The hook examples showed `wt step copy-ignored` in `post-start`, but for Node.js projects where `post-create` runs `npm ci`, the copy needs to happen *before* install — otherwise the cached `node_modules/` copy hasn't happened yet when `npm ci` runs from scratch. Move `copy-ignored` to `post-create` in the canonical example and update the guidance to recommend `post-create` when subsequent hooks depend on the copied files, `post-start` when nothing needs them immediately. Closes #1578 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
wt step copy-ignoredfrompost-starttopost-createin the canonical hook examplespost-create(for when subsequent hooks need the files) and explain whenpost-startis better (large copies nothing depends on)step.rscopy-ignored docs for consistencyWhy: For Node.js projects,
post-createrunsnpm ci— butcopy-ignoredwas shown inpost-start, which runs afterpost-create. The cachednode_modules/copy hadn't happened yet whennpm ciran from scratch, defeating the purpose. Moving the copy before install meansnpm cireuses cached packages.post-startremains the right choice for Rust'starget/directory and other large caches where nothing depends on them immediately.Closes #1578
