Brayan Jules dbb25c63dd fix: Preserve command namespace in Copilot skill names

Stop stripping namespace prefixes when converting commands to Copilot
skills. `workflows:plan` now becomes `workflows-plan` instead of just
`plan`, avoiding clashes with Copilot's own features in the chat UI.

Also updates slash command references in body text to match:
`/workflows:plan` → `/workflows-plan`.

Copilot Skill Naming: Preserve Namespace

What We're Building

Change the Copilot converter to preserve command namespaces when converting commands to skills. Currently workflows:plan flattens to plan, which is too generic and clashes with Copilot's own features in the chat suggestion UI.

Why This Approach

The flattenCommandName function strips everything before the last colon, producing names like plan, review, work that are too generic for Copilot's skill discovery UI. Replacing colons with hyphens (workflows:plan -> workflows-plan) preserves context while staying within valid filename characters.

Key Decisions

Replace colons with hyphens instead of stripping the prefix: workflows:plan -> workflows-plan
Copilot only — other converters (Cursor, Droid, etc.) keep their current flattening behavior
Content transformation too — slash command references in body text also use hyphens: /workflows:plan -> /workflows-plan

Changes Required

src/converters/claude-to-copilot.ts — change flattenCommandName to replace colons with hyphens
src/converters/claude-to-copilot.ts — update transformContentForCopilot slash command rewriting
tests/copilot-converter.test.ts — update affected tests

Next Steps

-> Implement directly (small, well-scoped change)
