This pull request introduces several documentation improvements and adds
comprehensive Copilot and agent instruction files to the al-folio
repository. The most significant changes are the addition of
repository-wide and path-specific Copilot instructions, updates to agent
documentation to reference these instructions, and improvements to the
documentation structure and clarity regarding file purposes and
workflows.
**Copilot and Agent Instruction Enhancements:**
- Added a new `.github/copilot-instructions.md` file providing detailed,
repository-wide setup, build, CI/CD, troubleshooting, and file format
guidance for Copilot coding agents.
- Introduced `.github/instructions/bibtex-bibliography.instructions.md`
with specific instructions for editing and validating BibTeX files,
including custom keywords, formatting rules, and integration with
Jekyll-Scholar.
- Updated agent documentation files (`customize.agent.md`,
`docs.agent.md`) to reference the new Copilot instruction files and
explain their purpose and usage for both repository-wide and
path-specific scenarios.

**Documentation Structure and Clarity Improvements:**
- Clarified and reorganized the documentation file list in agent files,
removing references to deprecated or merged files (e.g.,
`MAINTENANCE.md`, `ACCESSIBILITY.md`) and updating descriptions to
reflect current usage.

- Enhanced documentation on the purpose and application of each
documentation file, and added detailed explanations of Copilot
instruction files and their role in project development.
**Workflow and Validation Updates:**
- Updated references and descriptions for GitHub Actions workflows in
agent documentation to include the Copilot environment setup and clarify
pre-commit and CI/CD requirements.

- Corrected references for accessibility guidance, now directing users
to `TROUBLESHOOTING.md` instead of the removed `ACCESSIBILITY.md`.
These changes collectively improve the onboarding experience for both
human contributors and AI agents, ensuring consistent adherence to
project conventions and reducing errors.

summary:
- adds prettier formatter configuration
- formats the entire repo using prettier, ignoring minified files
(`*.min.css`) and heavy generated html
- changes extensions of all `.html` files to `.liquid`, which is more
correct and necessary for prettier to work correctly
- replaces "%-" and "-%" with just "%" — manual liquid formatting using
minus signs is superfluous since we are compressing and minifying the
code anyway
- adds CI action for running prettier check on PR and pushes to master
Addresses #963.
Supports two setups: getting profile text from page content.

Write your biography here. Tell the world about yourself. Link to your favorite [subreddit](http://reddit.com). You can put a picture in, too. The code is already in, just name your picture `prof_pic.jpg` and put it in the `img/` folder.
Put your address / P.O. box / other info right below your picture. You can also disable any these elements by editing `profile` property of the YAML header of your `_pages/about.md`. Edit `_bibliography/papers.bib` and Jekyll will render your [publications page](/al-folio/publications/) automatically.
Link to your social media connections, too. This theme is set up to use [Font Awesome icons](http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/) and [Academicons](https://jpswalsh.github.io/academicons/), like the ones below. Add your Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Scholar, or just disable all of them.
```
Or getting profile text from `content` (useful when having multiple
profiles).
