[Feature]: AIDLC should include phase for discovery for PMs and pass product strategy context to incepetion phase

[RachnaC1234]

Description

AI-DLC jumps straight into Requirements Analysis for Greenfield projects. That assumes someone already knows what to build. But for new products, the hardest part isn't gathering requirements — it's figuring out the right problem to solve in the first place.

Introduce a Discovery phase that fills that gap by giving PMs a structured, AI-assisted way to:

1/Start from customer pain points rather than jumping to solutions — the AI acts as a product strategist asking the right questions, or analyzes research URLs the PM provides
2/Validate the product idea through a PRFAQ (Working Backwards) before any technical work begins — forcing clarity on who the customer is, what problem matters, and why this solution is differentiated
3/Define the business side (positioning, business model, go-to-market) so Inception doesn't start with vague assumptions from a slide deck
4/The key insight is that for Greenfield, the input to Requirements Analysis was often weak or missing. Discovery produces a validated, structured living document that gives Inception real context to work with — not just "build me an app that does X" but a full product definition grounded in customer problems, competitive analysis, and business strategy.
