Teknium 91b881f931 feat(mattermost): configurable mention behavior — respond without @mention (#3664)
Adds MATTERMOST_REQUIRE_MENTION and MATTERMOST_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS
env vars, matching Discord's existing mention gating pattern.

- MATTERMOST_REQUIRE_MENTION=false: respond to all channel messages
- MATTERMOST_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS=id1,id2: specific channels where
  bot responds without @mention even when require_mention is true
- DMs always respond regardless of mention settings
- @mention is now stripped from message text (clean agent input)

7 new tests for mention gating, free-response channels, DM bypass,
and mention stripping. Updated existing test for mention stripping.

Docs: updated mattermost.md with Mention Behavior section,
environment-variables.md with new vars, config.py with metadata.

"""Mattermost gateway adapter.
Connects to a self-hosted (or cloud) Mattermost instance via its REST API
(v4) and WebSocket for real-time events. No external Mattermost library
required — uses aiohttp which is already a Hermes dependency.
Environment variables:
MATTERMOST_URL Server URL (e.g. https://mm.example.com)
MATTERMOST_TOKEN Bot token or personal-access token
MATTERMOST_ALLOWED_USERS Comma-separated user IDs
MATTERMOST_HOME_CHANNEL Channel ID for cron/notification delivery
