fix: address second round of review feedback (priority order, fail-closed, docs)

- register_enabled_presets_for_agent now processes presets in reverse
  priority order (lowest-precedence first) so the highest-precedence
  preset is written last and actually wins after `integration use`
  rescaffolds two overlapping preset command overrides. Verified this
  reproduces the previously reported reversed-priority bug and that the
  fix resolves it.
- _register_commands_for_active_agent now checks for the "ai" key's
  presence separately from its value: a missing key still falls back to
  detection-based registration for all agents, but a recorded, malformed
  value (non-string or empty, e.g. [] or null) now fails closed
  (registers nothing) instead of being treated as "no active
  integration" or reaching AGENT_CONFIGS.get() with an unhashable key
  and raising TypeError.
- Updated docs/reference/presets.md and docs/reference/integrations.md
  to describe active-only preset/extension registration and clarify
  that `integration use`/`switch` is the activation point for
  installed extensions and presets, and that `upgrade` only
  re-registers them for the active integration.

Adds regression tests: two enabled presets overriding the same command
with different priorities (priority winner must survive `use`
rescaffolding), and a malformed recorded `ai` value ([]) for
`extension add`.

Installing an additional integration does not change the default integration. Use `specify integration use <key>` to change the default.
Installed extensions and presets are not registered for a non-default integration at install time — they follow the currently active (default) integration only. `specify integration use <key>` (or `switch <key>`) is what rescaffolds them for the newly active integration.
> **Note:** All integration management commands require a project already initialized with `specify init`. To start a new project with a specific agent, use `specify init <project> --integration <key>` instead.
**Version note:** Controlled multi-install support was introduced in Spec Kit 0.8.5. If `specify integration install <key>` says another integration is already installed and only suggests `switch` or `uninstall`, check your local CLI with `specify version` and upgrade it. Running a one-shot command such as `uvx --from git+https://github.com/github/spec-kit.git specify ...` uses a temporary copy for that command only; it does not update the persistent `specify` executable on your `PATH`.

Sets the default integration without uninstalling any other installed integrations. This also refreshes managed shared templates so command references match the new default integration's invocation style. Modified or untracked shared templates are preserved unless `--force` is used.
`use` is also the activation point for installed extensions and presets: it re-registers every enabled extension's and preset's command overrides (and skills, for skills-mode agents) for the newly active integration, so artifacts installed while a different integration was active are rescaffolded here rather than at install time.

Reinstalls an installed integration with updated templates and commands (e.g., after upgrading Spec Kit). Defaults to the default integration; if a key is provided, it must be one of the installed integrations. Detects locally modified files and blocks the upgrade unless `--force` is used. Stale files from the previous install that are no longer needed are removed automatically. Shared templates stay aligned with the default integration even when upgrading a non-default integration.
Enabled extensions and presets are re-registered only when upgrading the currently active (default) integration; upgrading a non-default integration does not touch its extension or preset artifacts — `use`/`switch` that integration afterward to rescaffold them.

### When should I use `upgrade` vs `switch`?
Use `upgrade` when you've upgraded Spec Kit and want to refresh an installed integration's managed files. Use `switch` when you want to replace the current default with another integration; if the target is already installed, `switch` behaves like `use`.
### Do extensions and presets I install apply to every installed integration?
No. Extensions (`specify extension add`) and presets (`specify preset add`) register their command overrides for the currently active (default) integration only, even if other integrations are installed. A non-default integration does not receive those artifacts until it becomes the default: `specify integration use <key>` (or `switch <key>`) rescaffolds every enabled extension and preset for the newly active integration. `specify integration upgrade` follows the same rule — it only re-registers extensions and presets when upgrading the active integration.

Presets can provide command files, template files (like `plan-template.md`), and script files. Each file name is evaluated independently against the priority stack, so different files can come from different layers.
Templates and scripts are looked up from the stack when Spec Kit needs them. Commands use the same stack for replacement and composition, but are materialized into detected agent directories instead of being re-resolved by agents. During preset install, Spec Kit registers command files for the preset being installed; post-install and post-removal reconciliation then recomputes and writes the effective command content for affected command names based on the active stack. Agents do not re-resolve the stack each time they run a command.

Commands use the same stack for replacement and composition, but are materialized into the active integration's directory only, instead of being re-resolved by agents or written to every detected agent directory (#2948). During preset install, Spec Kit registers command files for the preset being installed against the currently active integration; post-install and post-removal reconciliation then recomputes and writes the effective command content for affected command names based on the active stack.

Agents do not re-resolve the stack each time they run a command.
By default, files use a **replace** strategy: the first match in the priority stack wins and is used entirely. Templates and commands can also use composition strategies: **prepend** places preset content before lower-priority content, **append** places it after lower-priority content, and **wrap** replaces `{CORE_TEMPLATE}` with lower-priority content. Scripts support **replace** and **wrap**; script wrappers use `$CORE_SCRIPT` as the placeholder.
