Tom Boucher 13faf66132 fix(installer): preserve USER-PROFILE.md and dev-preferences.md on re-install (#1945) ...

Running gsd-update (re-running the installer) silently deleted two
user-generated files:
- get-shit-done/USER-PROFILE.md (created by /gsd-profile-user)
- commands/gsd/dev-preferences.md (created by /gsd-profile-user)

Root causes:
1. copyWithPathReplacement() calls fs.rmSync(destDir, {recursive:true})
   before copying, wiping USER-PROFILE.md with no preserve allowlist.
2. The legacy commands/gsd/ cleanup at ~line 5211 rmSync'd the entire
   directory, wiping dev-preferences.md.
3. The backup path in profile-user.md pointed to the same directory
   that gets wiped, so the backup was also lost.

Fix:
- Add preserveUserArtifacts(destDir, fileNames) and restoreUserArtifacts()
  helpers that save/restore listed files around destructive wipes.
- Call them in install() before the get-shit-done/ copy (preserves
  USER-PROFILE.md) and before the legacy commands/gsd/ cleanup
  (preserves dev-preferences.md).
- Fix profile-user.md backup path from ~/.claude/get-shit-done/USER-PROFILE.backup.md
  to ~/.claude/USER-PROFILE.backup.md (outside the wiped directory).

Closes #1924
