feat: add AI assistant configuration templates

[JacobPEvans]

Summary

• Add docs/AI_ASSISTANT_CONFIG.md with setup guidance for GitHub Copilot and Gemini Code Assist
• Add minimal .gemini/config.yaml template with only non-default settings
• Update README.md docs table to reference new AI assistant config documentation
• Add spelling exceptions (styleguide, venv, pycache) to .cspell.json

Provides copy-paste templates for configuring AI code review tools across all JacobPEvans repositories. For repos with agentsmd/ structure (like ai-assistant-instructions), guidance points to symlinking instead of inline copying.

Test plan

• Verify template files exist: ls -la .gemini/config.yaml docs/AI_ASSISTANT_CONFIG.md
• Confirm README table renders correctly on GitHub
• Test copying template config to another repo
• Verify all pre-commit hooks pass
