feat: Global install guide for VS Code Copilot and Cursor users

IDE platforms load skills per-project, not globally. Added clone-once
symlink pattern: clone to ~/agent-skills/, symlink into each project.
Shell alias automates the per-project symlink. Updates propagate to
all projects with one git pull.

### IDEs — global install (available in all projects)
IDE platforms like VS Code Copilot and Cursor load skills per-project. To make a skill available globally without cloning into every project, **clone once and symlink**:
```bash
# 1. Clone once to a central location
git clone https://github.com/FrancyJGLisboa/agent-skill-creator.git ~/agent-skills/agent-skill-creator
# 2. In any project, create a symlink (pick your platform):
# VS Code with GitHub Copilot
mkdir -p .github/skills && ln -s ~/agent-skills/agent-skill-creator .github/skills/agent-skill-creator
# Cursor
mkdir -p .cursor/rules && ln -s ~/agent-skills/agent-skill-creator .cursor/rules/agent-skill-creator
# Windsurf
mkdir -p .windsurf/skills && ln -s ~/agent-skills/agent-skill-creator .windsurf/skills/agent-skill-creator
```
To automate this for every project, add an alias to your shell profile (`~/.bashrc` or `~/.zshrc`):
```bash
# Add to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc (pick your platform):
alias install-skills='mkdir -p .github/skills && ln -s ~/agent-skills/agent-skill-creator .github/skills/agent-skill-creator'
```
Then in any project, run `install-skills` once. Updates propagate automatically — `cd ~/agent-skills/agent-skill-creator && git pull` updates every project at once.
