Release v2.1.0: Opus 4.8-tuned pm-ai-shipping audits + CHANGELOG-driven release automation

pm-ai-shipping: mandatory Evidence citations verified before reporting,
concrete subagent fan-out contract, read-only allowed-tools on both audits,
N+1/waterfall detection and a refute pass in the performance audit,
untrusted-input hardening across the kit, parallel audits in /ship-check,
severity anchors + report consolidation, repo-relative paths.

Repo: CHANGELOG.md as release source of truth with auto-tag-and-release on
merge to main (adapted from phuryn/claude-usage, minus the .vsix build),
Tests workflow on every PR/push, unit + docs-consistency test suite,
contributor-credit conventions in CONTRIBUTING, all manifests synced at 2.1.0.

 Create or refresh `CLAUDE.md` (and a thin `AGENTS.md` pointing to it) **derived from** the system docs — the operating instructions the next AI coding agent inherits: what the system is, the trust boundaries, what may and may not be touched, where the guardrails are. This is a different artifact from the system docs: instructions, not description.

 - This is a handoff compiler: the value is sequencing plus synthesis, not re-deriving each audit.
 - If documentation is missing, the packet says so loudly — an audit without documented intent is incomplete, and the inventory makes that visible rather than hiding it.
 - Findings are code-review results, not confirmed exploits; the packet is a basis for human sign-off, not a substitute for it.
