**`gstack-ship-release finish` now accepts the owner's edit after a fix-check instead of asking for another review round (GST-965).** On gbrain #8425, the fix-check found a blocker, the owner's pre-agreed fallback was applied and "then ship" was granted. Finish still classed the edit as behavior and stopped with `insert 5–11.5 → 12–14 → 16`, a third round the R51 cap forbids, so /ship could not get through Step 16 without running its stages by hand.
### Added
- **`finish --review-loop-exception <json|@file>`** (`lib/ship-release.ts`) takes the same record `gstack-ship-receipt write --review-loop-exception` takes. Paths changed since `fix_check.head` that the branch already touched at that commit (narrowed to the record's `fix_check.files` when it lists them) route as `accepted=` on the `ROUTE:` line, a `REVIEW_LOOP_EXCEPTION:` line names them with the owner, date and channel, and the docs stage carries them (`accepted=` in the DOCS line). A path outside that scope, a gate-edited test (with or without `--reviewed-base`) and a file too large for the scoped review still route as behavior. A malformed record, or a `fix_check.head` that is not HEAD or an ancestor of it, stops before the release commit. Without the flag nothing changes.

### Tests
- `test/ship-rereview-triggers.test.ts`: an owner fallback edit to a source file and a doc after the fix-check stops without the record and passes Step 16 with it; a new file outside the scope (even when `fix_check.files` lists it), a fix-check head off the branch, a malformed record, an unreadable record file and an empty `fix_check.files` stop; a `fix_check.files` list narrows what is accepted; a test weakened after the fix-check stops with and without `--reviewed-base`.
