Subject: [PATCH] docs: drop CLI demo badge and ASCII mockups in favor of full
 reference link (#730)

Condense the CLI section to the essential install/usage snippet and
command groups, pointing to docs.getsemantica.ai for the full
reference instead of maintaining static terminal mockups in the README.
