Speed up slow specs

- Reduce slow command specs because repeated `brew` subprocesses were
  dominating the profile more than the tested Homebrew behaviour.
- Preserve coverage by moving option and error branches into direct
  command-object specs where a full process adds no useful signal.
- Keep shell-specific coverage by folding Bash command checks into one
  subprocess harness for each affected Bash path.
- Combine formula and cask happy paths in `fetch`, `outdated` and
  `upgrade`, so one process still checks both package types.
- Keep `cmd/install` source, bottle, keg-only and `--HEAD` coverage,
  with `--HEAD` separate because the option applies to the whole call.
- Stub expensive `svn`, DMG mount and signal-wait paths so the specs
  cover Homebrew decisions without invoking slow external work.
- Document the integration-test limit in `AGENTS.md` so future command
  specs bias towards fast in-process coverage.

+- Write new tests (use at most one `:integration_test` per command, make it a happy-path test and keep it as fast as possible; add another only for essential core functionality in essential non-developer commands). Try `typed: true` as a baseline but revert to `typed: false` if there are not easily fixable errors.
   Write fast tests by preferring a single `expect` per unit test and combine expectations in a single test when it is an integration test or has non-trivial `before` for test setup.
 - When adding or tightening tests, verify them with a red/green cycle using the exact `--only=file:line` target for the example you changed.
 - Formula classes created in specs may be frozen; avoid stubbing class methods on them with RSpec mocks and prefer instance-level stubs or test setup that does not require class-method stubbing.
