feat(release)!: rename plugin and repo from coord to repo-mailbox

The old name said that something was coordinated, but not what the thing
was. The new one names what it is, reusing the vocabulary the code and
docs already use throughout: mailbox, inbox, archive, broadcast.

Renamed: Forgejo repo (open/coord -> open/repo-mailbox, old URL
redirects), plugin manifest name, package name, README title and badge,
CLAUDE.md heading and release command.

BREAKING CHANGE: the skill is invoked as /repo-mailbox:coord-send rather
than /coord:coord-send, and the plugin must be reinstalled under its new
name.

Deliberately unchanged: the CLI (coord-send.sh, coord-inbox.sh,
coord-done.sh, coord-selftest.sh), the skill name coord-send, the mailbox
root ~/.claude/coord/, and CLAUDE_COORD_DIR. Those name the transport
protocol, not the product; renaming them would migrate live mailbox data
and break message history in every participating repo for no gain.

Selftest unchanged at 70/70 -- the engine was not touched.

# Coord
# repo-mailbox
> Formerly `coord` (renamed in v0.3.0). The plugin is now `repo-mailbox`; the CLI (`coord-send`, `coord-inbox`, `coord-done`), the mailbox root `~/.claude/coord/` and `CLAUDE_COORD_DIR` keep their names — they are the transport protocol, not the product.
> A local mailbox for coordination between Claude Code sessions in different repositories. Session A in repo X leaves a message for repo Y; the next session in repo Y gets it injected as context at startup. Local, private, no network, no SaaS.

When you work with an AI coding agent across several repositories, the sessions are islands. A decision made in repo X often matters to repo Y — a shared spec changed, a bug another repo depends on got fixed, a gate was re-pinned. Without a channel, you are the messenger: you remember to mention it in the next session, or it gets lost.
Coord is that channel, reduced to the simplest thing that works: a directory of Markdown files on your own disk. Sending is writing a file; receiving is a SessionStart hook that injects your repo's pending messages as context. No server, no daemon, no network, no accounts.

**Transport, not state.** A coord message is a notice, not a source of truth. The durable record of any decision lives in the owning repo (its docs, its git history). Messages point at that record; they never replace it.
