Merge add-make-targets (dev Makefile + markdown formatting)

Adds a minimal Makefile wrapping the toolchain the way sneak's other
repos expose it:

- fmt        gofmt -w plus prettier (4-space tabs, proseWrap: always)
- fmt-check  fail if any Go or Markdown file is unformatted
- lint       golangci-lint run ./...
- test       go test ./...
- check      fmt-check + lint + test (the local pre-commit gate)

Running make fmt normalizes the four existing Markdown docs to the
shared prettier style (80-column proseWrap: always, aligned tables) —
a one-time reflow with no content change. The repo remains exempt from
the rest of the policy scaffold (no Dockerfile, CI, or REPO_POLICIES).
