Subject: [PATCH] docs(site): document assignee fallback to last git author in
 create-work-item

When 'assignee' is omitted from the create-work-item configuration, the
executor falls back to the email of the last person who committed changes
to the agent source markdown file, discovered via 'git log' at Stage 3.
This behaviour was in docs/safe-outputs.md but missing from the site
reference page.
