Teknium 06a17c57ae fix: improve profile creation UX — seed SOUL.md + credential warning (#8553) ...

Fresh profiles (created without --clone) now:
- Auto-seed a default SOUL.md immediately, so users have a file to
  customize right away instead of discovering it only after first use
- Print a clear warning that the profile has no API keys and will
  inherit from the shell environment unless configured separately
- Show the SOUL.md path for personality customization

Previously, fresh profiles started with no SOUL.md (only seeded on
first use via ensure_hermes_home), no mention of credential isolation,
and no guidance about customizing personality. Users reported confusion
about profiles using the wrong model/plan tokens and SOUL.md not
being read — both traced to operational gaps in the creation UX.

Closes #8093 (investigated: code correctly loads SOUL.md from profile
HERMES_HOME; issue was operational, not a code bug).
