feat(skills): replace xitter with xurl — the official X API CLI (#12303)

Swap the social-media/xitter skill (third-party wrapper around
Infatoshi/x-cli) for a new social-media/xurl skill wrapping
xdevplatform/xurl — the official X API CLI from the X developer
platform team.

Why:
- xurl is officially maintained by the X dev platform team
- OAuth 2.0 PKCE with auto-refresh + multi-app / multi-user support
  (vs. xitter's 5-env-var OAuth 1.0a + single account)
- Credentials stored in ~/.xurl managed by xurl itself — no manual
  env var juggling for users
- Substantially larger API surface: DMs, follows, blocks, mutes,
  media upload, streaming, and raw v2 endpoint access
- Ships stronger agent-safety guardrails (forbidden-flag list,
  no --verbose in agent mode, never-read-~/.xurl rule)

Adaptation:
- Ported the openclaw SKILL.md (which the xdevplatform team seeded)
  to Hermes frontmatter conventions (prerequisites.commands, platforms,
  metadata.hermes.tags/homepage) — dropped openclaw-specific metadata
- Added a Hermes-oriented one-time user setup section so the agent
  knows to direct the user to run auth commands themselves, never
  execute them with inline secrets
- Preserved the mandatory secret-safety rules verbatim
- Attribution block credits xdevplatform, openclaw, and the Hermes
  port

Docs: updated website/docs/reference/skills-catalog.md to replace
the xitter row with xurl.
