Prefer build-and-run as the default simulator path when intent is to run or launch, while keeping build as a compile-only option.

Agents were frequently chaining build + build-and-run, which causes redundant builds and slows down iteration. This change aligns the behavior across three high-signal surfaces: skill guidance, tool descriptions, and list_schemes next-step hints.

I considered changing every hint surface in one pass (list_sims, show_build_settings, and additional docs), but kept this PR focused to minimize regression risk while still shifting default behavior at the main discovery funnel.

This touches workflow guidance and tool metadata, so reviewers should focus on whether the compile-only vs run-intent distinction remains clear and consistent.

Align agent guidance and simulator discovery hints so run or launch intent\ndefaults to build_run_sim while keeping build_sim as compile-only.\n\nThis avoids the common redundant sequence of running build_sim and then\nbuild_run_sim, which double-builds without adding value.
