Docs: agent story cross-links + capability Beta promotions (landed after #5409 was merged) (#5410)
These changes were pushed to the #5409 branch minutes after it was squash-merged
and missed the merge; resubmitting on top of develop:/n/n- README.md / README.zh-CN.md: LLM streaming agent runtime feature bullet,
Agent tools & event triggers capability row, docs-list entries
- Connector Runtime and A2A / Agent Gateway promoted to Beta (the
Testcontainers E2E gate #5340 closed 2026-09)
- docs/feature/a2a.md: Related capabilities section pairing A2A with the
streaming agent runtime
- docs/index.md: A2A entry cross-links agent-tools

**Extensibility & ecosystem**
- **Agent-to-Agent (A2A) collaboration** — a built-in [A2A protocol](docs/feature/a2a.md) turns EventMesh into an agent collaboration bus, bridging synchronous MCP / JSON-RPC 2.0 tool calls and asynchronous event-driven pub/sub for LLM and multi-agent systems.
+- **LLM streaming agent runtime** — a standalone [agent process](docs/feature/agent-tools.md) hosts OpenAI-compatible LLM streaming sessions on the mesh, with function-calling tools: any [connector](docs/feature/connectors/README.md) becomes an agent tool, custom tools ship as [agent plugins](eventmesh-agent-plugin/) (SPI), and topics can drive agents as event triggers with decisions published back for sink delivery.
- **Pluggable storage layer** — [Apache RocketMQ](https://rocketmq.apache.org) (4.x / 5.x) and [Apache Kafka](https://kafka.apache.org) ship today, plus a zero-dependency in-memory backend as the dev/CI default; more backends via the `MeshStoragePlugin` SPI.
- **Pluggable interconnector layer** — [connectors](https://github.com/apache/eventmesh/tree/develop/eventmesh-connector-plugin) run as standalone processes acting as the source or sink of SaaS, CloudService, Database, etc.
- **Pluggable meta service** — [Nacos](https://nacos.io) ships today (multi-instance coordination); more backends via the same storage SPI.
