audit: sweep CLI Development, mint TUI Frameworks, drop cement

Browse Source 
Restructure: textual and asciimatics move from Terminal Rendering to a
minted TUI Frameworks subcategory — full-screen terminal UIs are a
distinct job from rendering output. urwid joins them in the GUI
Development commit, which dissolves that section's Terminal subcategory.

Renames to canonical PyPI names: python-prompt-toolkit → prompt_toolkit,
python-fire → fire (the PyPI package named python-fire is an unrelated
name-squatter; Google's project installs as fire).

Tiers: click (1.12B/mo), typer (366M/mo), argparse (stdlib) obvious
choices; prompt_toolkit (246.8M/mo), fire (22M/mo) challengers.
tqdm (670.1M/mo), rich (626.7M/mo) obvious choices; colorama
(425.6M/mo, largely pip-transitive traffic, superseded by rich for new
code) demoted to challenger (Second Tier) beside alive-progress (3.7M/mo).
textual (535.4M/mo) obvious choice of TUI Frameworks, asciimatics
(177.5K/mo) challenger.

Removed:
- cement — 565K downloads/month but 1.3K stars after 17 years
  (CI-shaped count); alive yet no longer anyone's unprompted answer
  against click, typer, fire, or prompt_toolkit. Judgment call.
