release: wally 0.5.6

[Siddhesh2377]

Patch release for the Claude Code on Qwen fix (#77): wally's shim now folds Claude Code's in-conversation system turns into the leading system message, so qwen3.8-27b stops returning "System message must be at the beginning."

Same two files as 0.5.5: versions.toml and the Formula stamp. scripts/ci/check-versions.py passes locally.

The Homebrew package remains uninstallable until its checksum is finalized, and the new guides can mislead JetBrains and Linux users. These issues should be corrected before release.

In `@docs/EDITORS.md`:
- Around line 28-29: Update the cleanup documentation near the interrupted-run
guidance to describe JetBrains IDE cleanup separately from Claude Desktop,
explicitly covering clion and rustrover and instructing users to run --restore
because stopping the proxy alone leaves the provider URL configured.

In `@README.md`:
- Line 15: Update the Linux x64 entry in the engine support table to indicate
support via the prebuilt release artifact selected by install.sh, rather than
source-build only. Keep the existing macOS Apple Silicon entry and other table
content unchanged.
