console: give each AI employee a role icon; people keep their initials

The avatars were initials-plus-spark for the machines and bare initials for
people — thin, and it made five differently-skilled agents look like the same
badge in five colours. The convention that reads instantly is icons for
machines, initials for people: the contrast itself tells a human step from an
autonomous one before a name is read, and the symbol says WHICH machine.

Each employee now wears a glyph true to its job — a magnifier for Intake (checks
the lead), a speech bubble for Engage (talks to the customer), a shield for the
Advisor (recommends the cover), an ID badge for KYC (verifies identity), balance
scales for the Referral (prepares a file for a human to weigh). The AI spark
stays at the corner. People keep their initials, which is the right avatar for a
person and now the clear signal that a person, not a machine, did the step.

Verified legible at disc size (20-26px) across all five brand hues.
