Summary

Comprehensive rewrite of all six Use Zcash in the Real World playbooks. The previous versions were thin bullet-point lists with almost no actionable content. This PR rewrites all six with specific, practical instructions.

Changes:

  • About.md: New index with beginner/intermediate/advanced difficulty labels, improved prerequisites ("Before You Start"), clear completion goal, and consistent linking
  • Receive_Donations_Privately.md: Full guide covering dedicated donation wallet setup, Free2Z platform integration, donor instructions for acquiring ZEC, and viewing key reporting for auditors
  • Send_Money_Without_Linking_Identity.md: Address type comparison table (transparent/Sapling/Unified), step-by-step fund shielding, timing correlation avoidance, and selective disclosure via outgoing viewing key
  • Freelance_Privacy_Setup.md: Per-client address separation, invoice memo standard, accountant viewing key workflow, and fiat conversion paths via Gemini shielded deposits and THORChain
  • Private_Community_treasury.md: Three custody models (single-custodian, SLIP-39 shared-seed, FROST multi-sig), viewing key governance for auditors, encrypted memo accounting standard, and custodian rotation procedure
  • Journalist_privacy_setup.md: Dedicated device discipline, shielded-only transaction enforcement, source payment flow, memo security rules, fiat conversion without breaking privacy, and legal disclosure via incoming viewing key

All guides follow the existing page structure (TL;DR, Who is this for, The Problem, Why Zcash, What You Need, Step-by-Step, Common Mistakes, Result, Related, Progress/Next).

Closes #1555
