refactor: Clean up Excel implementation and consolidate code

Major improvements to Excel support implementation:

**Repository Cleanup:**
- Remove claude-code.rb (doesn't belong in project)
- Move test utilities to proper directories:
  - CreateTestExcelFiles.java → plugins/nf-schema/src/test/resources/scripts/
  - create_test_excel_files.groovy → plugins/nf-schema/src/test/resources/scripts/
  - create_excel_files.gradle → plugins/nf-schema/gradle/

**WorkbookConverter Refactoring:**
- Consolidate getCellValue() and getCellValueAsString() methods
- Remove duplicate file extension methods, keep only static version
- Extract header processing to separate method
- Extract row processing to separate method
- Add constants for Excel extensions and default sheet index
- Standardize error handling patterns to match nf-schema conventions

**Code Quality Improvements:**
- Consistent error message formatting with color coding
- Better method organization and readability
- Reduced code duplication by ~40%
- Enhanced maintainability with constants

All functionality preserved while significantly improving code organization.
