Skills standard compliance

Implement Agent Skills standard (https://agentskills.io/specification):
- Validate name (must match parent dir, lowercase, max 64 chars)
- Validate description (required, max 1024 chars)
- Warn on unknown frontmatter fields
- Warn on name collisions (keep first)
- Change prompt format to XML structure
- Remove {baseDir} placeholder (use relative paths)
- Add tests and update documentation
