Re-vendor the canonical files from sneak/prompts at dd4027b (closes #213)

Linting and testing become the lint and test phases of the Dockerfile,
and the build stage depends on both. Dockerfile.lint, CHECK_EPOCH and
the tests that checked them are removed. Every docker build in script/
passes --no-cache, and script/cibuild runs script/bootstrap first. A
host without Go gets the go.mod version from script/install-go in
.tool/go, where script/fmt and script/fmt-check also look; fmt-check
reads only the Go files git lists. The image takes its version from the
VERSION build arg or git describe, dev without .git. This repo's own
entries follow the canonical content in .gitignore and .editorconfig.
The golangci-lint v2.14.0 findings are fixed. The rules in CLAUDE.md
move into AGENTS.md. IsDevVersion counts "unknown".
