Julio César Suástegui b53f3d4991 fix: add error handling for IOError/UnicodeDecodeError + sync ALLOWED_SUBDOMAINS
- Wrap open() call in try/except for IOError and UnicodeDecodeError
  to report clean errors instead of crashing on encoding issues
- Add all subdomains actually used by existing skills in the repo:
  identity-access-management (33 skills), security-operations (28),
  identity-and-access-management, zero-trust, ot-security, purple-team,
  red-team, ai-security, social-engineering-defense, and others
- Remove identity-security as the canonical form is identity-access-management
