Miha Kralj 060649192f docs: remove C# Implementation Considerations sections, clean up temp scripts, reorganize test files
- Remove 'C# Implementation Considerations' sections from 34 indicator .md files
- Delete 29 temp PowerShell scripts (_fix_mojibake.ps1, _hex_scan.ps1, etc.)
- Move test files into tests/ subdirectories for consistent project structure
- Add trader-focused bullet points to indicator documentation
