feat: add Devin CLI support

Devin CLI's `devin plugins install obra/superpowers` fails today because the
repo has no `.devin-plugin/plugin.json` manifest. Add the manifest (skills are
auto-discovered from the co-located skills/ directory), a Devin tool mapping
linked from using-superpowers' Platform Adaptation section, a README install
section, version tracking in .version-bump.json, a Codex-sync exclude for the
new dotdir, and a CI-safe test mirroring the kimi/antigravity test style.

Bootstrap rides Devin's native skill surfacing: every installed skill's
name + description is injected into the system prompt at session start with a
standing instruction to invoke matching skills via the native skill tool.
Acceptance test ("Let's make a react todo list") passes in a clean session:
using-superpowers and brainstorming auto-trigger before any code is written.

# Devin CLI Tool Mapping
Skills speak in actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"). On Devin CLI these resolve to the tools below.
| Action skills request | Devin CLI equivalent |
| --- | --- |
| Invoke a skill | The native `skill` tool (skills also appear as `/superpowers:<skill>` slash commands) |
| Dispatch a subagent (`Subagent (general-purpose):` template) | `run_subagent` with the `subagent_general` profile; use `subagent_explore` for read-only exploration |
| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | `todo_write` |
| Ask the user / present options | `ask_user_question` (native multiple-choice prompts; fall back to plain text in non-interactive mode) |
## Subagents
`run_subagent` subagents are stateless and cannot ask clarifying questions — front-load the full context and exact instructions in the task prompt, as the subagent-driven-development templates already do. Run independent tasks in parallel with `is_background: true`; keep dependent tasks sequential.
## File, shell, and search tools
Devin CLI exposes native tools for reading, writing, and editing files, running shell commands, and searching (grep/glob). Exact tool names can vary by session mode — use whichever file/shell/search tools your session exposes rather than names remembered from another harness.
