"""Persona manifest — parse + validate a persona definition.
Format: YAML frontmatter (identity + capability declaration) followed by a markdown body that
is the system prompt. `persona ⊇ skill` — the same frontmatter-markdown shape as SKILL.md, with
more structured fields. Parsing is strict: an invalid manifest raises ``ManifestError`` rather
than silently producing a broken persona (a third-party persona must fail loudly).
