fix(#4135): headline baseline coverage, opt-in strict gate, git-history widening (#4376)

* test(#4135): regression rows for pristine regen coverage collapse

RED skeleton: src/pristine-baseline.cts exports findPristineInGit as a
null-returning stub (wired into verifyFile after the #4145 orphan tier,
behavior-neutral) so the git-history rows fail behaviorally, not at require
time. Failing-first rows: baseline_covered aggregate on a 1-of-13
multi-version fixture, coverageHeadline typed renderer, the opt-in
--min-baseline-coverage gate (exit 3, >= threshold semantics, vacuous-pass
and malformed-value boundaries), git-history baseline recovery (dropped-line
catch + surviving-line verify + older-commit hop), findPristineInGit unit,
Step 5a workflow headline contract, and the installer-side
describeBaselineCoverage honest N-of-M summary with the collapse disk-state
pinned. Negative-space rows pin today: non-git ok_no_baseline posture,
no-match-no-adoption, #3657 drift never rescued, canonical precedence, and
no git tier without --pristine-dir.

* fix(#4135): headline baseline coverage, opt-in strict gate, git-history widening

The #3407 promotion rule regenerates gsd-pristine/ baselines from the
INCOMING release source and keeps only candidates byte-identical with the
OUTGOING recorded hash — correct in isolation, but on a multi-version jump
the surviving set is precisely the files upstream did NOT change. The
verifier then reports ok_no_baseline (advisory, exit 0) for everything
else, and no surface distinguishes a 12-of-13-unverified green run from a
fully-verified one: the human summary printed Checked/Failures only, the
JSON had no coverage aggregate, and the installer's update output gave
per-bucket counts without N-of-M framing.

All three issue directions, none exclusive:

- Report coverage prominently: --json gains an additive baseline_covered
  aggregate; the human summary leads with 'Baseline coverage: N of M
  file(s)...' on every run plus an advisory section naming each skipped
  file and reason; the installer prints an honest covered-of-modified line
  via the exported describeBaselineCoverage helper (typed return, exact
  contract); workflow Step 5a computes and prints the headline before any
  pass/fail framing.
- Fail louder on low coverage: opt-in --min-baseline-coverage <0..1>
  exits with new documented code 3 when coverage falls below the
  threshold (>= semantics; empty run vacuously passes; content failure
  exit 1 outranks it; malformed values are usage errors, exit 2).
  Default posture unchanged — no_baseline stays advisory per #934.
- Widen the promotion rule (its only trustworthy form): when no baseline
  resolves under gsd-pristine/ and a hash is recorded, the verifier now
  recovers the baseline from the config dir's own git history — the
  workflow's documented Option A — anchored by the same authority every
  tier trusts, exact pristine_hashes sha-256 equality. Read-only
  (git log/git show, windowsHide per #685), bounded (100 commits/file,
  10s/subprocess), null-on-any-failure so ok_no_baseline remains the
  universal fallback. Tier order: canonical join -> #4145 orphan scan ->
  git history -> OK_NO_BASELINE; #3657 drift and canonical precedence
  untouched.

Hash validation in saveLocalPatches is NOT relaxed — the collapse is
legitimate conservatism; hiding it was the bug. Measured on the issue's
shape (13 files, 12 changed upstream, 1.10->1.12): non-git installs report
baseline_covered 1/13 with the headline and can gate at exit 3; a
git-managed config dir with the outgoing bytes in history verifies 13/13.

Review fixes folded in: workflow headline derives the unverified count
from checked - baseline_covered (not the drift+no_baseline sum), and the
new site-scoped allow-test-rule annotation carries its ADR-456 see-ref on
the marker line.

Emitted-Drift-Ack-Growth: reapply-patches.md — #4135 — +20 lines / ~1.5 KB, prose and bash only: two additive parse lines (BASELINE_COVERED, CHECKED_COUNT), a Step 5a coverage-headline block printed BEFORE any pass/fail statement (documents the opt-in --min-baseline-coverage exit-3 gate), and one Option B sentence noting the verifier's read-only git-history fallback. No step ordering, gate, tool-invocation, or dispatch shape changed; 5a's fail/drift/advisory handling is unchanged, the headline only precedes it.

### Option C: No baseline available (two-way fallback)
If neither git history nor pristine snapshots are available, fall back to two-way comparison — but with **strengthened heuristics** (see Step 3).

**Baseline coverage headline (#4135)** — BEFORE any pass/fail statement, print the coverage
N-of-M line. A run where 12 of 13 files were not diff-verified must never present the same way
as a fully-verified one:
```text
Baseline coverage: {BASELINE_COVERED} of {CHECKED_COUNT} file(s) verified against a pristine
baseline ({CHECKED_COUNT - BASELINE_COVERED} unverified)
```
The verifier also reports this on every run (JSON field `baseline_covered`; the human summary
leads with the same line). Operators who want the gate itself to fail on low coverage (cautious
environments) pass the opt-in strict flag when invoking the verifier:
`--min-baseline-coverage <fraction between 0 and 1>` — below the threshold the verifier exits
with code 3 (a real content failure still exits 1 and outranks it). Without the flag the
default advisory posture is unchanged.
**If `NO_BASELINE_COUNT` is greater than 0**, emit an advisory warning (non-blocking — the gate still exits 0 for these files). Do NOT halt:
