.NET: Restructure skill script schemas XML and remove resources from body (#6343)

* Restore UTF-8 BOMs and fix BuildScriptSchemasBlock doc comment

- Restore UTF-8 BOM on all changed files to match repo convention
- Fix XML doc: <schema name=...> -> <schema script=...> to match emitted output

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* Address PR review comments: fix doc remarks and rename tests

- Update script doc remarks to clarify only parameter schemas are included
- Fix grammar: 'arguments format' -> 'argument format'
- Rename misleading test methods to match actual assertions
- Clarify comment about removed wrapper element
