Headless workers/stewards spawned without --prompt or --resume have no input source and exit immediately, producing the cryptic 'Session exited before init' error. Refuse the invocation with a clear message that names the cause and lists the three fixes (--prompt, --resume, --mode interactive). Refs stoneforge-ai#61.

Summary
sf agent start <id>for a worker defaults to headless mode, which feeds prompts via stdin. Without--promptor--resumethe spawned process has no input, exits immediately, and the user seesFailed to start agent: Session exited before init.agentStartHandlernow refuses headless invocations with no input source up front and prints the cause plus the three fixes (--prompt,--resume,--mode interactive).Smoke test (verified on this branch live via the local sf wrapper)
