Lead the quick start with brew - #44

The first command was 'uvx agsearch', which fails with command-not-found for anyone without uv installed -- including on the machine this was written on. An error on the first line of the README is a worse first impression than any ordering concern. Brew is verified working against the released tarball, it is near-universal on macOS, and it is the only path that also resolves fzf, so the interface works on first run rather than falling back to non-interactive output. uvx stays, one paragraph down, where a missing uv is a shrug rather than a dead end. curl | sh stays in Installation. The tools that lead with it (uv, ollama) serve from their own domain and bootstrap their own ecosystem; the ones that sit inside an existing one (bun, starship) lead with a package manager.

Tools that sit inside an existing ecosystem — bun, starship — lead with a package manager, which is the closer comparison here.
