Add rule and command types to cursor

[R44VC0RP]

Add support for "rule" and "command" types for Cursor rules, allowing users to create custom slash commands in .cursor/commands alongside existing rules.

This change introduces a type field to distinguish between traditional Cursor rules (stored in .cursor/rules as .mdc files) and new custom slash commands (stored in .cursor/commands as .md files). The UI now provides a clear selection for the type, and the CLI intelligently handles file creation, parsing, and synchronization based on the chosen type and file location. All existing rules are automatically classified as 'rule' type.
