    Document all CP437 files in CLAUDE.md with do-not-corrupt warning

    List every file containing raw CP437 bytes and stress that the
    Read/Edit/Write tools must never be used on them Ä UTF-8 interpretation silently replaces each CP437 byte with U+FFFD.

    Update CLAUDE.md: git push policy, doc format clarifications

    Add git push authorization rule alongside existing commit rule, note
    that permission does not carry over between tasks. Clarify that doc
    files must not contain UTF-8 and should use -- instead of em-dash.

    Log Message:
    Move ^Welcome art from clans.hlp to menus.hlp; document dead help topics

    clans.hlp's only CP437 content was the ^Welcome section (20 lines of box-drawing art). Moving it to menus.hlp -- which already holds all
    the other menu/title art -- makes clans.hlp pure ASCII and safe to edit
    with normal tools. The single Help() call in user.c now references
    ST_MENUSHLP instead of ST_CLANSHLP.

    Also adds todo [1.8] documenting genuinely dead help topics
    (^Eliminated and ^Special in menus.hlp are never displayed) and orphaned-but-browsable topics in clans.hlp (^Newbies, ^Colours,
    ^Beta Note have no direct Help() call but remain reachable through
    the GeneralHelp browser).

    Delete original CP437 data files; update all stale filename references

    Remove the 10 original CP437 files (available in git history). Fix src/GNUmakefile and data/genall.bat build references that still pointed
    at the old filenames. Update all documentation (notes.txt, menus.txt, utf8.txt, todo.txt, clandev.txt, prompt.md), test scripts (test_stock_quests.sh, test_langcomp.sh), and CLAUDE.md to reference
    the .u8. filenames throughout.

    Completely eliminate the last vestiges of elimination mode

    It appears it went away with forts since you can't "destroy" an
    empire, but there's still been settings and struct members and
    code and strings mentioning it.

    Add test target to top-level GNUmakefile

    Add a top-level `gmake test` target that runs both unit tests (src/tests/) and integration tests (tests/) in sequence. Update CLAUDE.md to document the new convenience target alongside per-suite invocation options. Each sub-suite handles its own prerequisites automatically.
