tegwick 119359c33d Reconcile the release record; guard the image pin with tests
The publication at b51d174 pinned the manifest and appended a note, but left
three documents asserting the opposite. docs/image-scan-2026-09-06.md said "It
has not been pushed" in its Outcome block at the top while recording the
successful push at the bottom; its "Release status" section still said no
release digest existed and the manifest carried REPLACE_WITH_RELEASE_DIGEST;
and deploy/README.md still instructed an operator to replace a placeholder that
is now a real digest -- an instruction to undo the pin.

This is the derived-artifact staleness this repo argued for a rule about in
v0.8 §12 and then produced in its own release evidence, in the file another
repository would read to confirm what shipped. Superseded sections are now
marked in place with what replaced them rather than deleted, since they record
why the base changed and why the release was held. The scan doc carries a
status marker naming which parts state current state, including that a clean
scan is point-in-time and ages as advisories are published.

The workplan gains the publication entry it never got, and a re-check of T03's
full acceptance: a published image reads like a finished task, but the digest
was one of five requirements. Nothing is deployed -- the namespace is empty and
no secrets exist -- and production serve refuses to start without authenticated
audit delivery, so a rollout today would fail closed and prove nothing. T03
stays wait on T01's registrations and the audit credential.

Also corrects an earlier caution in the workplan that the digest was "a local
image id, not a release digest". That was wrong: with the containerd/OCI store
the build id is the manifest digest, and the registry resolves it.

tests/test_deploy_manifest.py holds the pin mechanically instead of by review:
both image references exist, are digest-pinned rather than tagged, are
identical, and no placeholder remains. The identity check matters because the
init container migrates the database the server then serves -- two different
digests there is a split-brain migration. Verified the guard fails on the drift
it targets, not only that it passes today. 116 tests pass.
