feat(lint): expand Vale audit prefilter into a broader plugin-content harness

Deferred item from PR #85 review. Per ADR-0013: cherry-picks two low-noise
rules from trialing write-good/alex against the real corpus (VagueQualifier,
SentenceOpenerThereIs) into styles/Kyberforge rather than adopting either
package wholesale (both are tuned for blog prose and were noisy on this
repo's terse, imperative instruction files - see the ADR's rejected-rule
list). Adds a new skill-size-check pre-commit hook enforcing agentskills.io's
500-line/5,000-token SKILL.md ceiling, currently unenforced. Fixes the 28
resulting violations across 20 existing SKILL.md/agent files so the
enforcing pre-commit hook lands clean.

governance.md/CONTROLS.md were evaluated and excluded as rule sources -
they're org/CI-infrastructure controls, not prose patterns Vale can express.

@@ -74,5 +74,7 @@ Wiring Vale as a deterministic prefilter for `skill-audit`/`agent-audit`'s Descr
Both skills' Step 1, and the `vale-audit-prefilter` pre-commit hook, call `scripts/vale-wrap.sh` rather than `vale` directly — a workaround for a confirmed Vale 3.15.2 limitation (see `vale-config`'s Gotchas): `text.frontmatter.description` silently stops matching once the description is a YAML block scalar (`>`/`|`) spanning 2+ physical lines, which is how most skills/agents in this repo write it. The wrapper flattens the description to one physical line in a scratch copy (padding with blank lines so every other line number is unchanged) before handing off to real `vale`; single-line descriptions pass through untouched. `tests/test-vale-wrap.sh` regression-tests this. Both call sites still scope every invocation to the specific file(s) being audited, never a repo-wide sweep — Vale's glob matching crosses directory boundaries (`plugins/*/agents/*.md` matches nested `docs/research/examples/**/agents/*.md` too), so scoping is what keeps research-example files out of the audit's lint pass. The pre-commit hook's own glob is tightened to `^plugins/[^/]+/(skills/[^/]+/SKILL\.md|agents/[^/]+\.md)$` (single-segment, not `.*`) for the same reason, since pre-commit invokes it automatically against whatever staged files match rather than a manually-scoped target.
This scope expands per ADR-0013: cherry-picked low-noise `write-good`/`alex` rules into `styles/Kyberforge` (still pending implementation) plus a new sibling pre-commit hook, `skill-size-check` (`scripts/skill-size-check.sh`), enforcing `skill-authoring.md`'s 500-line/5,000-token `SKILL.md` ceiling — scoped to `^plugins/[^/]+/skills/[^/]+/SKILL\.md$` only, same as `vale-audit-prefilter`, so it never lints `docs/research/examples/` reference skills. File scope (`SKILL.md` + agent files) and enforcement model (rules land directly in `styles/Kyberforge`, blocking immediately, no trial tier) stay unchanged; governance.md/CONTROLS.md were evaluated and excluded as rule sources (nothing prose-pattern-matchable to mine).
