* feat(#787): elevate Cline — .clinerules/ dir form, PreToolUse hook, AGENTS.md

Migrate the installer's Cline output from a single-file .clinerules to the
.clinerules/ directory form (.clinerules/gsd.md), which is the prerequisite for
Cline's v3.36 hooks (a path cannot be both a file and a directory). Add a
.clinerules/hooks/PreToolUse lifecycle hook implementing Cline's JSON stdin ->
{cancel,errorMessage,contextModification} protocol; it guards .planning/
artifacts and fails open. On global installs, merge GSD instructions into the
cross-tool ~/.agents/AGENTS.md target (marker-delimited, merge-safe). A legacy
single-file .clinerules is migrated in place; --uninstall removes the new
artifacts and strips the AGENTS.md GSD block.

Also fixes the uninstall targetDir for Cline local installs (it pointed at
./.cline instead of the project root) and re-runs writeManifest after the
Cline artifacts are written so they are hash-tracked.

Self-contained: implemented independently of the #782 Cline skills work.

* fix(#787): address review findings

- Scope PreToolUse hook path-walk to PATH_KEY fields only (eliminates false
  positive when doc body content mentions .planning/)
- Use lstatSync + isSymbolicLink() for migration guard so GSD never writes
  through a user's symlinked .clinerules into an external directory
- Add regression tests for both cases

Elevate the Cline runtime to hook parity. The installer now emits the Cline `.clinerules/` directory form (`.clinerules/gsd.md`) instead of a single `.clinerules` file, adds a `.clinerules/hooks/PreToolUse` lifecycle hook (Cline v3.36+ JSON stdin → `{cancel,errorMessage,contextModification}` protocol; guards `.planning/` artifacts and fails open), and merges GSD instructions into the cross-tool global `~/.agents/AGENTS.md` target on global installs. A legacy single-file `.clinerules` is migrated to the directory form in place, and `--uninstall` removes the new artifacts and strips the GSD block from `~/.agents/AGENTS.md`. (#787)
