Fix review issues: front matter, headings, consistency, typos

- Move title and last_modified to YAML front matter (all policy docs)
- Make all document sections H1, subsections H2
- Update version rule to reference front matter format
- Fix "our" → "your" typo in Go styleguide
- Fix Python styleguide numbering (2. → 1.)
- Fix README: "flat collection" → accurate description, remove stale TODO
- Remove Makefile items from code styleguides (repo stuff, not code),
  add note linking to Repository Policies
- Change zerolog → slog in Go styleguide
- Fix JS styleguide npm reference: both work, but use make targets
- Drop .json from healthcheck path, add JSON content-type requirement
- Add Author/License to Go HTTP Server Conventions
- Convert hyperlinks to backtick URLs in checklists for consistency
- Add version/front matter to both checklists
