Document ATVM missing-config fail-fast rule

Record the operator preference to stop immediately when a requested ATVM config file is missing. Update the ATVM guide, local agent instructions, and run learnings to avoid searching for or substituting alternate config files without explicit direction.

- Format failed machine lines as `machine-name - FAIL - <failure description>`.
- Prefer the longer same-line description when it adds useful operator-facing context.
- Keep `Notes` for broader context, anomalies, and extra follow-up detail beyond the machine-specific failure description.
## Run Learning: 2026-03-14 (Missing requested ATVM config must fail fast)
- Observed requirement:
- If the operator asks for a specific ATVM config file and that file is missing on the automation VM, looking for other config files or substituting a different one creates the wrong next step.
- The operator wants to decide what to do after a missing-config failure.
- Action for future runs:
- If the requested config file is missing, stop immediately and report the missing filename.
- Do not search the automation VM for alternate config files.
- Do not switch to another config unless the operator explicitly instructs it.
