tests: update SDD assertions and prompts to current skill behavior

The SDD skill tests still asserted on pre-rename skill text, so correct
model answers failed the suite:

- "Read at beginning" asserted "Step 1|beginning|start|Load Plan";
  the current skill has no numbered steps or Load Plan phase (setup
  covers it: "Read the plan once" during Setup). A live run today
  failed this assertion when the model correctly answered "during
  setup". Pattern now accepts setup/before-dispatch paraphrases while
  still requiring an at-the-start answer.
- "Provides text directly" asserted the removed provide-full-task-text
  behavior; SDD now routes task requirements through brief files
  (scripts/task-brief). The test now asks brief-file-vs-whole-plan and
  asserts the brief-based flow.
- The integration test's prompt and summary told the agent to
  "provide full task text to subagents (don't make them read files)",
  contradicting the skill it verifies; reworded to the task-brief flow.
  Also gave its direct `timeout 1800 claude -p` the same </dev/null
  stdin guard as run_claude.

Live-LLM tests; verified with bash -n on every touched file.

Part of #2130; defects documented in PR #2071 by @ericyen97903-lab.
