it does not collide with harness-level frontmatter keys.

Behavior is unchanged

merge-remote-main is exactly ward's compiled default (workflowDirectToMain, cmd/ward/agent_workflow.go:21). Removing the declaration falls back to the same value, so this is a no-op for dispatch whether or not ward#1661 has landed.

Ward does not read the new location yet. That is tracked at coilyco-flight-deck/ward#1661.

Mechanically checked

The edit refuses to run unless the workflow key is found and removed, the resulting YAML re-parses, commands and catalog are byte-identical afterward, and the new AGENTS.md stays under the 290-line / 26400-char documentation-layout caps counting the frontmatter itself. The agent: block is dropped only when workflow was its sole key.

Moves agent.workflow out of .ward/ward.yaml, part of deleting that file
(coilysiren/inbox#365). The lane is doctrine about how this repo is worked,
so it belongs beside the doctrine rather than in ward's config.

Ward does not read the new location yet (ward#1661). It resolves the lane
from ward.yaml and falls back to merge-remote-main when absent.
