tegwick bff64053ca ADR-0022 + CB-WP-0048 T00: the selector decision, and the mirror held
The maintainer's observation decided the design: aspects partition the
GAME, strata partition our apparatus, and they are orthogonal. A module
is one coordinate change in aspect space with an obligation in every
stratum. So aspect identity must NOT be Rust types -- an aspect
ground-game adds would make clay-borg fail to parse a configuration
rather than fail to run it, welding the two coordinate systems at the
one place they must stay independent.

Chosen: identity as data (Configuration round-trips anything the catalog
names), behaviour exhaustive (Rules, no catch-all), resolve() between.
Decisive argument: the catalog ALREADY ships modules with a rules_delta
and status: proposed, so a per-aspect enum would report them as "unknown
module" -- indistinguishable from a typo, a false statement about the
edition, and this project's signature failure shape. Two facts need two
errors. Federating design authority is permanent, so the representation
must outlive the implementation.

Legacy ids alias forever through the catalog's own legacy_experiment_id,
on the standard-Np precedent: 26 recordings name them and the expansion
is exact, so there is nothing to deprecate.

T00 done: the schema-2 mirror had arrived with no digests (19 files) and
edition-check was red. Digests are now generated by WALKING editions/,
not typed -- two reviews already found hand-written lists that made
their own controls vacuous, and a mirror that grows a directory is what
breaks a maintained list. PROVENANCE-catalog.md was a file inside the
mirrored tree that upstream does not have; folded into our own
PROVENANCE.md, since provenance about the mirror does not belong inside
the thing it describes.
