feat(v0.6.0): review hardening — live active_skills clustering, computable fingerprints

Full codebase review (multi-agent, adversarially verified) surfaced several
documented-but-dead mechanisms and doc/code drift. Fixes:

- adam-observe: struggle signals now emit `active_skills`, so silent_drift's
  primary cluster key AND §5b skill-attribution sub-clustering (+1 rubric
  bonus) actually fire — both were silently dead (no struggle signal carried
  the field).
- adam-cooldown: new `--compute` CLI deterministically derives
  proposal_fingerprint. The exported computeProposalFingerprint() was never
  called and the analyst was told to hand-compute a djb2 hash it cannot
  reproduce. Spec now mandates a *stable* cluster id so fingerprints reproduce
  across /reflect runs. Removed one dead normalization line.
- spec: reinforcement proposals excluded from A/B tracking — agents/adam.md
  contradicted itself (:376 included, :476 excluded); SKILL.md aligned.
- adam-nudge: PENDING_CHECK_PATHS now mirrors the full install set
  (adam-utils / adam-batch / adam-rollback were missing).
- adam-explain: synthesized clustering summary carries `regressions: 0`
  (structural consistency with parsed summaries).
- docs: test-count drift (87/94 -> 126) and "350-line hook" (-> ~600) fixed;
  adam-score header documents severity_sum/severity_by_type; adam-batch §4
  reference corrected.

Tests: +12 assertions (114 -> 126), all green. New regression tests cover the
active_skills fix and --compute, plus boundary gaps the review flagged:
retry_loop/weak_agent thresholds, A/B exact +/-25% deltas, cooldown 30d
blacklist edge.

`proposal_fingerprint` is computed deterministically as `djb2(skill_slug + "\n" + signal_cluster_id + "\n" + normalized_diff_body)` returned as base36, where:
- `skill_slug` — target skill basename (or proposed slug for `skill_new`)
- `signal_cluster_id`the cluster id you assigned in the clustering trace (e.g. `c1`, `tool_error_loop-ECONNREFUSED:5432`)
- `normalized_diff_body` — proposal's `# Proposed change` section with all whitespace collapsed to single spaces and trailing newlines stripped
- `signal_cluster_id`a **stable** cluster id derived from signal type + key (e.g. `tool_error_loop-ECONNREFUSED:5432`), NOT the ephemeral per-run trace id (`c1`). Stability matters: the same logical proposal must hash identically across `/reflect` runs or the cooldown can never match a prior applied/rejected record.
- `normalized_diff_body` — proposal's `# Proposed change` section with all whitespace collapsed to single spaces and trimmed
Both apply-time and analyst-time checks invoke `adam-cooldown.mjs --skill <slug> --fingerprint <hash>`. The script returns one of `{"status":"cool"}`, `{"status":"cooldown",...}`, or `{"status":"blacklisted",...}`. Auto-apply requires `cool`.
Do NOT hand-compute the hash (an LLM cannot reproduce djb2 reliably). Run the canonical implementation (`computeProposalFingerprint()` in `adam-cooldown.mjs`) via Bash, then write the result into frontmatter:
```bash
node ~/.claude/adam/scripts/adam-cooldown.mjs --compute \
--skill <slug> --cluster <signal_cluster_id> --diff-file <file-with-Proposed-change-body>
# → {"fingerprint":"<djb2_base36>"} (diff body may also be piped on stdin)
```
Both apply-time and analyst-time *gate* checks then invoke `adam-cooldown.mjs --skill <slug> --fingerprint <hash>`. The script returns one of `{"status":"cool"}`, `{"status":"cooldown",...}`, or `{"status":"blacklisted",...}`. Auto-apply requires `cool`.
Backward compat: proposals from before this rubric version (no `proposal_fingerprint` field) are treated as `fingerprint = "legacy"`. The cooldown script matches legacy applied/rejected records against any query fingerprint for the same skill — i.e. coarse-grained gating until those records age out of their windows (7d / 30d).
