docs: update Learning Hub with CLI v1.0.40–v1.0.41 features (#1626)

Browse Source 
Add documentation for features shipped in Copilot CLI v1.0.40 and
the v1.0.41 prerelease builds that weren't yet covered in the Hub:

- copilot-configuration-basics.md: document --attachment flag for
  attaching images/documents in prompt mode (-p)
- automating-with-hooks.md: extend the prompt mode security callout
  to cover the new GITHUB_COPILOT_PROMPT_MODE_EXTENSIONS env var
  (user extensions load by default; project extensions need opt-in)
- building-custom-agents.md: note that ACP clients receive the
  agent's live plan in real time for multi-step tasks (v1.0.40+)

A: In VS Code, open Copilot Chat and use the agent picker dropdown at the top of the chat panel. Your custom agents appear alongside built-in options. You can also `@mention` an agent by name.
In Copilot CLI, custom agents are discoverable via the agent picker inside a session. Clients that integrate with Copilot CLI using the **Agent Coordination Protocol (ACP)** can also list available custom agents and switch between them programmatically via the `agent` session configuration option (v1.0.40+). This allows tools like Zed, Neovim plugins, and CI pipelines driving Copilot via ACP to surface the agent picker and switch agents without requiring a slash command.
