Log Message:
.claude/skills: add synchronet-smbutils

Migrated from the personal ~/.claude/skills/synchronet-smbutils/
version. The skill covers the three SMB-level command-line tools that
operate on Synchronet Message Base files directly (below the level of
the BBS itself or the JS MsgBase API):

  * smbutil  -- inspect/list/view/import/pack/renumber/lock/unlock
               operations on a base, plus the verbose-dump V command
               and the per-user mail-extraction recipe.
  * chksmb   -- integrity scan; reports header / data / index / hash
               anomalies without modifying anything.
  * fixsmb   -- destructive repair that rebuilds indexes/hashes and
               can renumber; covers when (not) to reach for it.

Includes the SMB on-disk format references (wiki ref:smb, the 1993
historical spec, the SMBLIB C source), the filespec convention shared
by all three tools (path with no extension, or with a specific .shd /
.sdt / .sid / .sha component), the [n] index-pitfall warning, a full
investigate-a-corrupt-base workflow, and the boundary on when to use
these tools versus the in-BBS interface or the MsgBase JS API.

Only one host-specific bit needed scrubbing: an example Windows install
path was S:\sbbs\ctrl (the personal versions drive letter); the
in-repo version uses the conventional C:\sbbs\ctrl plus the Git
Bash / MSYS mount-point form. Otherwise the personal SKILL.md was
already host-agnostic.
