Summary

Removes the $ shell prompt prefix from all code blocks in the README.

The $ prefix makes GitHub's "Copy code" button include it when copying, which causes friction when pasting commands into a terminal (the shell tries to execute $ as a command).

This is a common convention in modern documentation — shell prompts in code blocks are considered obsolete since code blocks already visually distinguish commands from prose.

Closes #3323

The $ prefix in code blocks makes GitHub's 'Copy code' button include
it when copying, causing friction when pasting commands into a terminal.
