docs: prepare v0.0.76 release notes

[apurvvkumaria]

Summary

Prepares the user-facing documentation for NemoClaw v0.0.76 and closes the release-prep documentation gate. It adds the release highlights, documents the arm64 Local NIM warning and expanded image cleanup behavior, and fixes agent-specific command headings in generated guides.

Changes

• Add the v0.0.76 release-notes section and move the shared-gateway route containment entry out of the v0.0.74 history where it was incorrectly placed.
• Document the advisory Linux arm64 Local NIM manifest warning in the canonical platform matrix and local-inference guidance.
• Document that gc scans both gateway-built and locally prebuilt sandbox image repositories.
• Keep OpenClaw and Hermes session headings out of the generated Deep Agents command guide.
• Add a focused variant regression test for the agent-specific session headings.

Full advisor summary

E2E Recommendation Advisor

Base: origin/main
Head: HEAD
Confidence: high

Required E2E

• None. No E2E is recommended. The diff is documentation/platform-matrix text plus a documentation-sync unit test. Although the docs mention onboarding, local NIM, sessions, and gc behavior, there are no touched runtime source files, workflow E2E definitions, sandbox assets, credentials/security boundaries, network policies, inference routing code, or onboarding state-machine/resume paths. Existing non-E2E docs generation/sync and unit tests are the appropriate coverage.

Optional E2E

• None.

New E2E recommendations

• None.

Required E2E targets

• None. Changes are limited to docs/platform-matrix content and a non-E2E docs sync test outside test/e2e; they do not affect the E2E target workflow, registry, runtime support, fixtures, manifests, or live target behavior.

Test follow-ups to resolve or justify

If these cover changed behavior, prefer adding them in this PR; otherwise state why existing coverage is enough or link the follow-up.

• PRA-T1 Runtime validation — Identify existing platform-doc generation check evidence that ci/platform-matrix.json and the rendered provider tables stay synchronized after the Local NVIDIA NIM note change.. The direct code change is docs/test-only and the added static regression covers the prior session-heading gap. Because several docs describe runtime/sandbox/inference behavior, confidence depends on existing runtime tests for those underlying already-merged behaviors rather than new runtime execution in this PR.
• PRA-T2 Runtime validation — Identify existing src/lib/onboard/nim-image-compat-warning.test.ts or test/onboard-nim-image-compat-warning.test.ts coverage showing Linux arm64 DGX Spark/Station NIM warnings are advisory and still allow attempting the selected image.. The direct code change is docs/test-only and the added static regression covers the prior session-heading gap. Because several docs describe runtime/sandbox/inference behavior, confidence depends on existing runtime tests for those underlying already-merged behaviors rather than new runtime execution in this PR.
• PRA-T3 Runtime validation — Identify existing src/lib/domain/maintenance/images.test.ts coverage showing gc treats nemoclaw-sandbox-local:* as a garbage-collectable sandbox image repository while preserving registered tags.. The direct code change is docs/test-only and the added static regression covers the prior session-heading gap. Because several docs describe runtime/sandbox/inference behavior, confidence depends on existing runtime tests for those underlying already-merged behaviors rather than new runtime execution in this PR.
• PRA-T4 Acceptance clause — No linked issue acceptance clauses were provided. — add test evidence or identify existing coverage. The deterministic validation context reports linkedIssues: [].
