fix(mcp): disable MCP_SKILLS feature flag — source not mirrored

Closes #856.

MCP servers that expose resources (e.g. RepoPrompt) failed to load
their tools in the open build with:

    Error fetching tools/commands/resources:
    fetchMcpSkillsForClient is not a function

Root cause: scripts/build.ts set MCP_SKILLS: true, which made
feature('MCP_SKILLS') evaluate to true at build time. The guards
around the dynamic skill discovery path therefore stayed live. The
underlying source file src/skills/mcpSkills.ts is not mirrored into
the open tree, so the bundler fell back to its generic missing-module
stub — which only exports `default` for require()-style imports, not
the named `fetchMcpSkillsForClient` binding. At runtime the require
returned an object without that property, and calling it threw.

`openclaude mcp doctor` reported RepoPrompt as healthy because doctor
does not exercise the skills-fetch path.

Fix: flip MCP_SKILLS to false and move it into the "Disabled: missing
source" group. With the flag off, every `if (feature('MCP_SKILLS'))`
guard becomes a no-op at build time, the require() branch is dead
code, and MCP servers with resources load normally via the existing
`Promise.resolve([])` fallbacks already present at each call site.

Also adds scripts/feature-flags-source-guard.test.ts to fail fast if
MCP_SKILLS (or any future flag in the same category) is re-enabled
without the corresponding source file being mirrored first.

Verification:
  - Test fails on main, passes with this fix
  - `bun run build` produces a bundle with no
    `missing-module-stub:../../skills/mcpSkills.js` reference
  - Full `bun test` — 1222 pass / 12 fail (same pre-existing 12 as
    main; new test adds the +1 pass)
