Manfred Riem 40e48ed22c feat: add category and effect as first-class fields in extension schema (#2899)
* feat: add category and effect as first-class fields in extension schema

Add `category` and `effect` as optional fields in the extension schema
(`extension.yml`) and community catalog (`catalog.community.json`).

Schema changes:
- Valid categories: docs, code, process, integration, visibility
- Valid effects: read-only, read-write
- Both fields are optional (backward-compatible with existing extensions)
- Validation raises ValidationError for invalid values when present

Propagation:
- Added `category` and `effect` to all 108 entries in catalog.community.json
  (populated from the existing docs/community/extensions.md table)
- Updated extension template with commented category/effect fields
- Updated add-community-extension skill with new JSON template fields
- Updated `specify extension info` CLI output to display category/effect
- Added properties to ExtensionManifest class

Tests:
- test_valid_category: all 5 category values pass
- test_valid_effect: both effect values pass
- test_invalid_category: invalid value raises ValidationError
- test_invalid_effect: invalid value raises ValidationError
- test_category_and_effect_optional: omitting fields still works

Closes #2874

* fix: make category free-form, keep effect validated

Category is a free-form string (only validated as non-empty when present),
while effect remains restricted to 'read-only' or 'read-write'.

* fix: address PR review feedback

- Add type guard before 'in' check for effect to prevent TypeError on
  unhashable YAML values (list/dict)
- Comment out category/effect in template so authors must opt in
- Use VALID_EFFECTS constant in test instead of hard-coded values
