Brooklyn Nicholson 728767e910 feat(tui): hide the activity panel by default
The activity panel (gateway hints, terminal-parity nudges, background
notifications) is noise for the typical day-to-day user, who only cares
about thinking + tools + streamed content.  Make `hidden` the built-in
default for that section so users land on the quiet mode out of the box.

Tool failures still render inline on the failing tool row, so this
default suppresses the noise feed without losing the signal.

Opt back in with `display.sections.activity: collapsed` (chevron) or
`expanded` (always open) in `~/.hermes/config.yaml`, or live with
`/details activity collapsed`.

Implementation: SECTION_DEFAULTS in domain/details.ts, applied as the
fallback in `sectionMode()` between the explicit override and the
global details_mode.  Existing `display.sections.activity` overrides
take precedence — no migration needed for users who already set it.
