mewwts 8fb861ea6e feat(gateway/slack): support channel_skill_bindings
Extends the existing channel_skill_bindings mechanism (previously
Discord-only) to Slack, so a channel or DM can auto-load one or more
skills at session start without relying on the model's skill selector
for every short reply.

Motivation: Mats's German flashcards DM pushes a cron-driven card
5x/day; he responds with one-word guesses like 'work'. Previously each
reply required the main agent to decide whether to load german-flashcards
(full opus turn just to pick a skill). With the binding configured per
Slack channel, the skill is injected at session start and grading runs
directly.

Changes:
- Extract resolve_channel_skills() from DiscordAdapter._resolve_channel_skills
  into gateway.platforms.base (now shared across adapters).
- DiscordAdapter._resolve_channel_skills delegates to the shared helper
  (behavior preserved — existing test suite still passes unchanged).
- SlackAdapter: resolve channel_skill_bindings on each message and attach
  auto_skill to MessageEvent. gateway/run.py already handles auto-skill
  injection on new sessions; this just wires Slack through it.
- gateway/config.py: accept channel_skill_bindings in slack: block of
  config.yaml (was Discord-only).
- Tests: new tests/gateway/test_slack_channel_skills.py with 11 cases
  covering DM/thread/parent resolution, single-vs-list skills, dedup,
  malformed entries. Discord suite unchanged.
- Docs: add 'Per-Channel Skill Bindings' section to Slack user guide.

Config example:
  slack:
    channel_skill_bindings:
      - id: "D0ATH9TQ0G6"
        skills: ["german-flashcards"]
