Add the shared markdown-naming gate and migrate utils' own docs
Markdown across every repo had accumulated a dozen ad-hoc names
(refactor_claude_todo.md x23, DESIGN_AUDIT_TODO.md, NEXT_SESSION,
HANDOFF, PLAN, SPEC) with nothing distinguishing a live task from a
finished record. An audit found docs asserting work was pending that
shipped months earlier, and one asserting completion while the work
was open.

Four namespaces now: README.md, CLAUDE*.md, DOCS*.md, TODO*.md. Task
files carry the literal "REMOVE ME AFTER FINISH" and are deleted when
the work lands.

Enforced bidirectionally -- a TODO without the marker fails, AND any
file carrying the marker that is not named TODO*.md fails. Without the
reverse rule a task can be renamed into the permanent namespace and
quietly live forever, which is the failure being fixed.

md_naming/ mirrors the file_length topology and imports its tables
(EXCLUDED_DIRS, THIRD_PARTY_REPOS, VENDORED_ANYWHERE, GENERATED_PATTERN)
rather than restating them, so the two gates cannot disagree about the
same file. 71 tests, 100% branch coverage.

stale.py warns on TODOs past 90 days but never fails: no machine can
prove a task is finished, so the honest mechanism is a nudge.

# The four markdown namespaces, enforced on push as well as at commit time.
# The local pre-commit hook can be skipped (a fresh clone that never ran
# `pre-commit install` has no hooks at all), so the convention needs a second
# gate that no one can forget to install.
#
# Deliberately a SEPARATE workflow from any release job: a badly named doc
# should fail lint, not block publishing an artifact.
