docs: add requirements section and hooks field warning

- Add minimum Claude Code version requirement (v2.1.0+)
- Document hooks auto-loading behavior to prevent flip-flop cycles
- Add flip-flop history table to PLUGIN_SCHEMA_NOTES.md
- Reference issues #29, #52, #103 that were caused by this confusion
- Explain that regression test now prevents reintroduction

This documentation should prevent future confusion about whether to
add/remove the hooks field from plugin.json.

## Requirements
### Claude Code CLI Version
**Minimum version: v2.1.0 or later**
This plugin requires Claude Code CLI v2.1.0+ due to changes in how the plugin system handles hooks.
Check your version:
```bash
claude --version
```
### Important: Hooks Auto-Loading Behavior
> ⚠️ **For Contributors:** Do NOT add a `"hooks"` field to `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`. This is enforced by a regression test.
Claude Code v2.1+ **automatically loads** `hooks/hooks.json` from any installed plugin by convention. Explicitly declaring it in `plugin.json` causes a duplicate detection error:
```
Duplicate hooks file detected: ./hooks/hooks.json resolves to already-loaded file
```
**History:** This has caused repeated fix/revert cycles in this repo ([#29](https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code/issues/29), [#52](https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code/issues/52), [#103](https://github.com/affaan-m/everything-claude-code/issues/103)). The behavior changed between Claude Code versions, leading to confusion. We now have a regression test to prevent this from being reintroduced.
