Defame1297 b07d54ad7a fix(lint): correct four Vale behaviours the skills described wrongly

Each of these would send a user down a path Vale does not support:

Core options placed under a glob header are not scoped to that glob — Vale
rejects them with E201, so the guidance to nest them produced a config that
will not load. The built-in `Vale` style is compiled in, but Vale still
requires StylesPath to exist on disk before it will run, so the "no StylesPath
needed" shortcut fails. The MDX guidance was inverted: under `[formats]
mdx = md` the mapping is what makes MDX lint at all, and it needs the mdx2vast
prerequisite that was never mentioned. And a spelling rule's `ignore` paths
resolve against StylesPath, not against the rule file's own directory, so the
documented relative paths silently matched nothing.

Description: Behaviour of Vale 3.15.2 established by running it against purpose-built fixtures in this repo, where vale.sh documents nothing or documents it wrongly: .mdx has no built-in support and needs either [formats] mdx = md or an external mdx2vast binary (absent, the whole invocation exits 2 with E100 [lintMDX]), the inline-suppression form inverts between those two configurations, the spelling check's ignore paths resolve against StylesPath or the working directory but never against the rule file's own directory and fail silently when they resolve nowhere, ls-config reports styles and paths but never rules, and the text.frontmatter.<key> scope matrix across multi-line YAML forms.
