glm-5.2 73724b8a1d feat(core,call): implement ADR-050 dynamic resource ownership — ownership store, resource_id_path, check signature, dispatch wiring
Implements the 4-task DAG for runtime-spawned resource ownership so
AccessControl::check can answer "does this identity own this specific
container/TTY/process" instead of relying only on static
Identity.resources grants.

1. core/ownership-store-trait: OwnershipProvider (sync read) +
   OwnershipStore (async write) traits + InMemoryOwnershipStore +
   OwnershipError in alknet-core. Fourth instance of the repo/adapter
   pattern (ADR-033), mirroring CredentialStore/store.rs.

2. call/registry/operation-spec-resource-id-path: resource_id_path
   field on OperationSpec — JSON pointer into input for resource ID
   extraction. Single field addition, all ~40 construction sites across
   alknet-call + alknet-http updated to pass None (no semantic change).

3. call/registry/access-control-ownership-check: check() signature
   gains resource_id + Option<&dyn OwnershipProvider>. 3-case decision
   tree: ownership Some + resource_id Some -> owns(); ownership Some +
   resource_id None -> owns_any() (list scope-gate); ownership None ->
   static Identity.resources fallback (backward compat). 7 call sites
   updated to (None, None) — including a 7th in alknet-http/gateway_routes
   not listed in the original spec.

4. call/registry/dispatch-resource-id-extraction: wire the dispatch
   path. OperationContext gains ownership field; Dispatcher/CallAdapter
   gain with_ownership_provider builders; invoke/invoke_streaming/
   invoke_with_policy extract resource_id via spec.resource_id_path
   and thread context.ownership to check(). extract_json_pointer helper
   handles $.field syntax (graceful None on missing/non-string). 20
   OperationContext literals updated across both crates.

Backward compatibility is load-bearing throughout: ownership=None
falls back to the existing static resource-check path. Deployments
without runtime-spawned resources wire nothing and behave identically.

821 tests pass workspace-wide (was ~770); clippy clean; fmt clean.
Task specs marked done.

