Marius CiepluchandClaude Fable 5.1 b3b47ad757 feat(corpus-seeded-mechanisms): the mechanisms lever runs from ousast improve
Review rounds 3-5 remediations (Req 5, 7).

- ousast improve resolves candidates from the target's calibration dir,
  then the working directory's (where `mechanisms export` writes), and
  admits into <target>/.openultrasast/calibration/mechanisms.jsonl,
  where a scan of that target reads; --mechanism-candidates,
  --mechanism-store, --no-mechanisms; --dry-run redirects the store to
  scratch; accepted rounds print admit/retract <id>.
- run_improvement threads the store paths; RoundOutcome carries the
  mechanism edits; reverted mechanism keys are blocked outright; a
  no-gain admission is rejected as mechanism_no_gain; a retraction may
  name an admitted record that left the candidate set.
- leave-one-out forwards variant-search degradations and pins the
  containment and label rules; mechanisms export defaults to the
  candidates file so it never re-admits a tombstone.
- design §Lever rewritten to the implemented gate; README and docs show
  export -> improve -> scan.

"""Bounded-lever edit model + validator for the self-improvement loop (tasks 7.1, 7.2).
The loop may only adjust governance *data* through two bounded levers and never the
two authorities a human/upstream owns: detection **pattern text** and the 0-5 CWE
**severity**. Edits are typed so pattern/severity changes are structurally
impossible; the validator additionally enforces status/bounds/staging/resolution.
