## Description

Close out the fork's bookkeeping and verify the test floor end-to-end
(ADR-018's adoption discipline; ADR-011's tests clause):

- **`PROVENANCE.md` delta register**: entries for every delta the port
  actually made, category-tagged per ADR-018's categories — the three
  watcher deltas (W-1, W-2, dead-man's switch), the table-family
  rename, the bootstrap re-keying, the drops (recorded as
  not-ported), the re-derivation (new code, contract-derived names),
  and any mechanical adaptations the port surfaced that the plan
  didn't anticipate. Each entry: what, why, the decision citation.
- **License/provenance cross-check**: the notice matches the actual
  ported content; the register's revision citation (`f4e53c6`) matches
  what was actually diffed.
- **Test floor**: run the full engine-crate test suite (inherited +
  contract-property) as one gate; fix or explicitly record any
  inherited test that the deltas legitimately changed (e.g. the
  dead-man's-switch panic test becomes a watcher-fatal-death test).
- **Lineage-diff sanity pass**: produce (locally, not committed) the
  diff of the substrate subtree vs. the honker-core sources at
  `f4e53c6` and skim it for accidental divergence — anything not
  covered by a register entry is either fixed or registered. This is
  the wave-2 review's primary input.

## Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] `PROVENANCE.md` register complete: every delta categorized and
      cited; no unregistered divergence from the lineage
- [ ] License notice accurate; revision citation verified
- [ ] Full substrate test floor green in one run; changed inherited
      tests documented in the register
- [ ] Lineage diff skimmed; findings recorded
