Subject: [PATCH] fix: editorial improvements in v0.5.9 spec

- Replace "Researcher Agent" with "Research Skill" in ISC Decomposition table
  to match Capability Registry #13 terminology (line 395)
- Remove vestigial "Agent Instructions (CRITICAL)" heading with no content
  between Per-Phase Capability Guidance and Custom Agent Invocation (line 942)
- Wrap Iteration Mode Format in code fence for consistency with Minimal
  Mode Format which already uses one (lines 665-672)

 ### Custom Agent Invocation (v0.5.9)
 
 **Built-in agents** (`agents/*.md`) have a dedicated `subagent_type` matching their name (e.g., `Engineer`, `Architect`). They are invoked directly via `Task(subagent_type="Engineer")`.
