This implements the first part of the delta-based changes proposal,
updating all documentation and conventions to support the new format.
The update command now only updates existing AI tool configuration
files instead of forcing CLAUDE.md creation. This allows team members
to use different AI tools without conflicts.

- Added comprehensive tests for the new behavior
- Updated spec and documentation to reflect team-friendly approach
- Created project README documenting the behavior
- Add Specification Format section to openspec-conventions with:
- Requirement headers for consistent structure
- Scenario headers with bold WHEN/THEN/AND keywords

- cli-init: Convert all behavioral sections
- cli-list: Apply structured format throughout
- cli-update: Restructure requirements and edge cases
- cli-diff: Update all behavior sections
