Why editor_set_main_scene needs a policy

This tool modifies project metadata by changing which scene is the main entry point. While reversible (can be changed again), it affects runtime behavior and project integrity. It's a Write action because it updates project state without destruction, but severity is high because misconfiguration could break game initialization or cause unexpected behavior if an agent sets it to invalid/unsafe values.

From the tool's definition Set the project main scene. This modifies project configuration state (the entry point scene for game execution).
