docs: disambiguate the two sub-agent glossary terms

Browse Source 
Normalize both entries to the hyphenated "sub-agent" spelling used elsewhere in the docs, split them into "Sub-agent (Coder Agents)" and "Sub-agent (dev containers)", add mutual "Not to be confused with" cross-references, and note that the dev container sub-agent is a Coder term, not part of the Development Container Specification.
