Brian Madison d4466cc341 fix(skills): address PR review feedback on resolver and installer
Fixes four issues flagged by CodeRabbit on PR #2282:

- SKILL.md conventions now define {skill-root} (used in the resolver
  command on line 16 but previously undefined alongside {project-root}
  and {skill-name}).
- resolve_customization.py: missing or unparsable customize.yaml now
  exits non-zero with an error instead of silently returning {}, so
  the SKILL.md fallback path correctly kicks in on bad --skill paths.
- resolve_customization.py: non-agent top-level keys (e.g. workflow:,
  config:) now deep-merge per the documented "other tables: deep merge"
  rule. Previously override replaced these wholesale, losing unrelated
  fields the user didn't touch.
- installer.js _installSharedScripts: wipe _bmad/scripts/ before copy
  so files removed or renamed in src/scripts (e.g. the
  resolve-customization.js -> resolve_customization.py rename) don't
  linger and get tracked as installed. Also fail fast if src/scripts/
  is missing.

BMad CLI Tool

Installing external repo BMad official modules

For external official modules to be discoverable during install, ensure an entry for the external repo is added to external-official-modules.yaml.

For community modules - this will be handled in a different way. This file is only for registration of modules under the bmad-code-org.

Post-Install Notes

Modules can display setup guidance to users after configuration is collected during npx bmad-method install. Notes are defined in the module's own module.yaml — no changes to the installer are needed.

Simple Format

Always displayed after the module is configured:

post-install-notes: |
  Thank you for choosing the XYZ Cool Module
  For Support about this Module call 555-1212  

Conditional Format

Display different messages based on a config question's answer:

post-install-notes:
  config_key_name:
    value1: |
      Instructions for value1...      
    value2: |
      Instructions for value2...      

Values without an entry (e.g., none) display nothing. Multiple config keys can each have their own conditional notes.

Example: TEA Module

The TEA module uses the conditional format keyed on tea_browser_automation:

post-install-notes:
  tea_browser_automation:
    cli: |
      Playwright CLI Setup:
        npm install -g @playwright/cli@latest
        playwright-cli install --skills      
    mcp: |
      Playwright MCP Setup (two servers):
        1. playwright    — npx @playwright/mcp@latest
        2. playwright-test — npx playwright run-test-mcp-server      
    auto: |
      Playwright CLI Setup:
        ...
      Playwright MCP Setup (two servers):
        ...      

When a user selects auto, they see both CLI and MCP instructions. When they select none, nothing is shown.
