feat(mcp): S5 — issue-kind guidance across all instruction surfaces

Plan #825 (T2 — Issues task_kind) shipped S1–S4 but its S5 docs slice
never landed, so every behavioral surface the plugin pushes to the agent
still described the pre-kind convention ("tag `issue`" on a create_note).
Result: agents fixed bugs without reaching for kind=issue and dumped the
work as logs on unrelated open tasks.

- _INSTRUCTIONS: rewrite the "record a problem" bullet to
  create_task(kind="issue") with symptom→cause→fix + arose_from_id /
  system_ids, and an explicit "not a work-log on an unrelated task"; add
  Issue + System to the hierarchy section.
- skills/systematic-debugging, verification: drop "tag `issue`" /
  create_note-issue, point at create_task(kind="issue").
- skills/using-scribe: add issues/systems to the entity list + reflex #6.
- hooks/scribe_static_context: fix → its own issue on the keyless floor.

Instance-agnostic, prose-only; no schema or tool-behavior change.
Pairs with always-on rule #118. Issue: #855.
