The backends spec read as if the Backend trait were a general storage
abstraction and 'two backends, exactly' banned other storage in a
deployment — so a downstream wanting sqlite manifests appeared forced
into implementing a third backend, the exact weld ADR-004 forbids.
- backends-and-dispatch.md: state plainly that the trait is a CAS-tier
contract (immutable digest-keyed entries, GC-shaped list/delete) and
never a host for manifest/index storage; consumer storage is
beside-the-pool. 'Two, exactly' counts trait impls shipped, not
storage per deployment. kv: tier name vs pinned sqlite engine made
explicit.
- ADR-004: add the explicit corollary under the consumer-seams point.
