build: migrate from .NET 9 to .NET 10 (LTS)

Upgrade all 101 projects from net9.0 to net10.0, pin SDK
via global.json (10.0.100 / latestFeature), update CI
workflows, docs, templates, benchmark scripts, and test
infrastructure paths.

Fix C# 14 'field' keyword conflict in ValidationContext
by renaming tuple variable.

Fix SKILL.md ProjectReference path
(..\Reactor\ -> ..\src\Reactor\).
