refactor(agent): gadfly round 2 — shared leadingMarkers, explicit mode, comment altitude
CI / Tidy (pull_request) Successful in 9m24s
CI / Build & Test (pull_request) Successful in 9m52s

All tidiness, no behavior change: the leading-marker class is one shared
constant for citationLabelRe and summaryCloserRe (hand-copying it is how
'+' went missing the first time); the deliberate 'all' duplication across
summaryCopulas/summaryArticle is now stated at both sites; the weak-final
switch case assigns modeBackRef explicitly; test comments state the
constraint they guard instead of which reviewer asked for them.
