[Docs] Documentation missing AGENTS.md as a default context filename #25205

Description

What happened?

The current documentation in gemini-md.md only mentions GEMINI.md as the default context filename. However, recent updates have introduced AGENTS.md as an additional default filename, but this is not reflected in the docs.

To Reproduce

Go to docs/cli/gemini-md.md.

Search for default context file naming conventions.

Observe that only GEMINI.md is listed.

Expected behavior
The documentation should clearly state that both GEMINI.md and AGENTS.md are supported as default context filenames to avoid user confusion.

Additional context
I have already submitted a Pull Request (PR) to fix this inconsistency.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the documentation in gemini-md.md to be up-to-date with the latest system changes. Specifically, it should list both GEMINI.md and AGENTS.md as valid default context filenames, as AGENTS.md was recently added but omitted from the docs.
