Bind named `to_actor.run()` inputs with partials

PR #481 made target inputs positional and reserved keywords for
actor placement/runtime controls. PR #484 still forwarded target
kwargs, so tests and examples failed local signature binding after
the rebase.

Deats,
- bind named target inputs with `functools.partial()`
- keep placement, naming and runtime controls as direct keywords
- reject invalid target calls locally before actor startup
- require linked one-shots to raise one direct `RemoteActorError`
- doc linked context execution and per-child process reaping

+## Prompt
+
+Rebase PR #484 onto final PR #481, migrate every affected one-shot call
+to the new positional target API and continue through downstream tests,
+examples and documentation review.
+
+## Response summary
+
+Converted stale target keyword calls to target partials so previously
+named inputs remain explicit while placement/runtime controls stay
+direct. Updated error expectations for local signature validation and
+linked remote error propagation, then corrected docs which still
+described the removed one-shot implementation. Linked spawning and
+context lifecycle prose to the corresponding API methods and detailed
+context guide.
+
+## Files changed
+
+- `docs/api/core.rst` - describe linked one-shot context execution.
+- `docs/guide/rpc.rst` - update placement and target call semantics.
+- `docs/guide/spawning.rst` - document positional target inputs.
+- `examples/debugging/multi_nested_subactors_error_up_through_nurseries.py` - migrate nested actor target inputs.
+- `examples/debugging/root_cancelled_but_child_is_in_tty_lock.py` - preserve named recursive target inputs with partials.
+- `tests/test_advanced_streaming.py` - migrate streaming target inputs.
+- `tests/test_cancellation.py` - migrate calls and tighten errors.
+- `tests/test_infected_asyncio.py` - bind asyncio target options.
+- `tests/test_rpc.py` - migrate RPC target argument binding.
+- `tests/test_runtime.py` - preserve named runtime target inputs.
+- `tests/test_spawning.py` - preserve named spawning target inputs.
+
+## Human edits
+
+The human selected the stack order and final PR #481 base, asked the
+agent to continue after each diagnostic step and required a complete
+commit plan after independently force-pushing the rebased history.
+After reviewing the migration, the human required every formerly named
+target input to remain visibly named through `functools.partial()`
+rather than becoming positional. These were human-directed agent edits;
+the human also required plain `start_actor()` and `open_context()`
+references in the spawning and RPC guides to link to their API methods
+and the detailed context guide, then clarified that `to_actor.run()`
+already uses the full context API while `Portal.run()` should share
+linked lifecycle machinery without necessarily delegating through
+`Portal.open_context()` or adding a `Started` message. The human made
+no direct source-line edits.
