nisse-review: later reviews, replies, rounds, stop and review (M7.5)

Back on a PR it reviewed: a new head gets a later review of the commits
since (each one's diff, through the API) and of its earlier points; what
was said since gets replies, answered where it was said or skipped with a
reason. It signs off once and stays quiet while still happy. Past
tuning.review.max_rounds it sums up for the operator and goes quiet,
until a push or someone other than the PR's author joins in. An
operator's `stop` quiets it; `review` asks for a fresh review.

Reviews carry numbered markers and replies their point's key, so
recovery posts nothing twice.

`review` on a PR (R1, R2, R5):
- **What wakes it:** each round, intake reads what was said on every open PR
(top-level comments, review bodies, line comments) and keeps the keys it has
taken in; anything new but its own is a point to answer. A run is due for a
PR never reviewed (or `review`ed), a new head (a **later review**, after its
CI as before), or new points at the same head (**replies**, no CI wait).
- **A later review** is given the commits since its last review with each
one's diff (Gitea's compare lists them; the per-commit diff comes through the
API, since the web's compare diff takes no token), or the whole diff if they
can't be listed, and its earlier points with what was said on their lines.
- **Replies:** `reply` answers a point where it was made (inline on its line,
else quoting it), `skip` leaves it with a reason, `done` ends; every point is
answered or skipped before a run may end. Each reply carries its point's key,
so a run re-done after a crash answers nothing twice.
- **Sign-off:** `sign_off` posts a short review when there is nothing to raise;
while it stays happy, a later review offers `still_happy`, which posts nothing
(operator: no repeated LGTMs).
- **Rounds:** each review, and each run that replied, is a round. Past
`tuning.review.max_rounds`, the next run sums up what is still open for the
operator (`post_summary`, as a review) and the item goes quiet (`capped`). A
push, or a comment from anyone but the reviewer and the PR's author (bots
included: the operator wants to see how the model handles them), resets it.
- **`stop` and `review`:** an operator's whole comment; acknowledged with a 👍
reaction. `stop` quiets the item through pushes and comments; `review` asks
for a fresh review of the whole PR, and retries a failed item.
- **Durability:** reviews carry a numbered marker (`<!-- nisse-review: {head}
#{n} -->`, the first in M7.3's form), so recovery asks Gitea about the right
one; items from before M7.5 take what was already said as heard.
- **Tests:** `test_review_rounds.py`, including a no-dead-end walk over every
position; the live smoke test adds a push and a question, and checks the
later review at the new head.
**M7.6 Deployment.** *Waits for the agent host (Phase 6).* Its image, container,
Gitea account and secrets (R5).
