feat: bind the destroy gate to approval_binding_digest and pdp_path

The vocabulary mapping this path was waiting on is not coming: gate-house
rejected it in GH-DEC-2026-008, because a translation can be confidently
wrong and fails open by accepting a claim approved for a different action.
The stronger option arrived instead, and both halves are enforced here.

flex-auth published binding.approval_binding_digest (FLEX-DEC-2026-007) to
fix the circularity this repo reported: a pdp_digest recorded at issue time
can never equal the request_digest of the request that carries the claim in
its hashed context, so with GH-DEC-2026-008 requiring that equality, destroy
would have failed closed forever on a check no correct record could pass.

- authorization.approval_binding_digest implements the published exclusion
  rule, including Go's context,omitempty behaviour when stripping empties
  the context; digest_material drops an empty context for the same reason.
- validate_decision_envelope recomputes the field rather than trusting it,
  refuses a claim-bearing request whose decision records none, and compares
  the claim's digest from step 1 against it -- never against request_digest,
  which still covers the claim so it stays a sound replay identity.
- validate_approval_claim requires binding.pdp_path true before using
  pdp_digest at all. Path intent is never inferred from a digest that
  happens to be present; pre-schema-v3 approvals carry pdp_path false
  regardless of any digest they hold.

Replay fixtures re-vendored from dd3ce4c. The destroy pins moved a second
and final time; approval_binding_digest did not, which is the point. The
fixture now demonstrates the property instead of asserting it: we rederive
fa07becf... from its own request through our canonical implementation,
proving we hash the same material flex-auth does rather than pinning a
constant we cannot reproduce.

+
+1. commit `9f3e7e3` completed the approval-claim on `context.approval`. Because
+   `context` is hashed material, completing the claim moved the request digest.
+2. commit `dd3ce4c` (`FLEX-DEC-2026-007`) published
+   `binding.approval_binding_digest` and set the embedded claim's
+   `binding.pdp_digest` to it with `binding.pdp_path` true. The request digest
+   moved once more with the claim's contents; the approval-binding digest did
+   **not**, which is the property the fixture now demonstrates rather than
+   asserts.
+
+`decision_rotate.json` is unchanged and carries no `approval_binding_digest` —
+the field is omitted on claim-free decisions rather than duplicated onto them.
 
 **Pinned here** (stable across runs, per the upstream README):

+
+`approval_binding_digest` is not only pinned but **rederived** by
+`test_pdp_digest_equals_the_published_approval_binding_digest`: our canonical
+implementation must reproduce it from the fixture's own request. A pin asserts
+the constant; rederiving it proves we hash the same material flex-auth does.
 
 **Never pin:** `id`, `provenance.decision_time`, `lifetime.not_before`,
 `lifetime.expires_at` — all move with the clock.
