Standardises on AGENTS.md. Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md and not AGENTS.md, so a straight rename would have silently stopped project instructions loading; the documented fix is a one-line CLAUDE.md importing AGENTS.md with the @ syntax, which is what lands here.

Self-references updated so the file no longer names itself incorrectly.

Standardises on AGENTS.md. Claude Code reads CLAUDE.md and not AGENTS.md, so a
straight rename would have silently stopped project instructions loading; the
documented fix is a one-line CLAUDE.md importing AGENTS.md with the @ syntax,
which is what lands here. The guide already said a second copy is a second
source of truth, so the shim is an import rather than a duplicate, and now says
so.

References updated across README, CONTRIBUTING, AUDIT, .gitignore, docs/index.html
and the Java/JS comments that cited the old filename, so nothing points at a file
that no longer exists.
