Paul Bakaus 7d7f77d2ba Before/after split demos on skill pages + sidebar reorder
Two changes bundled:

1. Before/after split demos on every skill detail page.
   - loadCommandDemos() in sub-pages-data.js: dynamically imports each
     module in public/js/demos/commands (the same files the homepage
     uses), returning a { skillId: { id, caption, before, after } } map.
     Falls back to a warn-and-continue if a demo file can't be loaded
     so one bad demo doesn't break the whole generator.
   - buildSubPageData becomes async; caller in build-sub-pages.js
     awaits it.
   - Each skill object gets a .demo field (may be null for /shape).
   - renderSkillDemo() produces the .split-comparison markup matching
     the homepage: .split-container with .split-before + .split-after
     + .split-divider, plus Before/After labels and the caption. The
     block sits between the detail header and the editorial wrapper
     so readers see the visual before reading any prose.
   - sub-pages.css ports the core .split-* layout from main.css (the
     .slop-* and .impeccable-* helpers are homepage-specific and not
     copied). Height is 360px to match the docs column.
   - render-page.js grows a lightweight inline split-compare init
     script (60 lines of vanilla JS) that handles drag and the skewed
     clip-path without depending on the homepage's full lerp/ResizeObserver
     module. Runs only on pages that actually have .split-container.

2. Sidebar reorder: Tutorials first, then skills.
   Walk-throughs are the on-ramp; they belong at the top of the sidebar
   where a new visitor will find them. Add <hr class="skills-sidebar-divider">
   between the Tutorials group and the first skill category so the two
   sections read as distinct.

Verified: /skills/polish, /skills/bolder, /skills/critique all render
the demo block. /skills/shape correctly has none. Sidebar on any /skills
or /tutorials page shows Tutorials first, then a thin mist divider,
then Create / Evaluate / Refine / Simplify / Harden / System skill
categories.
