FABRIC-3.md §H.10: close pin-authority choke point -- session owns both directions

Decided: session_set_pinned()/session_is_pinned() (or equivalent) are the
sole read AND write path for pin state -- nothing, including existing
Stadium code, touches STADIUM_FLAG_PIN on the patron header directly
anymore. Not just a write-side guard.

Two smaller, lower-risk items flagged in the same pass, not yet acted on:
- **Pin-authority sync risk (H.2).** Session.pinned is authoritative over Stadium's
`STADIUM_FLAG_PIN` bit — needs a single choke-point API so nothing ever writes the Stadium
flag directly and lets the two drift out of sync. Not yet designed.
Two smaller, lower-risk items flagged in the same pass:
- **CLOSED 2026-09-02 — pin-authority choke point (H.2).** Session.pinned is authoritative
over Stadium's `STADIUM_FLAG_PIN` bit. Decided: **full choke point at the session level,
both directions** — both writing and reading pin state go exclusively through session-owned
functions (e.g. `session_set_pinned()` / `session_is_pinned()`); nothing, including existing
Stadium code, reads `STADIUM_FLAG_PIN` directly off the patron header anymore. Session is
the sole authority for both write and read, not just the write path.
- **Elevation trigger not yet usable (H.5/H.7).** Rides Hermes messaging, which per this
document's own standing completion criterion (D.1) isn't the real implementation yet.
Correct on paper, not usable until that substrate exists — expected, not a flaw.
