docs: update README and SKILL.md for ScrapeCreators TikTok API
Replace all Apify references with ScrapeCreators. Key points: - No subscription required (was $5/mo with Apify) - 100 free credits, pay-as-you-go after - SCRAPECREATORS_API_KEY replaces APIFY_API_TOKEN - Backwards compatible: APIFY_API_TOKEN still works as fallback Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
