docs: replace dummy docs with GEMASTIK 2026 Warmup writeups (ch1-14)
- Deleted all previous dummy docs (defcon-quals-2024, infra/cloudflare-525, debugging/websocket-timeout, template, docs/*, notes/*, research/*)
- Added 14 Gemastik warmup writeups covering encoding, stego, web, pwn, crypto
- ch13: RSA small factors; ch14: RSA special integers via paper-search (GCD with paper appendix primes)
- All flags recovered and documented with solution methods

# Layers (500 pts) — Encoding chain
**File:** `chall.txt` → `5230564e51564e55535573784f58746f4d33686662464673645639694e484d7a58324e6f4e44467566513d3d`
Dua lapis encoding berturut-turut: **Hex → bytes → Base64 → flag**:
```python
import base64
s = "5230564e51564e55535573784f58746f4d33686662464673645639694e484d7a58324e6f4e44467566513d3d"
# Layer 1: hex decode
b = bytes.fromhex(s)
# b = b'R0VNQVNUSUsxOXtoM3hfbFFsdV9iNHMzX2NoNDFufQ=='
# Layer 2: base64 decode
flag = base64.b64decode(b).decode()
print(flag)
# GEMASTIK19{h3x_lQlu_b4s3_ch41n}
```
## Flag
`GEMASTIK19{h3x_lQlu_b4s3_ch41n}`
