* feat(cli): restore IDE grouping using groupMultiselect
Replace flat multiselect with native @clack/prompts groupMultiselect
component to restore visual grouping of IDE/tool options:

- "Recommended Tools" - starred preferred options
- "Additional Tools" - other available options
This restores the grouped UX that was lost during the Inquirer.js
to @clack/prompts migration.

* feat: add editorial review tasks for structure and prose
Add two complementary editorial review tasks:
- editorial-review-structure.xml: Structural editor that proposes cuts,
reorganization, and simplification. Includes 5 document archetype models
(Tutorial, Reference, Explanation, Prompt, Strategic) for targeted evaluation.
- editorial-review-prose.xml: Clinical copy-editor for prose improvements
using Microsoft Writing Style Guide as baseline.
Both tasks support humans and llm target audiences with different principles.
* fix: add content-sacrosanct guardrail to editorial review tasks
Both editorial review tasks (prose and structure) were missing the key
constraint that reviewers should never challenge the ideas/knowledge
themselves—only how clearly they are communicated. This restores the
original design intent.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: align reader_type parameter naming across editorial tasks
Prose task was using 'target_audience' for the humans/llm optimization
flag while structure task correctly separates 'target_audience' (who
reads) from 'reader_type' (optimization mode). Aligns to reader_type.

Step 4 was missing a structured menu at the spec review checkpoint.
This caused agents to skip past the approval step without waiting for
explicit user confirmation.
Added:
- Review menu with [y] Approve, [c] Changes, [q] Questions, [a] Advanced Elicitation, [p] Party Mode
- Explicit HALT instruction
- Menu handling section
This aligns step 4 with the menu-driven pattern used in steps 1-3.

* fix(build): use file glob instead of sidebar parsing for llms-full.txt
