Summary
Fixes provider-backed managed-agent edits in Buzz Desktop.
The update command previously saved the revised Desktop record but did not call the provider's deploy operation. As a result, a remote agent kept its prior instruction and launch configuration even though the Desktop UI showed the edit as saved.
This change re-deploys the provider-backed agent after:
It keeps the provider deploy operation idempotent, so the remote launch configuration is updated without relying on a local Stop/Start transition that provider agents do not have.

Editing a remote managed agent's instruction, model, harness, or policy now updates the remote provider immediately instead of leaving it running the prior configuration.
