Add stat change guidelines, attributes toggle, skills editing, and improved character parsing

- Add temporal awareness and stat decay rules to prompt (0-5% per message)
- Add 'Always Include Attributes' toggle in tracker editor
- Fix skills section editing (was not saving customFields)
- Improve Present Characters parser to handle malformed formats (mid-line chars, extra blank lines)
- All changes work in both together/separate generation modes
