fix(cli): harden skill name handling during install (#2597)

* fix(cli): validate skill names to prevent path traversal on install

Adds boundary validation and containment checks so a remote SKILL.md
with a malicious name field (e.g. `name: ..`) cannot escape the skills
root during `ctx7 skills install`. Previously, the value flowed from
parseSkillFrontmatter to installSkillFiles unchecked, and the existing
traversal guard only verified files stayed inside the attacker-chosen
directory rather than the real skills root, enabling arbitrary file
writes outside `.claude/skills` (e.g. `.claude/settings.json` for
hook-driven RCE). symlinkSkill had the same trust issue and could
`rm(recursive: true)` arbitrary directories.

* chore: add changeset for skill name validation

* chore: soften changeset wording
