Gordon Lam a246789719 docs(prompts): sync commit/pr guidance and Copilot settings (#44627 )

## Summary of the Pull Request
- Clarified the PR-summary prompt to prepend a PR title and to reuse the
Conventional Commit rules from
`.github/prompts/create-commit-title.prompt.md`.
- Expanded the commit-title prompt with clearer purpose, inputs, and
Conventional Commit guidance.
- Added workspace Copilot chat settings in `.vscode/settings.json` to
point review/commit/PR generation at the repo prompt files.

e.g. for commit tile generation:
<img width="562" height="376" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ca11d117-e4ad-4d1e-abb7-2b4600690f45"
/>


## PR Checklist
- [ ] Closes: N/A
- [ ] Communication: N/A (prompt/settings maintenance)
- [ ] Tests: Not run (prompt/settings-only change)

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
- The PR-summary workflow now directs PR title generation to the
existing commit-title prompt instead of duplicating rules, and places
the title above the filled template.
- The commit-title prompt now spells out required diff command, decision
steps, and Conventional Commit examples.
- VS Code Copilot chat settings ensure review, commit, and PR
description generation use the repository prompts consistently.

## Validation Steps Performed
- Not run (no product code changes)

agent	GPT-5.1-Codex-Max	Generate an 80-character git commit title for the local diff

Generate Commit Title

Purpose

Provide a single-line, ready-to-paste git commit title (<= 80 characters) that reflects the most important local changes since HEAD.

Input to collect

Run exactly one command to view the local diff:
```
git diff HEAD
```

How to decide the title

From the diff, find the dominant area (e.g., src/modules/*, doc/devdocs/**) and the change type (bug fix, docs update, config tweak).
Draft an imperative, plain-ASCII title that:
- Mentions the primary component when obvious (e.g., FancyZones: or Docs:)
- Stays within 80 characters and has no trailing punctuation

Final output

Reply with only the commit title on a single line—no extra text.

PR title convention (when asked)

Use Conventional Commits style:

<type>(<scope>): <summary>

Allowed types

feat, fix, docs, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore

Scope rules

Use a short, PowerToys-focused scope (one word preferred). Common scopes:
- Core: runner, settings-ui, common, docs, build, ci, installer, gpo, dsc
- Modules: fancyzones, powerrename, awake, colorpicker, imageresizer, keyboardmanager, mouseutils, peek, hosts, file-locksmith, screen-ruler, text-extractor, cropandlock, paste, powerlauncher
If unclear, pick the closest module or subsystem; omit only if unavoidable

Summary rules

Imperative, present tense (“add”, “update”, “remove”, “fix”)
Keep it <= 72 characters when possible; be specific, avoid “misc changes”

Examples

feat(fancyzones): add canvas template duplication
fix(mouseutils): guard crosshair toggle when dpi info missing
docs(runner): document tray icon states
build(installer): align wix v5 suffix flag
ci(ci): cache pipeline artifacts for x64
