feat(humanizer): update action command templates [skip-docs]

Wave 5 Step 15. Threads --raw plumbing through all seven action command templates and adds a shape test covering structural plumbing plus help.md's plain-language vocabulary. - commands/fix.md: --raw flag parsed; fix-plan rendering groups by userActionLanguage; humanized title/description/recommendation are rendered verbatim from the cross-referenced scan envelope. - commands/rollback.md: terminology pass — "manifest" → "list of changes" in user-facing copy; the file name manifest.yaml is kept as the machine contract; --raw threaded through. - commands/plan.md: --raw forwarded to the planner-agent's prompt; agent now instructed to group actions by userImpactCategory and lead with userActionLanguage; bash block added for flag parsing. - commands/implement.md: --raw forwarded to the implementer-agent's prompt; progress-log lines now reference the humanized titles already present in the action plan. - commands/cleanup.md: --raw accepted as no-op (cleanup is file-management only, no findings prose); bash block added. - commands/help.md: full plain-language pass — "PreToolUse" and "frontmatter" jargon removed from user-facing copy; new vocabulary table surfaces the humanized userImpactCategory and userActionLanguage labels ("Configuration mistake", "Conflict", "Wasted tokens", "Missed opportunity", "Dead config" / "Fix this now", "Fix soon", "Fix when convenient", "Optional cleanup", "FYI"); --raw documented as global pass-through flag. - commands/interview.md: --raw accepted as no-op; "unused hooks" question phrased as "unused automation that runs at specific events" in user-facing copy. tests/commands/action-commands-shape.test.mjs (new, +6 tests, 780 → 786): - structural: bash block + Read tool + --raw/$ARGUMENTS plumbing across all 7 files - help.md vocabulary: ≥3 userImpactCategory labels and ≥3 userActionLanguage phrases present - help.md jargon: no bare "PreToolUse" or "frontmatter" in copy
