enhance(#2573): stamp STATE.md with its commit and surface a freshness hint (#2622)

* enhance(#2573): stamp STATE.md with its commit and surface a commit-age freshness hint

Adds a `state_head` stamp to STATE.md and derives a tri-state commit-age
freshness proxy (state_commits_behind / state_commit_stale) through
state.cjs's readStateHeadFreshness, surfaced on smart-entry signals and as
health W024. The proxy is advisory: classify() deliberately does NOT consume
it (ADR-1787 locks the classification/routing boundary — a signal, not a route).

Composes with #3099 and #1882 (both merged to next after this branch): the
commit-age proxy reads `state_head` while the LAST_ACTIVITY_UNPARSEABLE
diagnostic reads `last_activity` — two different fields, not "two staleness
signals on one field." A new regression test asserts a STATE.md carrying both
an unparseable last_activity AND a valid state_head resolves each independently
(diagnostic fires once; freshness reads state_head, commits_behind 0).

Rebased onto next (flattened): resolved the add/add conflicts in
src/smart-entry.cts (kept both the #2573 freshness import/derivation and the
#3099 diagnostic import/call) and tests/smart-entry.unit.test.cjs (kept both
describe blocks). Drift-ack for health.md's W024 row is unchanged (12348 B).
Tests: smart-entry 62, state/state-transition/health/verify 639, all pass.

* chore(#2573): allowlist health-validation test in the prompt-injection scan

The scanner's `exec('` code-execution pattern matches the benign
`re.exec('<phase-id>')` RegExp method calls in the phase-ID grammar tests
(pre-existing: 16 such calls on next, this PR adds none). The file entered the
diff-mode scan's changed-file set only because #2573's W024 state_head
assertions touch it. Allowlist it alongside the other test files that carry
pattern-matching content as data (same DEFECT.PROMPT-INJECTION-SCAN-COLLISION
class). Scanner self-test 38/0; diff scan 14 files, 0 findings.

**STATE.md now records the commit it was written against** — a new `state_head` frontmatter stamp lets `/gsd-health` and smart-entry report how far the codebase has moved since STATE.md was last written, so a long-stale STATE.md can be discounted rather than read at face value. Health adds advisory `W024` once the gap reaches 20 commits. This is a freshness proxy, not a drift measurement: the count includes commits that never touched anything STATE.md describes, and the stamp refreshes on any state write — so it is always worded as approximate and never gates anything. The stamp is omitted entirely when the commit cannot be resolved to the project's *own* repository — a project nested inside an unrelated checkout reports unknown rather than borrowing that repo's freshness.

Source of truth: `gsd-core/bin/lib/state-document.cjs`. **Commit provenance (#2573):** `state_head` records the full sha STATE.md was written against, stamped by `syncStateFrontmatter` and omitted entirely outside a git repo. `readStateHeadFreshness(cwd, stateHead)` (`src/state.cts`) is the single derivation consumed by both `validate.health` (W024) and smart-entry — it returns `{ state_head, current_commit, commits_behind, commit_stale }` with **tri-state** `commit_stale`: `null` = unknown (no stamp, no git, or a stamp that is not an ancestor of HEAD after a history rewrite), `false` = known fresh, `true` = the codebase has moved. Mirrors the graphify commit-staleness contract deliberately. It is a freshness PROXY, never a drift measurement: `rev-list` counts unrelated commits and the stamp restamps on every state write, so a low count means STATE.md was written recently, not that its contents are accurate — it must never gate.

Supersedes the 14 scattered RMW callbacks in `state.cts` and the direct `writeStateMd` caller in `milestone.cts:552` (phase.cts's former direct caller has since been migrated away); verify's `regenerateState` factory-reset primitive stays as a direct `writeStateMd` call (`verify.cts:1925`). Absorbs `syncStateFrontmatter` + `readModifyWriteStateMd`'s post-sync preservation block; Encoding 3 (`cmdStateBuildFrontmatter`) stays separate — read path concern. Sibling/super-module of the STATE.md Document Module; consumes its `stateReplaceField`/`stateExtractField` primitives. Body section structure (`## Current Position`, `## Session`, etc.) lives as a constants block inside the Module. Append-only transitions (`addDecision`, `addBlocker`, etc.) stay on today's RMW seam for now. Targets the #1760/#1761/#1743/#1695/#1264/#1255/#1257/#3242 bug cluster. Migration per ADR-1372 §T6 sequenced as substrate + `beginPhase` first (PR1), then transition-by-transition with characterization tests first per transition. **ADR-1817 adds `rebuild` as the capstone 11th transition — the body-structure derivability contract.** Re-derives `## Current Position` prose from frontmatter and `## By-Phase Progress` table from phase dirs on disk; preserves `## Session` / `## Decisions` / unknown sections verbatim; de-duplicates `## Session Continuity Archive` (keep most-recent N, default 3); appends a structured audit entry to `## Rebuild Log` (`timestamp`, `kind`, `section`, `before`, `after`, `reason`) for every mutation. Hard idempotency guarantee: a no-mutation rebuild appends no log entry, so two successive invocations on a clean file are byte-identical. Non-overlapping with `sync` (3 lightweight frontmatter fields, auto-triggered) and orthogonal to `auto_prune_state` (age-based removal) — `rebuild` reconciles with current canonical sources, `prune` removes by retention policy, the two compose (rebuild first, then prune).

### STATE.md Status Lifecycle (ADR-2207)
The `Status` field in STATE.md follows a strict lifecycle: `Ready to plan` → `All phases complete` (all phases done, milestone awaiting formal close) → `<version> milestone complete` (terminal, written only by the milestone-close verb `milestoneCompleteCore`) → `Awaiting next milestone` (archived). Phase-completion verbs write `All phases complete` on the last phase — never `Milestone complete` (the overloaded bare value was removed in #2204 per ADR-2207 to decouple phase-level writes from milestone termination). `normalizeStateStatus` maps any status containing "complete" → `completed`, so consumers using the normalized projection (workstream inventory's `status` field, statusline) recognize `All phases complete` without code changes. Note: `isCompletedInventory` (workstream-inventory-builder.cts) intentionally checks only for the terminal `\bmilestone\s+complete\b` / `\barchived\b` — `All phases complete` returns `false` (intermediate, not terminal).

**STATE.md freshness (`W024`).** STATE.md records the commit it was last written
against (`state_head` in its frontmatter). When the codebase has moved a long way
since — 20 commits or more — health adds an advisory noting that STATE.md's
contents should be treated as approximate.
This is a *freshness proxy, not a drift measurement*: the count includes commits
that never touched anything STATE.md describes, and the stamp is refreshed by any
command that writes STATE.md, so a low count means STATE.md was written recently
rather than that its contents are correct. The advisory never changes health's
pass/fail status, and stays silent when the stamp is absent or the project isn't
a git repo — "unknown" is reported as unknown, not as fresh.
