feat(skills): wire on_complete into terminal steps; add full customize.toml comments (#2290)

All 16 bare workflow customize.toml files now have the same thorough comment
block as the well-documented ones, with skill-specific on_complete descriptions
that name the exact terminal step and exit condition.

on_complete is now executed at the true end of each workflow's terminal step
rather than lazily referenced in SKILL.md:

- Linear workflows: ## On Complete block appended to the final step file
  (create-prd step-12, create-ux-design step-14, create-architecture step-08,
  generate-project-context step-03, check-implementation-readiness step-06,
  epics-and-stories step-04, all three research step-06 files, prfaq verdict,
  document-project both sub-workflow instruction files)
- Multi-path workflows: on_complete inline on each true exit path only
  (edit-prd fires on [S] Summary and [X] Exit, not on [V] Validate or [E] Edit;
  validate-prd fires on [X] Exit only, not on [R], [E], or [F])
- Inline XML workflows: <action> tag at the close of the final step
  (correct-course step-6, create-story step-6, retrospective step-12,
  qa-generate-e2e-tests appended to SKILL.md)
