rootiest 00f70e8558 docs(functions): merge remaining manual-only facts into headers
Word-level diff of every manual entry against its generated counterpart
surfaced 546 tokens present in the manual and absent from the header —
losses reconcile.py missed, because it compared description length and
these headers are longer overall thanks to ARGUMENTS/RETURNS.

Merged the substantive ones (546 -> 202 residual tokens, the remainder
being synonym drift). Notable real fixes:

- git-clean: -f/--force was missing from ARGUMENTS entirely
- pkg: per-package-manager query table
- qc: cli-role rationale, role paths, --role passthrough
- config-help: site URL, xdg-open, man page path, case-insensitivity
- agents-init: idempotency, .gitignore paths, upstream pull, wrapper callers
- smart_exit: exit-builtin wiring note, $SCROLLBACK_HISTORY_DIR

The manual's claim that claude/agy pass `agents-init --agents` is stale;
both pass `--quiet` (full setup). Header wins, manual dropped.

#
# SYNOPSIS
# bkg <command> [args...]
#
# DESCRIPTION
# Launches a command in the background, fully detached from the terminal
# using nohup. All stdout and stderr output is discarded. Simpler than
# detach; no --version flag.
#
# ARGUMENTS
# command The command to run detached
# args... Additional arguments for the command
#
# RETURNS
# 0 Command launched successfully
# 1 No command provided
#
# EXAMPLE
# bkg firefox
function bkg --description 'Execute bkg'
# Check if a command was provided as an argument.
if test -z "$argv[1]"
echo "Usage: bkg <command> [arguments...]"
return 1
end
# Run the command using nohup to make it immune to hangups (like closing the terminal).
# Redirect both stdout and stderr to /dev/null to discard all output.
# The final ampersand (&) sends the entire process to the background.
nohup $argv &>/dev/null &
