What does this PR do?

Allows a variety of separators between the date and time portions of a filename, fixing the assumption that the separator is always a dash.

The recognized pattern is now yyyyMMdd[sep]HHmmss, where [sep] may be:

• a dash (20260711-123456)
• an underscore (20260711_123456)
• a dot (20260711.123456)
• a space (20260711 123456)
• omitted entirely (20260711123456)

Changes:

• Updated the timestamp regex to [-_. ]? for the separator.
• Updated the comment-based help, the skip-reason warning text, and the README.
• Updated AGENT-README.md (script description and Changes log).

How was this tested?

• Script parses cleanly (0 errors)
• Manually verified all five separator forms (dash, underscore, dot, space, none) bucket into the correct Year\yyyy-MM-dd folder, and a non-matching name is still skipped

Checklist

• Changes are focused - one logical change
• Documentation updated (README and AGENT-README)
• No new third-party dependencies
• No commented-out code or debug leftovers

Accept flexible separators between date and time in filenames ... d9c3624ee7

The date/time separator in a filename may now be a dash, underscore, dot, or
space, or be omitted entirely (yyyyMMdd[sep]HHmmss). Previously only a dash was
recognized. Updated the regex, comment-based help, warning text, and README.
