Apply due defaults: escalate RISK-F-0011 stall, settle C-31 as noise

RISK-F-0011: KG-WP-0005-T03 still waits on a deployed capture; medium grade
stands, stall recorded, escalated to the-custodian under trigger 5.
RISK-WP-0001: C-31 documented as expected noise. RISK-F-0008 acceptance
review recorded clean.

 ## Reviews
 
 - **2026-09-02** — graded from the Gate House intake, the named conformance review, and a current-source check of qonto-assistant. Local lockout is in-process; the emitted deny stream still has no cadence or reconciliation view. Cadence starts at instant.
 - **2026-09-05** — not clean: Reviewed owner notice, cadence/logger/endpoint and KG-WP-0005; source remediation exists, deployed-instance acceptance remains pending under KG-WP-0005-T03. See RISK-V-0003. Cadence instant → instant; checked again immediately.
