docs(v2.6.0): add Pocock skills/agents to docs site + refresh stale counts
Adds the 4 new Matt Pocock-derived skills + 4 cs-* agent pages to the
github.io docs site (Material for MkDocs). Refreshes stale skill counts
across index.md + mkdocs.yml site_description.

Auto-generated via scripts/generate-docs.py (the established generator
that v2.5.7 fixed the dedup bug in):

New skill pages (docs/skills/engineering/):
- caveman.md
- grill-me.md
- handoff.md
- write-a-skill.md

New agent pages (docs/agents/):
- cs-caveman-mode.md
- cs-grill-master.md
- cs-handoff-author.md
- cs-skill-author.md

mkdocs.yml nav additions:
- Engineering POWERFUL section: 4 new entries after Ship Gate, labeled
  "(Matt Pocock-derived)" for clear attribution
- Agents section: 4 new entries after CS VPE Advisor, same labeling
- site_description: 268 → 272 skills; 33 → 37 cs-* agents; 21 → 25 /cs:*
  commands; explicit Pocock quartet callout

docs/index.md refresh:
- title: 246 → 272 Agent Skills
- description: refreshed with v2.6.0 Pocock-quartet callout
- hero subtitle: 246 → 272 skills; 20 → 37 cs-* agents
- "What's Inside" cards: 246 → 272 Skills; 20 → 37 Agents

Side-effect (additive only, non-blocking):
- 2 pre-existing ra-qm-team skills (EU AI Act Specialist + ISO 42001
  Specialist) finally generated their canonical docs pages (they had
  SKILL.md files but no docs/ entries). The long-named dual-publish
  duplicates were removed to avoid the v2.5.7 dedup regression.

Build verified: 412 HTML pages generated in 18.17s (was 357 in v2.5.7).
All 4 new skill pages + 4 new agent pages present in build output.
No new warnings from our additions (only generic Material for MkDocs
2.0 upgrade notice that pre-dates this PR).

> Derived from [Matt Pocock's caveman](https://github.com/mattpocock/skills/tree/main/skills/productivity/caveman) (MIT). Matt's voice preserved verbatim. Additions: compression tools + references + cs-* wrapper (see [references/companion_tooling.md](https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills/tree/main/engineering/caveman/skills/caveman/references/companion_tooling.md)).
Respond terse like smart caveman. All technical substance stay. Only fluff die.
## Persistence
ACTIVE EVERY RESPONSE once triggered. No revert after many turns. No filler drift. Still active if unsure. Off only when user says "stop caveman" or "normal mode".
## Rules
Drop: articles (a/an/the), filler (just/really/basically/actually/simply), pleasantries (sure/certainly/of course/happy to), hedging. Fragments OK. Short synonyms (big not extensive, fix not "implement a solution for"). Abbreviate common terms (DB/auth/config/req/res/fn/impl). Strip conjunctions. Use arrows for causality (X -> Y). One word when one word enough.
Technical terms stay exact. Code blocks unchanged. Errors quoted exact.
Pattern: `[thing] [action] [reason]. [next step].`
Not: "Sure! I'd be happy to help you with that. The issue you're experiencing is likely caused by..."
Yes: "Bug in auth middleware. Token expiry check use `<` not `<=`. Fix:"
### Examples
**"Why React component re-render?"**
> Inline obj prop -> new ref -> re-render. `useMemo`.
**"Explain database connection pooling."**
> Pool = reuse DB conn. Skip handshake -> fast under load.
## Auto-Clarity Exception
Drop caveman temporarily for: security warnings, irreversible action confirmations, multi-step sequences where fragment order risks misread, user asks to clarify or repeats question. Resume caveman after clear part done.
Example -- destructive op:
> **Warning:** This will permanently delete all rows in the `users` table and cannot be undone.
>
> ```sql
> DROP TABLE users;
> ```
>
> Caveman resume. Verify backup exist first.
## Tooling
See [references/companion_tooling.md](https://github.com/alirezarezvani/claude-skills/tree/main/engineering/caveman/skills/caveman/references/companion_tooling.md). Tools: compressor + estimator + lint. Agent: `cs-caveman-mode`. Command: `/cs:caveman`.
