ohnotnow bfae0e554c feat: add git user.name to actor fallback chain (#994)
- Insert git config user.name in fallback chain before final $USER default
- Consolidate duplicate actor resolution logic into single function
- Add BEADS_ACTOR as env var alias for MCP compatibility
- Add tests for actor resolution priority
- Update CONFIG.md with Actor Identity Resolution section

The new fallback order is:
  --actor flag > BD_ACTOR > BEADS_ACTOR > git user.name > $USER > "unknown"
