Alex Verkhovsky 411e8c71cd refactor(catalog): rename after/before columns to preceded-by/followed-by
The bare prepositions `after` and `before` had no subject anchor, leaving
the dependency direction ambiguous: "X has Y in its `after` column" reads
plausibly as either "Y comes after X" or "X comes after Y". An LLM
catalog consumer just got the direction wrong because of this.

`preceded-by` / `followed-by` are passive-voice participles whose grammar
locks the subject (the skill in this row) and forces a single reading:
"X is preceded by Y" can only mean Y comes first.

Rename applied to:
- module-help.csv headers (bmm-skills, core-skills)
- bmad-help SKILL.md schema doc + descriptions
- installer.js mergeModuleHelpCatalogs header string
- plugin-resolver.js _buildSynthesizedHelpCsv header string
- bmad-manifest.json keys (bmad-product-brief, bmad-prfaq)
- distillate-format-reference.md example manifest

The separate `required` column continues to carry hard-gate semantics;
the renamed columns are pure soft sequencing hints, as already documented
in bmad-help.
