Dan Velton a4938e2aa7 Add napkin plugin: visual whiteboard collaboration for Copilot CLI (#929)
* Add napkin plugin: visual whiteboard collaboration for Copilot CLI

Napkin opens an interactive HTML whiteboard in the user's browser where
they can draw, sketch, and add sticky notes. When ready, they click
'Share with Copilot' which exports a PNG snapshot. The Copilot CLI agent
reads the PNG via the view tool, and the multimodal AI model interprets
the drawings, spatial layout, and text content — responding
conversationally as a collaborator.

Built for non-technical users: lawyers, PMs, business stakeholders,
designers, and anyone who thinks better visually.

Includes:
- Self-contained HTML whiteboard (zero external dependencies)
- Shape recognition (wobbly shapes snap to clean versions)
- Freehand drawing, sticky notes, arrows, text labels
- Auto-save to localStorage
- SKILL.md with agent instructions
- SVG visual guides for step-by-step README documentation
- Plugin manifest for Copilot CLI installation

* Fix review feedback: roundRect compat, cross-platform shortcuts, eraser undo

- Add safeRoundRect() fallback for browsers without CanvasRenderingContext2D.roundRect()
- Update undo/redo button titles to show Ctrl/Cmd instead of Mac-only Cmd
- Fix eraser undo by capturing state before first erase mutation per gesture

* Add missing Line (L) and Eraser (E) keyboard shortcuts to README

The in-app shortcuts panel and keyMap handler both support L for Line
and E for Eraser, but the README keyboard shortcuts table was missing
both entries. Adds them to match the actual implementation.

* Combine docs/ and templates/ into assets/ per agentskills.io spec

Moves skills/napkin/docs/*.svg and skills/napkin/templates/napkin.html
into skills/napkin/assets/ to align with the Agent Skills specification.
Updates all path references in SKILL.md, README.md, and generated docs.

Addresses review feedback from PR #929.
