workshop: a person's task still carries their go-ahead when their agent passes it on

The lead's guidance and the rig culture already count "the task they gave
you" as the person's word for publishing, but the next sentence excluded
any go-ahead passed on by another agent. In the normal flow the person's
task always reaches the lead through their own agent and the operator, so
a person who asked for a pull request in their first request was asked to
authorize it again.

Keep the publish protection and say how the case resolves: the task still
carries the person's word when it arrives that way, for what they asked
and nothing more (a pull request is not a merge, a release or other
posts); a task that asked only for the change still means asking before
publishing; a go-ahead another agent adds on its own still does not count.
"Speak up, then ask" now says "beyond what they asked for", so it no
longer reads as always asking before publishing.

The same three passages change in workshop and workshop-review-pair,
whose files were identical.
