fix(gateway): match disabled/optional skills by frontmatter slug, not dir name (#18753)
_check_unavailable_skill is meant to turn a typed "/foo" command that
doesn't resolve into a specific hint — "disabled, enable with hermes
skills config" or "available but not installed, install with hermes
skills install …" — instead of the generic "unknown command" reply.

It was doing the match with `skill_md.parent.name.lower().replace("_", "-")`,
comparing that to the typed command. For every skill whose directory name
drifted from its declared frontmatter `name:`, that comparison failed and
the user got the unhelpful generic path. On a standard install today 19
skills have this drift, e.g.:

  dir: mlops/stable-diffusion
  frontmatter: name: Stable Diffusion Image Generation
  registered slug (what the user types): /stable-diffusion-image-generation

  dir: mlops/qdrant
  frontmatter: name: Qdrant Vector Search
  registered slug: /qdrant-vector-search

  dir: mlops/flash-attention
  frontmatter: name: Optimizing Attention Flash
  registered slug: /optimizing-attention-flash

In every case, _check_unavailable_skill would fall through because
"stable-diffusion" != "stable-diffusion-image-generation", even with the
skill sitting right there on disk.

Fix: extract a small `_skill_slug_from_frontmatter` helper that reads the
SKILL.md frontmatter and normalizes exactly like scan_skill_commands
(lower, spaces/underscores → hyphens, strip non-[a-z0-9-], collapse
runs of hyphens, strip edges). Use it in both the
disabled-skills branch and the optional-skills branch. The disabled-set
membership check now uses the declared frontmatter name (which is what
`hermes skills config` writes into skills.disabled / platform_disabled),
not the slug.

Tests: five cases in tests/gateway/test_unavailable_skill_hint.py —
the drift case for the disabled branch, unknown-command negative,
matched-but-not-disabled negative, non-alnum stripping, and the drift
case for the optional-skills branch. All five fail against main and
pass with the fix.

"""Tests for gateway.run._check_unavailable_skill.
Regression coverage for the dir-name-vs-frontmatter-name drift bug.
The hint function used to compare the skill's parent-directory name
against the typed command and the disabled list. That silently missed
every skill whose directory name differs from its declared frontmatter
name (~19 skills on a standard install), so users typing a real slug
like ``/stable-diffusion-image-generation`` got a generic "unknown
command" response instead of the intended "disabled — enable with …"
or "not installed — install with …" hint.
These tests pin the fixed behavior:
* Slug is derived from the frontmatter ``name:`` (exactly matching
:func:`agent.skill_commands.scan_skill_commands`), so the slug differs
from the directory name when the declared name is multi-word.
* ``disabled`` membership is checked by the declared name, because that
is what :func:`hermes_cli.skills_config.save_disabled_skills` stores.
