Add cross-tool positioning, Python helpers, tiers, and hygiene docs

Five improvements to position the library as a serious engineering project:

1. Cross-tool compatibility — new README "Works With" section honestly
   documenting where skills run (Claude Code natively; SKILL.md bodies
   port to other agents and chat LLMs as system prompts).

2. Python helper scripts (stdlib-only) for the three strongest skills:
   - sprint-planning: capacity_calculator.py (recommended commitment)
   - rice-prioritisation: rice_calculator.py (ranks, flags quick wins/moonshots)
   - cs-health-scorecard: health_score.py (weighted total + RAG)
   Each is wired into its SKILL.md and synced to the plugin copies.

3. Explicit skill tiering — TIERS.md + README section marking 46
   Production-Ready skills and calling out Experimental (external-dependency)
   ones; everything else is Stable.

4. Repository hygiene — new CHANGELOG.md (Keep a Changelog format) and
   SKILL-AUTHORING-STANDARD.md; refreshed SECURITY.md version table and
   helper-script disclosure; added .gitignore.

5. Related Projects — README section linking to alirezarezvani/claude-skills
   and the major awesome-claude-skills / awesome-claude-code lists.

## Programmatic Helper
This skill ships with a stdlib-only Python script that computes capacity instead of estimating it by hand. Use it whenever the team's numbers are known — it applies the availability and 80% commit-ratio rules consistently.
```bash
# Quick estimate from flags
python3 scripts/capacity_calculator.py --team 5 --days 10 --velocity 30 --availability 0.8 --carryover 5
# Detailed estimate from per-member availability (JSON via stdin or --input file.json)
echo '{"sprint_days":10,"historical_velocity":40,"carryover_points":8,
"members":[{"name":"Ada","available_days":10},{"name":"Linus","available_days":7}]}' \
| python3 scripts/capacity_calculator.py --input -
```
The script returns available focus hours, a velocity figure adjusted for real availability, the **recommended commitment** (capped at 80% of velocity), and the remaining **capacity for new work** after carry-overs. Run it first, then build the sprint backlog to fit the recommended number. Add `--json` to pipe the result into other tooling.
## Output Format
### Sprint [N] — [Start Date] to [End Date]
