Subject: [PATCH] Add issue templates and disable blank issues

Four templates: bug report (with environment table and platform-vs-plugin
gate), feature request (with problem statement and core-appropriateness
question), IDE/platform support request, and a config that disables
blank issues and redirects questions to Discord.

+## Is this a Superpowers issue or a platform issue?
+<!-- Superpowers is a plugin. Some reported "bugs" are actually issues
+     in the underlying platform or model. If you're not sure, try
+     reproducing without Superpowers installed.
+
+     If the problem persists without Superpowers, file the issue with
+     your platform instead. -->

+- [ ] I confirmed this issue does not occur without Superpowers installed

+## Actual behavior

+## Debug log or conversation transcript
+<!-- A debug log or conversation transcript showing the issue is the
+     single most helpful thing you can include. Without one, we're
+     guessing. Screenshots of error output are also useful. -->
