teknium1 ac58309dbd docs: improve Slack setup guide with channel event subscriptions and scopes
The #1 support issue with Slack is 'bot works in DMs but not channels'.
This is almost always caused by missing event subscriptions (message.channels,
message.groups) or missing OAuth scopes (channels:history, groups:history).

Changes:
- slack.md: Move channels:history and groups:history from optional to required
  scopes. Move message.channels and message.groups to required events. Add new
  'How the Bot Responds' section explaining DM vs channel behavior. Add Step 8
  for inviting bot to channels. Expand troubleshooting table with specific
  'works in DMs not channels' entry. Add quick checklist for channel debugging.
- setup.py: Expand Slack setup wizard with all required scopes, event
  subscriptions, and a warning that without message.channels/message.groups
  the bot only works in DMs. Add link to full docs. Improve Member ID
  discovery instructions.
- config.py: Update SLACK_BOT_TOKEN and SLACK_APP_TOKEN descriptions to list
  required scopes and event subscriptions inline.
