Adds an "Add co-authors to commits" section to the editor settings page, next to the other publishing settings.

When admins turn it on, editor commits credit the publisher and every teammate whose changes are included as co-authors. The page explains which email each co-author gets, that deactivated members are skipped, and that the setting is off by default.

Based on add setting to credit editors as commit co-authors, which added the toggle to the dashboard, plus the matching backend change that writes the co-author trailers.

Duplicate check: open and recently merged docs PRs, including the author's, Ethan's, and mintlify[bot] PRs, for "co-author" and editor settings; none cover this.


Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only change with no product or runtime impact.

Overview
Documents a new Add co-authors to commits publishing setting on the editor settings page, placed after draft PR defaults and before granular publishing.

The section explains that enabling it adds the editor as a co-author on each commit (alongside the Mintlify bot on GitHub), that it defaults to off, and how attribution picks a GitHub no-reply email when GitHub is linked versus the Mintlify account email otherwise.
