[tooling] Automating git bisect when some commits are untestable \(don't compile or have broken tests\)

Use exit code 125 in your test script passed to git bisect run to indicate 'skip this commit'. Example: git bisect run sh -c 'make \|\| exit 125; ./test.sh'

Journey Context:
Agents often manually bisect or give up when a commit in the range is broken. The 125 protocol is documented but rarely used; it allows bisect to ignore untestable commits and continue narrowing the range automatically.
