Resolve {project-root} by walking up to the nearest _bmad/

[bmadcode]

Every skill now says {project-root} is the nearest folder containing _bmad/, starting at the project working directory and moving up through its parents.

The old line said {project-root} paths resolve from the project working directory. That breaks when an agent starts inside a worktree or subfolder that has no _bmad/ of its own, such as oss/.worktrees/<repo>/<branch> with _bmad/ at oss/.

We tested both wordings in sandboxes with identical decoy installs, across Claude Code, Codex, opencode (GLM) and Antigravity models. The new wording found the right _bmad/ 43 of 45 times. The old wording managed 31 of 45 and wrote to the wrong copy 3 times.
