Add native rotate and persistent lane overlay states

rotate replaces one declared KV field through the merge-safe patch path
and never prints the value. Overlay states active/suspended/deactivated/
compromised live under the evidence directory. compromise/reactivate and
successful suspend/deactivate/revoke update that overlay; exec/wrap/
handoff/provision refuse non-active lanes. Provider-side rotation stays
with rotation.owner. Production remains fail-closed.
