Subject: [PATCH] docs(readme): restore "stateful agents" in opening sentence

Plastic Labs' canonical positioning uses "stateful agents" across
materials, and the original README opened with "for building stateful
agents." The repositioning pass in d6d60435 dropped the term entirely
(now zero occurrences) by following Vineeth's suggested opening copy
verbatim - but his audit's executive summary explicitly praised the
"stateful agents" positioning and didn't ask to remove it. Restoring
it in the bolded thesis sentence.
