feat: Adds AI skills to migrate from RunUO (#2366)
## Summary

Adds comprehensive RunUO → ModernUO migration documentation and Claude AI skills to help shard owners and script authors convert RunUO 2.7 code to ModernUO.

- **10 migration skills** (`dev-docs/claude-skills/migrate-from-runuo/`) — system-by-system conversion guides (foundation, serialization, timers, gumps, packets, property lists, commands/events, persistence, items/mobiles, systems/engines)
- **12 reference docs** (`dev-docs/runuo-migration-docs/`) — deep-reference with before/after examples, API mapping tables, edge cases, and gotchas
- **Updated existing skills** — `modernuo-timers`, `modernuo-serialization`, and `modernuo-threading` now document that `Serialize()` runs on background threads and timers are not thread-safe
- **Updated `CLAUDE.md`** — added migration skill lookup table

### Key migration patterns covered
- Manual `Serialize()`/`Deserialize()` → source-generated `[SerializableField]`
- `Packet` class hierarchy → static `SpanWriter`/`SpanReader` methods
- `Timer` subclasses → `TimerExecutionToken` fire-and-forget
- `Gump` → `StaticGump<T>`/`DynamicGump` with builders
- `EventSink.WorldSave` → `GenericPersistence`
- `ObjectPropertyList` → `IPropertyList` with string hole rules
- Universal changes: naming (`m_` → `_`), `[Constructable]` → `[Constructible]`, logging, spatial queries

name description
migrate-commands-events Trigger: when converting RunUO command registration, EventSink handlers, or event delegate patterns. Covers: event name changes, delegate removal, Configure vs Initialize.

RunUO -> ModernUO Commands & Events Migration

When This Activates

  • Converting EventSink subscriptions
  • Converting event handler signatures
  • Moving from Initialize() to Configure()
  • Converting WorldSave/WorldLoad events to GenericPersistence

Conversion Steps

  1. Change Initialize() to Configure() for event registration
  2. Remove delegate constructors: new LoginEventHandler(OnLogin) -> OnLogin
  3. Rename events: Login -> Connected, Logout -> Disconnected
  4. Update signatures: OnLogin(LoginEventArgs e) -> OnConnected(Mobile m)
  5. WorldSave persistence -> convert to GenericPersistence (see migrate-persistence skill)

Event Mapping

RunUO ModernUO
EventSink.Login EventSink.Connected (Action)
EventSink.Logout EventSink.Disconnected (Action)
EventSink.WorldSave EventSink.WorldSave (Action -- no args)
EventSink.Crashed EventSink.ServerCrashed
new XXXEventHandler(method) method (direct reference)

Commands (Minimal Changes)

Commands use the same CommandSystem.Register() API. Main change: use Configure() for registration.
