fix: remove false-positive Exit code 1 pattern, fix NEEDS_SETUP test, update QA tests

- Remove /Exit code 1/ from BROWSE_ERROR_PATTERNS — too broad, matches any
  bash command exit code in the transcript (e.g., git diff, test commands).
  Remaining patterns (Unknown command, Unknown snapshot flag, binary not found,
  server failed, no such file) are specific to browse errors.

- Fix NEEDS_SETUP E2E test — accepts READY when global binary exists at
  ~/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse (which it does on dev machines).
  Test now verifies the setup block handles missing local binary gracefully.

- Update QA skill structure validation tests to match current qa/SKILL.md
  template content (phases renamed, modes replaced tiers, output structure).
