Update Learning Hub: HTTP hooks, preToolUse matcher, plugin install improvements (#1525)

- Document new HTTP hook type (v1.0.35): hooks can now POST JSON to a URL
  instead of running a local command, enabling centralized audit/notification
  services without distributing scripts to every developer's machine
- Document preToolUse matcher field (v1.0.36): clarify that matcher is a regex
  filter on tool name; add important upgrade note about v1.0.36 behavioral fix
  (previously matcher was silently ignored)
- Update Security Gating example to show matcher field targeting the bash tool
- Add HTTP hook practical example for session-end audit webhook
- Note that plugins take effect immediately after install (v1.0.35, no restart needed)
- Update lastUpdated dates on both pages
