fix(skillopt): emit proposed.md in no-mutate mode (#2635)

Takeover of #2719 (fork head; rebased onto origin/master).

- writeProposed now writes both best.md (current-best pointer) and
  proposed.md (stable human-review artifact); returns the proposal path.
- Orchestrator reports the real proposed.md path for accepted --no-mutate runs.
- Tutorial updated; llms bundles regenerated (no content drift — tutorial
  is not inlined in the bundle).

**For a skill that ships with gbrain** (anything under the gbrain repo's own
`skills/`): SkillOpt refuses to overwrite it by default and writes the winner to
`skills/<name>/skillopt/best.md` instead, so an optimization pass can never
silently mutate a skill other people depend on. Two ways to handle that:
`skills/<name>/skillopt/proposed.md` instead (while keeping `best.md` as the
optimizer's current-best pointer), so an optimization pass can never silently
mutate a skill other people depend on. Two ways to handle that:
```bash
# See the proposed improvement without touching SKILL.md (works for ANY skill):
gbrain skillopt meeting-prep --split 1:1:1 --no-mutate
# → writes skills/meeting-prep/skillopt/best.md (the proposed rewrite), prints its path. Copy what you want.
# → writes skills/meeting-prep/skillopt/proposed.md, updates best.md, and prints the proposal path.
# Actually rewrite a bundled skill (explicit opt-in + an independent held-out set):
gbrain skillopt brain-ops --split 1:1:1 --allow-mutate-bundled \