## Description
Wire the dispatch path to: (a) extract `resource_id` from the operation
input using `spec.resource_id_path`, and (b) thread an `OwnershipProvider`
to `AccessControl::check`. This is the task that makes the dynamic
ownership model actually work end-to-end. Per ADR-050 §2a and §4a.
### Where the wiring happens
The dispatch flow is:
```
dispatch() // protocol/dispatch.rs:220
→ extract input from payload // line 238
→ build_root_context(...) // line 246
→ registry.invoke(name, input, context) // line 261
→ look up registration // registration.rs:123
→ check visibility // registration.rs:128
→ check ACL: acl.check(...) // registration.rs:142 ← THIS IS WHERE resource_id + ownership go
→ call handler
```
`registry.invoke()` (in `registration.rs:116`) has access to both `input`
and `registration.spec` (which now has `resource_id_path`). The resource ID
extraction and ownership provider threading happen here.
### resource_id extraction (ADR-050 §2a)
In `invoke()` and `invoke_streaming()`, before the `check()` call:
```rust
// Extract resource_id from input using spec.resource_id_path
let resource_id = registration.spec.resource_id_path
.as_ref()
.and_then(|path| extract_json_pointer(&input, path));
```
`extract_json_pointer` parses a JSON pointer like `"$.containerId"` and
extracts the value at that path from the input `Value`. If the pointer is
`None`, or the path doesn't exist in the input, `resource_id` is `None`.
**JSON pointer parsing:** the `resource_id_path` uses the `$.field` syntax
(JSON Pointer with a leading `$`). Use the `serde_json` pointer API or a
small helper. `serde_json::Value::pointer()` takes a `/field` path — strip
the leading `$.` and replace with `/`, or use a simple helper that handles
the `$.` prefix. If the path is malformed or the field is missing,
`resource_id` is `None` (graceful — the check will deny if the spec
requires a resource_type but no ID is available).
### OwnershipProvider threading
The `OwnershipProvider` needs to be available in `invoke()`. Two options:
**Option A: thread it through `OperationContext`.** Add an
`ownership: Option<Arc<dyn OwnershipProvider>>` field to
`OperationContext`. `build_root_context` populates it from the
`CallAdapter` (which holds `Arc<dyn OwnershipProvider>`). `invoke()` reads
`context.ownership.as_deref()` and passes it to `check()`.
**Option B: hold it on the `OperationRegistry`.** The registry holds
`Option<Arc<dyn OwnershipProvider>>` and `invoke()` reads it directly.
**Recommendation: Option A (OperationContext).** It's consistent with how
`identity`, `capabilities`, and `env` are threaded — all on
`OperationContext`. The registry stays stateless (no new field); the
context carries the ownership provider the same way it carries the
identity provider's output. The assembly layer wires the ownership
provider into the `CallAdapter` at construction, and
`build_root_context` threads it onto the context.
### What changes
1. **`OperationContext` gains `ownership: Option<Arc<dyn OwnershipProvider>>`**
(in `operation-registry.md` / `operation-context.md` / the struct in
`registry/operation_context.rs` or wherever `OperationContext` is
defined). `None` when no ownership provider is wired (backward compat —
`check` falls back to static path).
2. **`build_root_context`** (in `protocol/dispatch.rs:148`) populates
`ownership` from `self.ownership_provider` (a new field on
`Dispatcher`/`CallAdapter`, set at construction by the assembly layer).
3. **`invoke()` and `invoke_streaming()`** (in `registration.rs`) extract
`resource_id` from `input` via `spec.resource_id_path`, then call
`acl.check(identity.as_ref(), resource_id.as_deref(),
context.ownership.as_deref())`.
4. **`invoke_with_policy()` in `connection.rs:311`** — the composition path
(internal calls via `OperationEnv::invoke`). Same pattern: extract
`resource_id` from `input` using the child op's `resource_id_path`,
thread the ownership provider from the parent context.
5. **`Dispatcher` / `CallAdapter`** gains an
`ownership_provider: Option<Arc<dyn OwnershipProvider>>` field, set at
construction. `None` by default (backward compat — deployments without
runtime-spawned resources don't wire one).
### What this task does NOT do
- Does NOT build a persistence adapter — the in-memory
`InMemoryOwnershipStore` from `core/ownership-store-trait` is the default.
- Does NOT build any handler that calls `record`/`revoke` — that's
downstream crate work (alknet-docker, etc.).
- Does NOT change `services/list` / `services/schema` / `services/list-peers`
— those stay on the `(None, None)` path (scope-gating only, no per-resource
ownership check at discovery time).
### Tests
- Integration test: an operation with `resource_type` + `resource_id_path`
+ an `OwnershipProvider` wired → `check` consults the provider → Allowed
when the provider says owns.
- Integration test: same setup but provider says not owns → Forbidden.
- Integration test: `resource_id_path` points to a field missing from input
`resource_id` is None → `list` path (owns_any) or Forbidden (if
resource_type requires a specific ID).
- Integration test: no ownership provider wired (`ownership: None` on
context) → static `Identity.resources` fallback (backward compat).
- Unit test: `extract_json_pointer` extracts `$.containerId` from
`{"containerId": "abc123"}``Some("abc123")`.
- Unit test: `extract_json_pointer` on missing field → `None`.
- Unit test: `resource_id_path: None``resource_id: None`.

> threading the ownership provider via `OperationContext` (consistent with
> how identity, capabilities, and env are threaded), not via the registry
> (which stays stateless). The assembly layer wires
> `Option<Arc<dyn OwnershipProvider>>` into the `CallAdapter` at
> construction; `None` is the default for deployments without

> is a small helper — `$.containerId` → look up `containerId` in the input
> Value. Missing fields are graceful (None), not errors — the check denies
