Enforce brainstorming workflow with hard gates and process flow

Browse Source 
The brainstorming skill described a process but didn't enforce it. Models
would skip the design phase and jump straight to implementation skills
like frontend-design, or collapse the entire brainstorming process into
a single text block.

Changes to brainstorming skill:
- Add HARD-GATE: no implementation until design is approved
- Add explicit checklist that maps to task items
- Add graphviz process flow with writing-plans as terminal state
- Add anti-pattern callout for "too simple to need a design"
- Scale design sections by section complexity, not project complexity
- Make writing-plans the only valid next skill after brainstorming

Changes to using-superpowers skill:
- Add EnterPlanMode intercept to workflow graph
- Route plan mode attempts through brainstorming skill instead

Tested with claude -p --plugin-dir across three variants (no skill,
original skill, updated skill) to verify behavioral compliance.
