Reading Mage ability changes

The list filters ranks by character level; an ability detail page shows every recorded rank. Change labels compare Beta with Classic Era. Removed entries describe the Classic baseline and cannot be treated as learnable Beta abilities; talent-granted abilities also require the corresponding allocation.
