feat(onboarding): browser-first README + starter_questions for 8 masters

Shift the README narrative so that non-developer users — the 99% of the
actual audience — find the browser entry point first and the CLI install
second. The old structure buried fojin.app/chat at line 48 under a wall
of developer badges.

Changes:

- README.md / README_EN.md: new "立即体验 / Try It Now" hero section
  right after the title block, with a big call-to-action linking to
  fojin.app/chat, a "which master should I ask" recommendation table,
  and an explicit redirect for CLI users to the developer section.
- Rename "快速开始 / Quick Start" → "开发者安装 / Developer Installation"
  with a clear "if you just want to try it, use the browser instead"
  callout at the top.
- Update TOC anchors in both languages to match.

- prebuilt/<master>/meta.json × 8: new `starter_questions` field with
  4 Q&A entries per master. Each entry has `q` (the question) and `why`
  (why this question is suited for this specific master's voice and
  source corpus). Intended consumer: fojin.app/chat can fetch the raw
  meta.json on master selection and render these as cold-start prompts
  — solving the empty-input-box problem for first-time users.

Rationale: the biggest onboarding gap for non-CLI users is "I don't
know what to ask this master." A curated 4-question starter per master
provides both a safe entry point and a teaching signal about what this
particular master is actually good at answering.

Validated: scripts/validate.py --strict passes (9/9 masters).

+
+### 👉 [Open fojin.app/chat](https://fojin.app/chat)

+- `/compare-masters` multi-master comparison works the same way
+- Live citation retrieval backed by FoJin's 503 sources and 678K+ semantic embeddings
+- Every answer carries a CBETA source ID
+
+**Not sure which master to ask?** Start here:
+
+| Your situation | Suggested master |
+|---|---|
+| "My mind is scattered, I can't sit still" | `/xuyun` `/zhiyi` (huatou / śamatha-vipaśyanā) |
+| "I can't follow the logic of the sutras" | `/xuanzang` (Yogācāra precision) |
+| "I've studied for years but feel stuck" | `/yinguang` (plain, sincere nianfo) |
+| "I want to understand emptiness" | `/kumarajiva` `/huineng` (Madhyamaka / direct pointing) |
+| "I want a systematic view of Huayan / Tiantai" | `/fazang` `/zhiyi` (classification and metaphysics) |
+| "I'm torn between Chan and Pure Land" | `/ouyi` (cross-tradition synthesis) |
+
+> Developers and Claude Code / Cursor users should skip to [Developer Installation](#developer-installation) to use the masters as terminal AgentSkills.

 > **v0.3 Update**: Full architecture rebuild — CBETA provenance in frontmatter, offline source passages (`sources/`), automated fidelity tests (`fidelity.jsonl`), one-command NPX installer, and offline toolchain (`cite.py` / `query.py`).
