fix(docs): correct Score 5 page reference and verify added figures (F-3)

Follow-up to f2c54fa. Per-page extraction shows the sycophancy rubric spans
pp. 9-10 of the Appendix, with Score 5 on p.10 — the first pass wrote
"page 9" in both SKILL.md and interaction-report.md.

Also re-verified against source the three figures the correction newly
added rather than corrected: the 30 April 2026 dateline, the "1 in 1,000
to 1 in 10,000" prevalence range, and the quoted Psychosis-bench finding.
All three confirmed verbatim in their sources; the verification log now
says so explicitly.

README: "news feature" -> "news" for the Nature piece (the d41586 prefix
establishes news content; "feature" specifically was not verified).

This applies to the figures newly *added* during the correction, not only to
the ones corrected. Each was re-checked against source before shipping: the
30 April 2026 publication date (dateline in the page source), the "1 in 1,000

page source), and the quoted Psychosis-bench finding (verbatim in the arXiv
