/**
 * Lightweight frontmatter parser for specify specs.
 *
 * Parses the leading --- block from markdown files.
 * Returns a plain object or null if no frontmatter is found.
 *
 * Supports:
 *   - scalar: key: value
 *   - inline list: key: [a, b, c]
 *   - block list:
 *       key:
 *         - item1
 *         - item2
 *
 * We intentionally do NOT depend on markdown-lsp for frontmatter —
 * markdown-lsp does not parse frontmatter out of the box (plan fact).
 * gray-matter is the external dep for production use; this module adds
 * a zero-dep fallback that handles the spec's subset.
