Ship the measured Meta Content Seal cohort with auto routing and --vendor override

Full Meta Muse Image support in the invisible-removal path:

- QWEN_ZIMAGE_META_STRENGTH = 0.1: derived by the standard
  worst-boundary-plus-cross-source-spread method over five oracle-bracketed
  generations (data/contentseal/manifest.csv)
- Auto mode: vendor_for_strength routes a file whose only provenance is the
  standalone AI IPTC trainedAlgorithmicMedia tag onto the meta cohort; C2PA
  issuers win first, so Google/OpenAI/Microsoft routing is unchanged. Muse
  WebP outputs place the XMP in a tail chunk, so the scan uses the shared
  chunk-aware metadata.scan_head rather than a plain head read
- Explicit override: --vendor on invisible/all/batch and
  InvisibleOptions.vendor name the cohort on stripped files; naming a cohort
  asserts the watermark is present, so the no-signal gate treats it like
  --force at both the CLI and API seams
- sdxl-zimage has no measured Meta rung: an explicit meta vendor falls to
  the conservative unknown 0.25 rather than inventing one
- identify emits a Content Seal caveat pointing at the removal path
- The legacy visible 'Imagined with AI' mark stays unregistered: a dedicated
  sample hunt (newsroom mockups, community posts, press screenshots, dead
  imagine.meta.com, broken Wayback captures) found no pixel-verifiable
  capture, and the registry rule forbids encoding a corner without one.
  erase --region remains its removal path; outcome recorded in the landscape

Full spread: worst first-clean boundary (0.0525, 0.06] on lighthouse, easiest
source already clean at 0.015. Following the same derivation as the OpenAI and
Microsoft floors (worst clean boundary plus one full observed cross-source
spread): 0.06 + (0.0525 - 0.015) = 0.0975, rounded up to **0.1**. This is a
candidate `meta` floor, not yet a shipped constant: Muse outputs carry no C2PA,
so `vendor_for_strength` has no signal that could route them onto the flat
vendor map automatically. Encoding 0.1 as `QWEN_ZIMAGE_META_STRENGTH` makes
sense only once the tool gains an explicit way to opt into a Meta cohort (for
example a CLI `--vendor meta` override); the default resolution-adaptive curve
(~0.1305 at 2.56 MP) already clears every measured source, so default behavior
needs no change. Oracle verdicts carry a per-generation ID and creation timestamp
embedded in the watermark payload; both survived the 512 px resize and JPEG q85
rows, so payload recovery outlives the detection threshold. Oracle session
limits are per-IP, server-side, and sliding-window: clearing cookies and storage
does not reset them, and a burst exhausts the window minutes after it reopens.
spread): 0.06 + (0.0525 - 0.015) = 0.0975, rounded up to **0.1**. Shipped as
`QWEN_ZIMAGE_META_STRENGTH` with two routing paths: auto mode routes a file
whose only provenance is the standalone AI IPTC tag onto the cohort
(`vendor_for_strength` checks C2PA issuers first, so Google/OpenAI/Microsoft
evidence always wins, and the tag's other users ship no invisible watermark
this profile targets), and `--vendor meta` / `InvisibleOptions.vendor` names the
cohort explicitly on stripped files, implying the scrub runs (naming the cohort
asserts the watermark is present). sdxl-zimage has no measured Meta rung and an
explicit meta vendor there falls to the conservative unknown 0.25. The default
resolution-adaptive curve (~0.1305 at 2.56 MP) also clears every measured
source, so default behavior needed no change. Oracle verdicts carry a
generation ID and creation timestamp embedded in the watermark payload; both
survived the 512 px resize and JPEG q85 rows, so payload recovery outlives the
