Authorize tenant-engine lifecycle actions (FLEX-WP-0010)

Extend the tenant-engine write-API policy package with tenant.update,
tenant.retire, and tenant.reactivate, the three actions TEN-WP-0005
introduced. Until now every lifecycle mutation resolved to deny
unknown_action, blocking TEN-WP-0005-T05 production rollout.

- policy_package.md: three actions in valid_actions and frontmatter;
  CARING capabilities extended with EditAny/Archive/Restore
- protected_system_manifest.yaml, subject_manifest.yaml, and the rebuilt
  registry_snapshot.json carry all seven actions
- docs/tenant-engine-action-vocabulary.md documents the HTTP surfaces
- 8 new fixture pairs and 5 new Rego tests, including action-drift
  guards (tenant.retired, tenant_update -> unknown_action)

T02 decision, recorded in policy_package.md: tenant.retire does NOT get
stricter authorization yet. With one service subject and no assurance
claim in the CheckRequest there is nothing stricter to check, and a
condition the sole caller always satisfies would falsely read as
separate control. Retirement is reversible and non-destructive. Revisit
on KEY-WP-0005 assurance claims or a second operator subject.

Verified: 11/11 Rego tests, 16/16 fixtures, go test ./... green, gofmt
and go vet clean. End-to-end against a live serve with a real
tenant-engine through the unmodified FlexAuthWriteAuthorizer: update
6176c39c2f4d7b15, retire 8a801b8ee8455080, reactivate c64cf3713cecd970
all allow; unregistered actor denied unknown_subject
(59d3e99c6416be89, 403 write_denied).

Handoff revision for TEN-WP-0005-T05: package
tenant-engine.write-api.mutate v1 (ready, caring-0.4.0-rc2).

## Verified — lifecycle actions (FLEX-WP-0010-T03, 2026-08-10)
`test-policy` reports **11/11 Rego tests and 16/16 fixtures passing**, the
registry loads, and `go test ./...` / `gofmt` / `go vet` are clean.
End-to-end over real HTTP: a live `flex-auth serve` on `127.0.0.1:9098`
loaded with this registry and policy, and a real `tenant-engine`
(`TENANT_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_URL=http://127.0.0.1:9098`) driven through its
unmodified `FlexAuthWriteAuthorizer` with `Idempotency-Key` and an `If-Match`
echoed from a prior `GET`:
| Call | tenant-engine | flex-auth decision |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `POST /tenants` | 201 | `decision:174dc9ecb03ed9e5` allow `write_api_policy_matched` |
| `PATCH /tenants/t-e2e-1` | 200 `active` | `decision:6176c39c2f4d7b15` allow `write_api_policy_matched` |
| `POST /tenants/t-e2e-1/retire` | 200 `retired` | `decision:8a801b8ee8455080` allow `write_api_policy_matched` |

| `POST .../retire` as `actor: ops` | 403 `write_denied` | `decision:59d3e99c6416be89` deny `unknown_subject` |
The misspelled-action guard (`tenant.retired` → deny `unknown_action`) is
covered by fixture and by
`check -request check_request_deny_misspelled_lifecycle.json`; it cannot be
driven through the client, which only ever emits the seven registered strings
— which is the property the guard exists to protect.
