fix: delete AskUserQuestion fallback (root cause of forever war)
The /plan-eng-review skill failed to fire AskUserQuestion on a real
plan review and surfaced 4 calibration decisions via prose instead.
Investigation traced this to a "fallback when neither variant is
callable" clause in the preamble that the model rationalizes around
as a general escape hatch from "fanning out round-trip AUQs," even
when an AUQ variant IS callable. Codex review confirmed the fallback
exists in 8 inline sites with 2 surviving escape hatches the original
narrowing missed (a "genuinely trivial" exception duplicated across
all 4 plan-* templates, and a "outside plan mode, output as prose
and stop" branch in the preamble itself).

Net deletion in skill text. Closes both branches of the deleted
fallback (plan-file write AND prose-and-stop) and the trivial-fix
exception with a single hard rule:

  If no AskUserQuestion variant appears in your tool list, this
  skill is BLOCKED. Stop, report `BLOCKED — AskUserQuestion
  unavailable`, and wait for the user.

Honest about being a model directive, not a runtime guard — none of
the PTY harness helpers enforce BLOCKED today. The architectural
improvement is that the model has fewer alternatives to obey it
against. Runtime enforcement is a follow-up TODO.

Sources changed:
- scripts/resolvers/preamble/generate-ask-user-format.ts: delete both
  fallback branches; replace with 1-line BLOCKED rule
- scripts/resolvers/preamble/generate-completion-status.ts: delete
  fallback in generatePlanModeInfo
- plan-eng-review/SKILL.md.tmpl: delete fallback at Step 0 + Sections
  1-4 (5 instances) + delete trivial-fix exception
- office-hours/SKILL.md.tmpl: delete fallback in approach-selection
- plan-ceo-review/SKILL.md.tmpl: delete trivial-fix exception
- plan-design-review/SKILL.md.tmpl: delete trivial-fix exception
- plan-devex-review/SKILL.md.tmpl: delete trivial-fix exception

Generated SKILL.md regen lands in a follow-up commit per the bisect
convention (template changes separate from regenerated output).
