docs(labels): quiet post-merge is visible, still never reclaimed

Browse source 
LABELS.md said the sweep never reclaims post-merge and stopped there, which
now reads as 'the machine says nothing' — after this change it says one
thing, once per 7 quiet days. Plus the fragment.

make the quiet visible — after 7 days without a comment, a review or a commit
the sweep posts one nudge naming the triage actor, saying the wake evidence is

`post-merge` never composes with `blocked`; the transition comment carries the
wait. It never composes with `attention`, because releasing the claim clears

### Added
- A `post-merge` item with no comment, review or commit for 7 days now draws
one nudge from the issue sweep: the wake evidence is owed. A starving
criterion used to be found only when someone happened to run the right read
(#254).
- The nudge names the triage actor from `triage-actors=`, not the human
reviewer: `post-merge` is triage's completion queue, so the starved wake
condition is triage's to answer (#254).
- It links the item and parses nothing from the body — which criterion
starved is prose, and the machine never judges prose (#254).
- Like the ruling nudge it carries no idempotency marker on purpose: the
comment is itself activity, so the rule self-rate-limits to one nudge per 7
quiet days. Comment-only — no path here writes a label (#254).
