This extends dbcb230 to the remaining graph-integrity gaps. In the independent
evaluation these gaps were repository-wide:
- alerta: one symlink, `alerta/app.wsgi`, which is not even source, made 261 of 261
questions unresolved.
- wger and Signal K: a language no frontend reads did the same.
- YesWiki: unparsed files did the same.
Now:
- the partition build records the paths a symlink boundary skipped (a directory
ends in `/`) and the languages no frontend reads;
- `files_unparsed` carries its full paths;
- the scan demotes only questions about an owned path or under an owned directory,
and only questions in an owned language.
Every gap stays in the report as a boundary. A gap that names nothing keeps its
partition-wide or repository-wide reach. Tier-0 pruning stays off, as before.
The tests that pinned repository-wide reach now assert ownership. The one about a
vendor exclusion masking an integrity failure keeps its intent, using a census gap
that names no file.
Retune after protocol-v1; exploratory only.

The first independent evaluation (results-v1.json) completed no question on eight of
eleven projects. On the cases traced, the cause was a census gap: `.eslintrc.js` or
`webpack.config.js` missing from a JavaScript graph, or `contrib/apache/api.wsgi` from a
Python graph, and every question in that language was then marked unresolved. Now only
questions about a named missing file are demoted. The gap is still reported as a
boundary. A gap that names no files still reaches its whole partition.
This is a retune after the evaluation. Per protocol-v1 it cannot be qualified on the
same population.

Two classes the traced PMPro survivors named after 1f91c0b:
- The mapper records every named PHP function as an entry of kind
`function` (3,507 of PMPro's 4,412), and every entry's parameters were
sources, so internal helpers became injections: sendCancelAdminEmail's
$user, a gateway hook callback's $user_id/$morder fired by do_action.
Regions now carry the entry kind; parameters are input only for request
entries (route, parser, privileged surface). Call depth is unchanged, so
such a region is still followed into its callees. JavaScript and Python
emit no `function` entries.
- The object rule is general: a field read continues a flow through the
bare object only if the taint came through the SAME field, or was
assigned to the variable or passed in as a parameter. It now also cuts
$this->Gateway -> this -> $this->user_id (memberorder.php:705).
plausible() memoises the sink test per node and skips the object walk for
paths with no field access (the filter had cost one outlier 101 s -> 160 s).

The 7.8 trace showed the completion loss was a sizer death spiral, not
expensive families: after two kills the budget fell to 3 sink visits and
never recovered, because portions finishing in 25-30 s sat under an assumed
70 s fixed start and read as "no information", so the budget could only
shrink.
- taint.sc streams each answer's own cost (`ms`); the backend carries it as a
reserved `__timing__` list through shards, partitions and reuse.
- The sizer budgets predicted seconds from per-family seconds-per-visit rates
learned from those costs, and measures the fixed start as the wall time the
answers do not explain (median), instead of assuming it.
- A kill names its culprit: the first unanswered id in request order. The ids
behind it never started and are re-queued at once; the culprit is asked
alone after the rest. One that still fails alone after more than a
portion's target is reported as `query_too_expensive`, apart from
`query_failed`.
- Portions grow id by id from the queue head, and a single-portion scan now
goes through the queue too, so a kill there re-asks its remainder.
- Fix: the reuse wrapper wrapped only `run_batch`, so since 7.8 every
portioned query bypassed the graph-reuse cache and its source-root
normalization. `run_batch_once` is wrapped too.

Measured on the plugin, first run of the adaptive sizer. A 600-visit portion answered in 184 s and
the budget was correctly cut to 262. The next portion, 199 visits, answered in 73 s -- three seconds
of work above the 70 s fixed start -- and 3 s over 199 visits read as 0.015 s each, so the budget
grew thirteen-fold to 3,404 visits. The ceiling killed that portion. The harvest kept the 13
answers it had streamed, which is the mechanism working; the sizing was not.
Two rules. A sample with less than ten seconds of work above the fixed start is not extrapolated
from, because it carries no information about cost per visit. And a budget may double per portion,
never more: the sizing may still be wrong, but by at most one factor of two, which a kill undoes.
1,423 tests pass, nineteen skipped; the sizer control asserts both rules.

A hard per-invocation ceiling is all-or-nothing. A batch killed at 301 s lost every answer it had
already computed, and the retry paid a fresh JVM start per part to ask them all again: measured, 116
requests killed at 300 s, then eight restarts carrying the same everywhere-sinks in every part.
Three coordinated changes make portioning, not the cap, the thing that governs cost.
The taint query STREAMS. The census first, then one line per request as it is answered, flushed as
it goes, inside the unchanged fence. The other queries do not stream and need not; the driver
reads both forms, and a legacy single document parses exactly as before.
The driver HARVESTS a kill. The process group is terminated first -- a first cut read the pipe
before killing and a pipe whose writer is alive never reaches end-of-file; the suite own
hanging-engine control sat on that read for twenty-eight minutes -- then the pipe is drained and
every complete line becomes an answer, marked partial. The retry asks only the remainder.
Portion sizing ADAPTS. After each portion the observed seconds per sink visit, less the fixed
start, resizes the rest toward a 120 s target; a portion that did not answer halves the budget
rather than being fitted, because its true cost is unknown and above the ceiling. A portion cut
down to fit puts its remainder back at the front of the queue.
A census LINE carries nothing but the census. A first cut misread a legacy document that carried the
census beside its answers as a census line and dropped every answer it sat beside; a control caught
it. Task 7.8 in contributor-scan.
Verified: 1,423 host tests pass, nineteen skipped, including new controls for the assembler in both
forms and under a kill, for a retry that asks only the remainder, and for the sizer. Not yet
verified: the joern-gated streaming check and the plugin measurement, which wait for the transfer
replay to free the machine and are stated as open in the task.
