Matt Pocock 55511cea24 wayfinder: restore no-fog early exit
Bring back the "skip the map when there's no fog" branch that was
collateral-deleted with the Handoff section. Co-located in Chart the
map step 2, where the fog/no-fog outcome is determined: if breadth-first
grilling surfaces no fog, offer to skip the map and implement directly.
The offer (ask, don't auto-skip) is preserved from the original.

Restore wayfinder's early exit when the frontier grilling turns up no fog.

The skill used to have a Skipping The Decision Map section: if the opening grilling surfaced no fog of war, there was no map to build, so it offered to skip straight to implementing. That clause was demoted to a parenthetical inside the Handoff section, then deleted as collateral when Handoff was removed — never an intentional cut.

It's back, co-located in Chart the map step 2 (Map the frontier), where the fog/no-fog outcome is actually determined: if breadth-first grilling surfaces no fog, tell the user and offer to skip the map, implementing directly instead. The offer — asking rather than auto-skipping — is preserved from the original.
