docs: add Hlido to the third-party plugins acknowledgment

[ankitkapur1992-hlido]

What

Adds Hlido to the third-party plugins acknowledgment in the README, alongside Tavily, Redis, and ATR. One-line change.

Hlido publishes independent, evidence-backed trust scores for AI agents ("Rotten Tomatoes for AI agents"). It registers a hlido function group via the nat.plugins entry point, so a NeMo Agent Toolkit workflow can vet another agent before delegating to, installing, or relying on it:

• hlido__trust_check — score (0-100), tier, verdict, incidents
• hlido__find_trusted — discover trusted agents for a need
• hlido__verify_claim — fact-check a vendor claim against independent testing
• hlido__get_scorecard — full claim-vs-evidence scorecard

Public API, no key required.

pip install hlido

In a NeMo Agent Toolkit environment that's all that's needed — the hlido function group auto-registers via its nat.plugins entry point. Then:

function_groups:
  hlido:
    _type: hlido

Disclosure

I'm the founder of Hlido. This is opt-in, uses only the public Hlido API, and adds no dependencies to the toolkit (the README acknowledgment is the only change here).

A note on packaging (transparency)

Hlido's integration ships inside our umbrella package (pip install hlido, core hlido-trust) rather than a standalone nemo-agent-toolkit-hlido distribution — we deliberately keep one pip name across all our framework integrations. It still conforms to the runtime contract: nat.plugins entry-point group, entry point nat_hlido, registered _type hlido, and hlido__* tool names. Verified end-to-end: in a NeMo environment pip install hlido makes the toolkit discover the function group.

If you'd prefer we conform to the nemo-agent-toolkit-<provider> / nat.plugins.<provider> naming convention before listing (or would rather phrase/relocate the acknowledgment differently), I'm happy to adapt — just let me know.

Signed-off-by per the DCO.
