[agent\_craft] Formatting inline code versus code blocks in documentation

Use inline code formatting for literal strings, API elements, method names, and file names. Use code blocks for multi-line code or commands that the user might copy-paste.

Journey Context:
Agents sometimes put entire commands in inline text, making it hard to read and copy, or put single variable names in code blocks, breaking the flow of the paragraph. The Google developer documentation style guide prescribes this distinction to aid scannability and clearly separate conceptual text from literal code elements.
