Clarify that Skill tool loads skill content directly

Fixes pattern where Claude would invoke a skill then try to Read the
file separately. The Skill tool already provides the content.

- Add "How to Access Skills" section to using-superpowers
- Change "read the skill" → "invoke the skill"
- Commands now use fully qualified names (superpowers:brainstorming etc)

If you think there is even a 1% chance a skill might apply to what you are doing, you ABSOLUTELY MUST read the skill.
If you think there is even a 1% chance a skill might apply to what you are doing, you ABSOLUTELY MUST invoke the skill.
IF A SKILL APPLIES TO YOUR TASK, YOU DO NOT HAVE A CHOICE. YOU MUST USE IT.
This is not negotiable. This is not optional. You cannot rationalize your way out of this.

## How to Access Skills
**In Claude Code:** Use the `Skill` tool. When you invoke a skill, its content is loaded and presented to you—follow it directly. Never use the Read tool on skill files.
**In other environments:** Check your platform's documentation for how skills are loaded.
