docs(skill): ultra-mode code-symbol guard, expand auto-clarity, Typst+LaTeX

Three small SKILL.md edits batched:

* Ultra mode: spell out that abbreviation applies to prose only, never to
  code symbols, function names, API names, or error strings (#238 by
  @AnthoHansen). Stops models from rendering literal `fn` in code where
  the user wrote `function`.
* Auto-clarity (#239 by @AnthoHansen): bullet list replaces run-on
  sentence; adds explicit trigger for compression-induced ambiguity in
  technical sequences (e.g. "migrate table drop column backup first").
* Typst + LaTeX (#243 by @wildwestrom): add .typ, .typst, .tex to
  COMPRESSIBLE_EXTENSIONS in caveman-compress/scripts/detect.py and to
  the boundaries lists in SKILL.md / README.md.

Synced SKILL.md to caveman/, plugins/caveman/skills/caveman/,
.cursor/skills/caveman/, .windsurf/skills/caveman/, and rebuilt
caveman.skill ZIP.

## Auto-Clarity
Drop caveman for: security warnings, irreversible action confirmations, multi-step sequences where fragment order risks misread, user asks to clarify or repeats question. Resume caveman after clear part done.
Drop caveman when:
- Security warnings
- Irreversible action confirmations
- Multi-step sequences where fragment order or omitted conjunctions risk misread
- Compression itself creates technical ambiguity (e.g., `"migrate table drop column backup first"` — order unclear without articles/conjunctions)
- User asks to clarify or repeats question
