T01: establish canonical milestone sequence, record F-0001

Three documents defined conflicting milestone sequences; an unqualified
reference to e.g. 'M2' was ambiguous across the corpus.

- docs/TestDriverInitialMilestones.md (M0-M10) is now canonical
- INTENT.md and ConceptModel section 15 carry superseded banners plus a
  mapping table rather than being deleted
- canonical order is explicitly distinguished from execution order
- research/findings/ established; F-0001 filed as CONCEPT_DRIFT, resolved
  via path 2 (concept deliberately revised), with one residual for T10

-## M1 — Agentic driver
-
-Allow an actor agent to realize a semantic action or use-case subgoal through a browser or API surface while preserving actor isolation and evidence capture.
-
-## M2 — Adaptation and crystallization
-
-Implement:
-
-- adaptation classification,
-- successful-path persistence,
-- hardening,
-- generation of deterministic test candidates.

-## M3 — Living verification
-
-Introduce:
-
-- energy,
-- temperature,
-- lineage,
-- retirement,
-- mutation campaigns,
-- adaptive test selection.

 **Purpose:** Establish the minimum evidence-producing development loop needed to validate the core test-driver concepts.
