powershell 7 is an undocumented requirement? initialize-repo.ps1 seems to have an encoding issue hit going through the initial "Get Started"

Running on Windows 11 with claude integration and powershell scripts, I hit an error fairly early in /speckit-constitution

Claude had been launched from a powershell terminal with $PSVersionTable.PSVersion equal to 5.1, if that matters.

● PowerShell(.\.specify\extensions\git\scripts\powershell\initialize-repo.ps1)

The line referenced https://github.com/github/spec-kit/blame/a08af08415432db2ae15b70e82400eaad9dbfd2f/extensions/git/scripts/powershell/initialize-repo.ps1#L69 has a special character... not sure how that should be handled, maybe the file would work with a BOM

It seems the powershell version does matter, I did not see the issue after updating to powershell 7.6.2.
