feat(#1187): per-module Stryker mutation-score ratchet (ADR-456 80% floor) (#1200)

* feat(#1187): per-module mutation-score ratchet + graduate core-utils

ADR-456's 80% mutation floor was unenforceable as a single global break=50:
4 of 6 covered modules sit at 63-79% and forcing them to 80 would require
brittle exact-string assertions on equivalent string-literal mutants (a
Goodhart's-Law trap). Instead, each covered module declares a minScore floor
(locked at its measured score, TARGET 80) enforced per CI shard via
stryker --break, ratcheting up over time without brittle tests.
- mutation-matrix.cjs: minScore per module + TARGET_MUTATION_SCORE=80, emitted
  in the matrix; require.main guard + exports for testability.
- mutation.yml: per-shard --break <minScore>.
- stryker.config.mjs: global break 50->60 as a local backstop (CI uses minScore).
- Graduated core-utils (measured 77.5%, floor 75).
- context-utilization 79.5->92.3% via behavioral killers (state classification
  outputs + error-value contract, not exact-string matches) -> minScore 80 (TARGET).
- ratchet-integrity guard test (28 cases).

* fix(#1187): pass mutation break via MUTATION_BREAK env (no stryker --break flag)

Adversarial review caught that Stryker 9.x has no --break CLI flag, so the
per-shard 'stryker run --break <minScore>' errored out every mutation shard.
Read the per-module floor from process.env.MUTATION_BREAK in stryker.config.mjs
and set it per shard via env in mutation.yml. Red-green verified: MUTATION_BREAK=99
exits 1, =80 exits 0. Also make the ratchet guard monotonic (RATCHET_BASELINE
floors; lowering a floor now fails the guard unless the baseline is edited).

* fix(#1187): fail closed on bad MUTATION_BREAK + monotonic ratchet baseline

Code review: Number(env)||60 failed OPEN — an empty/invalid MUTATION_BREAK
(e.g. a future module missing minScore -> matrix expands to '') silently
degraded the shard to break 60, letting a high-floor module regress undetected.
resolveMutationBreak() now returns 60 only when the env is truly unset (local
backstop) and THROWS on present-but-empty/non-numeric/out-of-range (fail closed);
stryker.config.mjs imports it via createRequire. Also make RATCHET_BASELINE an
equality mirror (=== not >=) so any floor change is explicit in review and no
floor can be silently lowered. Tests: 46 (incl resolveMutationBreak cases).

* fix(#1187): recalibrate config-schema/prompt-budget floors to CI scores

First CI mutation run failed two shards: the floors were set from local Stryker
runs whose TIMEOUTS were counted as kills (env-variable), inflating scores. CI
runs with timeout~0, so the real deterministic scores are lower:
- config-schema: local 69.7% -> CI 54.55% (5 local timeouts vanished) -> floor 52
- prompt-budget: local 99.6% -> CI 68.33% (239 local timeouts vanished) -> floor 66
Calibrate floors from CI (the documented source of truth) and record the lesson
in the comment so future floors aren't set from timeout-inflated local runs.
Baseline updated to match. The other 5 shards passed (deterministic CI scores
above their floors).

// ── Per-module mutation score ratchet ─────────────────────────────────────────
// ADR-456 / issue #1187: every covered module declares a minScore floor.
//
// HOW THE RATCHET WORKS:
// • minScore locks in the current measured mutation score (minus a 1–2 pt
// margin for run-to-run timeout variance).
// • CI fails a shard if the module's live score drops below its minScore.
// • Raise minScore (never lower) as a module's tests improve.
// • The goal is every module reaching TARGET_MUTATION_SCORE (80).
//
// GOODHART SAFETY: scores are improved by writing genuine behavioural
// assertions that kill real mutants — never by adding brittle exact-string
// matches on incidental output. A justified `// Stryker disable` on a
// confirmed equivalent mutant is acceptable.
//
// HOW TO UPDATE:
// 1. Run the per-module Stryker shard locally.
// 2. Note the reported score.
// 3. Set minScore = floor(score) - 1 (never lower than current value).
// 4. Open a PR — the CI gate will enforce the new floor on every future run.
/** Long-run target for all modules (ADR-456). */
const TARGET_MUTATION_SCORE = 80;
// ── Single source of truth: covered modules ───────────────────────────────────
// Each entry: { cjs: '<built artifact>', tests: ['tests/...', ...] }
// A module is "covered" iff its tests are wired into the Stryker command runner
// (stryker.config.mjs commandRunner.command). Mutating an uncovered module can
// only ever produce survived mutants — so we scope strictly to these 6.
// Each entry: { cjs: '<built artifact>', tests: ['tests/...', ...], minScore: N }
//
// minScore is the CI break threshold for this module's shard.
// Floors are measured scores minus 1–2 pts for run-to-run variance.
// Measured CI scores 2026-06-14 (issue #1187, timeout-free — source of truth):
// context-utilization 92.31% → floor 80 (target already met)
// prompt-budget 68.33% → floor 66 (local was 99.6% — TIMEOUT INFLATION; CI is the truth)
// frontmatter 63.35% → floor 62
// adr-parser 69.30% → floor 68

// active-workstream-store 81.91% → floor 80
// core-utils 77.52% → floor 75
//
// LESSON: floors MUST be calibrated from CI mutation runs (CI runs with
