feat: skills as branches, channels as forks

Browse Source 
Replace the custom skills engine with standard git operations.
Feature skills are now git branches (on upstream or channel forks)
applied via `git merge`. Channels are separate fork repos.

- Remove skills-engine/ (6,300+ lines), apply/uninstall/rebase scripts
- Remove old skill format (add/, modify/, manifest.yaml) from all skills
- Remove old CI (skill-drift.yml, skill-pr.yml)
- Add merge-forward CI for upstream skill branches
- Add fork notification (repository_dispatch to channel forks)
- Add marketplace config (.claude/settings.json)
- Add /update-skills operational skill
- Update /setup and /customize for marketplace plugin install
- Add docs/skills-as-branches.md architecture doc

Channel forks created: nanoclaw-whatsapp (with 5 skill branches),
nanoclaw-telegram, nanoclaw-discord, nanoclaw-slack, nanoclaw-gmail.

Upstream retains: skill/ollama-tool, skill/apple-container, skill/compact.

## Quick Start
```bash
git clone https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw.git
gh repo fork qwibitai/nanoclaw --clone
cd nanoclaw
claude
```
<details>
<summary>Without GitHub CLI</summary>
1. Fork [qwibitai/nanoclaw](https://github.com/qwibitai/nanoclaw) on GitHub (click the Fork button)
2. `git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/nanoclaw.git`
3. `cd nanoclaw`
4. `claude`

Then run `/setup`. Claude Code handles everything: dependencies, authentication, container setup and service configuration.

**Don't add features. Add skills.**
If you want to add Telegram support, don't create a PR that adds Telegram alongside WhatsApp. Instead, contribute a skill file (`.claude/skills/add-telegram/SKILL.md`) that teaches Claude Code how to transform a NanoClaw installation to use Telegram.
If you want to add Telegram support, don't create a PR that adds Telegram to the core codebase. Instead, fork NanoClaw, make the code changes on a branch, and open a PR. We'll create a `skill/telegram` branch from your PR that other users can merge into their fork.
Users then run `/add-telegram` on their fork and get clean code that does exactly what they need, not a bloated system trying to support every use case.
