docs(niri): fold AGENTS.md overwrite into niri KB section
The working tree had replaced the operating contract in AGENTS.md with a niri config-reload + keybinding-constraints note. Content relocated to its proper home: tips.md 3-config-reload (SIGHUP footgun, load-config-file) and key-bindings-syntax.md constraints section. AGENTS.md restored from HEAD.

## 3. Config reload
|
||||
|
||||
niri supports live-reloading config without restart.
|
||||
**Do NOT send `SIGHUP` to the niri process** (`kill -s SIGHUP $(pgrep -f 'niri --session')`) — it causes a full session logout/restart instead of a live config reload.
|
||||
|
||||
Correct reload options, in order of preference:
|
||||
- `niri msg action load-config-file` — live reload without disrupting the session (preferred).
|
||||
- Log out and back in (safe, guaranteed clean reload).
|
||||
- Let the user decide when to reload; agents should modify config files without auto-reloading.
|
||||
|
||||
Niri reads `~/.config/niri/config.kdl` (or `config.kdl` relative to its CWD). Split config lives in `~/.config/niri/cfg/` — each `.kdl` file is `include`d from the main config, so a reload picks up edits to any included module.
