fix(cli): ag run finds project-local .aegis/config.yaml (#3307)

defaultConfigPath() in run.ts was hardcoded to ~/.aegis/config.yaml,
ignoring project-local configs. Now uses findConfigFilePath() to search
for existing configs before falling back to home directory.

Fixes #3307

+ *
+ * Fix: defaultConfigPath() now uses findConfigFilePath() to search for
+ * existing configs (CWD .aegis/config.yaml, home dir, etc.) before
+ * falling back to the hardcoded home path.
