Zenoh D2D multicast scouting does not reliably connect two local processes on macOS (loopback), leaving discover() empty and invoke() with no responders. Add a collapsed note documenting the ZENOH_LISTEN / ZENOH_CONNECT TCP-link fallback.

The quick-start says a device started in D2D mode is discovered "instantly, no URLs needed." That relies on Zenoh UDP multicast scouting, which on macOS (loopback) does not reliably connect two local processes —
discover(...)returns empty andinvoke(...)reports no responders.This adds a collapsed
<details>note in step 3 documenting the explicit TCP-link fallback (ZENOH_LISTENon the device,ZENOH_CONNECTon the agent), so the happy path stays uncluttered while users who hit the issue have an answer.Verified locally on macOS: with the TCP link the agent discovers the device and
invokereturns the reading.
