docs(config): align environment and credential contracts

Code already treats $DSH_HOME/.env as ordinary launch environment and stores managed credentials in .credentials.yaml, but public docs still described the old store, old precedence, removed literal adapter keys, and the deleted TUI. That directed users to the wrong file and overstated the supported configuration surface.

Update the existing English and Chinese owners in place, document inherited > managed > project > user credential resolution, and record the loadLayeredEnv export. Regenerate only pairing records and the source-line catalog; add no new section or site route.

The launching environment wins because a per-run override (`DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=… dsh`, a CI secret, a container `-e`) is operator intent for this run — and because it cannot be edited from inside, it must be *visibly* read-only: `describe()` reports `source: 'env', writable: false`, and `set`/`unset` reject instead of writing a change the reader would never see.
Everything below it loses to the managed store, so a key written by the web page or TUI takes effect immediately even when an older key sits in a `.env`. Those two layers still resolve when nothing is stored, and `describe()` names them `project-env` or `user-env` with `writable: true` — storing a key replaces them as the effective source.

Under the product CLI, resolution reads the launcher's frozen [environment snapshot](../../util/environment/README.md) rather than `process.env`: only the snapshot can say whether a value came from the launching shell or from a file. A composition the product CLI did not boot has the inherited environment as its only layer, which keeps embedders on the semantics they already had.
