This fixes the director read-only surface cleanup path so a live session stops implying that /var/run/docker.sock exists when it does not yet. Fresh director surfaces still mount the socket, but already-running ones now tell the operator to restart warded for the next launch and use the brokered ward agent stop <owner/repo#N> cleanup path from the surface.

Updated the reap error, read-only surface doctrine, and operator docs to name the brokered fallback.
Added tests for the no-socket director surface case and the surfaced restart guidance.
Validation: ward exec build, TMPDIR=/tmp go test ./cmd/ward -run 'TestComposeContextReadOnlyBlock|TestAgentReapSweepReportsUnsupportedOnReadOnlyDirectorSurface', pre-commit run --all-files.

closes #1011
