Document restructuring and the beginnings of Filter 2 changes

Split the pipeline documentation by purpose so each fact has one home:
- docs/pipeline-plan.md keeps the plan, checklist, tracker, and guardrails
- docs/decisions.md holds open decisions and the dated decision log
- docs/reviews/ holds findings and tasks: one file per filter, plus
  00-cross-filter.md for findings that span filters
- scripts/common/README.md holds the shared-helper rules (formerly Phase 2)
- filter-calculations.md now describes calculations only

Filed findings 12-22 from a consistency audit of the app, docs, and scripts.

Filter 1 (Köppen-Geiger): use "Köppen" with the umlaut in all prose, labels,
docstrings, help text, and checker messages (finding 21), and correct the
base build's "majority" docstring (finding 22).

Filter 2 (annual avg temperature): record the adopted definition in
filter-calculations.md §2: equally weighted 1991-2020 monthly normals, per
WMO-No. 1203 and NOAA's 2020 methodology; area-weighted county means; blank
unless all 12 months exist. Code changes for this filter are still pending.

## Metric definitions in generated output
- `koppenZone`: the county's predominant Koppen-Geiger class, meaning the class covering at least 50% of the county's land area and leading the runner-up by at least 5 percentage points; otherwise `Mixed`. Shares are area-weighted, with ocean and no-data cells excluded.

- `koppenPrimaryClass` / `koppenSecondaryClass`: for Mixed counties only, the top and runner-up classes, drawn as stripes on the map; blank for predominant counties.
- `avgTempF`: mean of 12 monthly county mean temperatures, converted C -> F.
- `annualPrecipIn`: sum of 12 monthly county mean precipitation totals, converted mm -> inches.
