Virtual file packages installed via an Artifactory proxy now use the Archive Entry Download API to fetch individual files directly, avoiding full archive downloads. Document this behavior and fallback in the Authentication guide's Registry proxy section. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

feat: Artifactory archive entry download for virtual file packages— virtual file packages (.prompt.md,.agent.md,.instructions.md, etc.) downloaded via an Artifactory proxy now use the Archive Entry Download API (!/{root}/{file}suffix) to fetch the single file directly, avoiding a full multi-MB archive download. Falls back to full-archive extraction on 404, connection error, or unsupported Artifactory version.Notes
The CHANGELOG already had an entry for this feature in
[0.8.10]. This PR fills the gap in the user-facing Authentication guide, which documented the Artifactory proxy setup but did not mention the bandwidth optimization introduced by #525.
