Rules: Reorder comment-rule bullets and link real paths

Move the 'leave it out / multi-paragraph comments belong elsewhere'
clause ahead of the indent-examples bullet so the priority order reads
high-to-low, and point the off-source destinations at the real specs/
directory and README.md files instead of generic prose.

A doc comment is **required** for every function (including unexported helpers), as well as for every non-trivial Vue `methods:` / `computed:` / watcher:
- Keep comments **compact** and default to one line for WHAT in the format `// Name does X.`. Skip trivial getters (`isOpen: () => this.open`).
- Add up to three follow-up lines (`// …`) only when the WHY is non-obvious: a hidden invariant, a workaround that would otherwise be undone by a future cleanup, a contract a reader can't infer from the code.
- If readers can derive the WHY from the function body or a nearby line, leave it out. Multi-paragraph comments belong in `specs/`, package `README.md` files, or issue descriptions — never in the source itself.
- For short examples in comments, indent code instead of using backticks.
