feat(ultrawork): enforce manual QA execution and acceptance criteria workflow
Add MANUAL_QA_MANDATE sections to all three ultrawork prompts (default, GPT, Gemini). Agents must now define acceptance criteria in TODO/Task items before implementation, then execute manual QA themselves after completing work. lsp_diagnostics alone is explicitly called out as insufficient since it only catches type errors, not functional bugs.

## ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA WORKFLOW
|

|

**BEFORE implementation**, define what "done" means in concrete, binary terms:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Write acceptance criteria as pass/fail conditions (not "should work" — specific observable outcomes)
|
||||
2. Record them in your TODO/Task items with a "QA: [how to verify]" field
|
||||
3. Work toward those criteria, not just "finishing code"
