refactor: split emergent-patterns into focused problem-solving skills

Browse Source 
**Restructure:**
- Split detecting-emergent-patterns (216 lines) into 5 focused skills (~60 lines each)
- Move tracing-lineages to skills/research/ (better category fit)
- Create skills/problem-solving/ category

**New problem-solving skills:**
- simplification-cascades: Find one insight that eliminates multiple components
- collision-zone-thinking: Force unrelated concepts together for breakthroughs
- meta-pattern-recognition: Spot patterns in 3+ domains
- inversion-exercise: Flip assumptions to reveal alternatives
- scale-game: Test at extremes to find fundamental limits
- when-stuck: Dispatch skill that maps stuck-symptoms to techniques

**Improvements:**
- Symptom-based when_to_use (what you'd actually think/feel)
- Quick reference tables for rapid scanning
- Pattern-based triggers (not exact phrase matching)
- Cross-references from brainstorming for discoverability

Each skill now: scannable in 30 seconds, applicable immediately, focused on one technique.
