Add 6 Polymarket trading skills with paper trading engine

Composable Agent Skills (SKILL.md format) for Polymarket prediction market
trading. Includes scanner, analyzer, monitor, paper trader, strategy advisor,
and live executor. All tested against live Polymarket APIs. Security audited
with all HIGH/MEDIUM findings resolved.
