Bug Description
Add a settings.json toggle to suppress the footer hint row (the ⏸ manual mode on · ← for agents legend). For users who stay in one permission mode and don't use background sessions, it's persistent, non-actionable clutter. The statusline is fully customizable but these footer badges aren't. A simple opt-out — e.g. footer.showHints: false, ideally per-badge — would be enough.
