fix(dog): properly set identity for dog sessions

Browse Source 
Three fixes to make dog dispatch work end-to-end:

1. Add BuildDogStartupCommand in loader.go
   - Similar to BuildPolecatStartupCommand/BuildCrewStartupCommand
   - Passes AgentName to AgentEnv so BD_ACTOR is exported in startup command

2. Use BuildDogStartupCommand in dog.go
   - Removes ineffective SetEnvironment calls (env vars set after shell starts
     don't propagate to already-running processes)

3. Add "dog" case in mail_identity.go detectSenderFromRole
   - Dogs now use BD_ACTOR for mail identity
   - Without this, dogs fell through to "overseer" and couldn't find their mail

Tested: dog alpha now correctly sees inbox as deacon/dogs/alpha
