v1.91.7.0 feat: add functional QA and pre-publication docs checks (#2983)

* feat: add surface-aware exploratory QA and ship documentation gates

* test: preserve delegated QA setup authority after main integration

* fix(qa): clarify exploration order and preserve report artifacts

* test(qa): follow the shared setup reference directly

* refactor(ship): make verification and recovery routes explicit

* test(ship): align evidence and review guards with explicit routes

* fix(workflows): clarify ship recovery and functional QA evidence

* fix(workflows): clarify approval recovery and full QA coverage

* refactor(workflows): order review transactions and clarify ship state

* fix(ship): clarify final verification and fail closed at publication

* fix(evals): attribute native atomic documentation writes

* fix(ship): clarify recovery and documentation lifecycle guidance

* fix(test): preserve observed native placeholder styling in CI

* fix(codex): report watchdog timeouts without a process-exit race

* Checkpoint functional QA implementation and workflow validation repairs

* Fix documentation and shared-review fixture contracts

* docs: clarify judge reuse and evaluation supervision

* test: align review evidence and selected case contracts

* test: verify append-only documentation checkpoints and recovery

* fix: qualify QA workflows and CI validation repairs

* fix: launch shared-libs fixture scripts on Windows

* fix: qualify QA deadlines, fixture isolation, and shard cleanup

* fix: preserve qualified QA and cancellation repairs

* fix: enforce functional fixture authority and share strict event decoding

* fix: retain free-test evidence and explain recovery

* fix: reject malformed native evidence after decoder consolidation

* test: use reliable capture for telemetry privacy filters

* test: refresh measured quick coverage and document validation costs

* Fix native fixture receipts and preserve VM validation evidence

* Align negative judge controls with upstream clarity policy

* Fix report-only QA preparation and public evidence handling

* Clarify QA-only preparation and current-report preservation

* Stream Ship quality judgments with an explicit 64k response contract

* Validate compact judge reasoning locally with supported wire schema

* Align functional QA fixture instructions with evidence acceptance

* Bind native browser diagnostics to execution evidence and align review verdicts

* Preserve native diagnostic line boundaries

* Serialize functional QA evidence from native captures

* Keep large QA evidence fixture payload out of Windows argv
