Adds a new offers skill (1.0.0) covering offer construction — the thing you actually sell, not the page that sells it. Frames the discipline around two existing frameworks: the Value Equation (Dream Outcome x Perceived Likelihood / Time Delay x Effort, originally Hormozi, now standard across direct response and creator-economy training) and the six-component anatomy of a complete offer (core + bonuses + guarantee + scarcity + name + price/payment structure). Self-scoped explicitly: best for services, agency retainers, courses, coaching, info products, high-ticket B2B, and direct response. Less load-bearing for pure self-serve SaaS where pricing does more work.

Versions bumped: - Repo: 2.4.2 -> 2.5.0 (new skill = minor) - Plugin description: 44 -> 45 skills, called out "offer design" validate-skills.sh passes 45/45.
