Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 148c4aa12c Fix silent disk overwrite of unrecognized Artemis disks
The generic block subsystem (blk_format_or_load_disk) auto-reformatted
any disk lacking its own low-level 'STFR' header at attach time, before
Artemis's Forth-level BLANK/LithosAnanke/Unrecognized classification
ever ran -- so ART-HALT-UNRECOG's "Disk preserved" message was false.

Split detection from commit: an unrecognized/blank disk is now left
PROVISIONAL (geometry computed in memory only, all writes refused)
until explicitly confirmed via the new blk_subsys_confirm_format() /
BLK-CONFIRM-FORMAT primitive. Artemis calls it from ART-FORMAT and
ART-RESUME, never from ART-HALT-UNRECOG.

Verified on amd64/aarch64/riscv64: parity intact (identical dict_hash),
normal recognized-disk resume + persist-read unaffected, and a
regenerated disk/artemis-unrecognized-test.img (the old copy had itself
been silently corrupted by this exact bug) now stays byte-for-byte
identical across a halted boot on amd64 and riscv64.

Design of Experiments (DoE) campaign data and analysis for the LithosAnanke kernel.

  • bare_metal/ — the bare-metal DoE experiment: blind full-factorial 2⁴ runs measuring the L8 Jacquard mode selector's effect on the Steady-State Machine across amd64/aarch64/riscv64. See experiments/bare_metal/README.md for the full directory layout (runs/, latest/, analysis/{charts,tables,report}).

Hosted-VM DoE campaigns (factorial/heartbeat/ablation studies) live under docs/working/experiments/ instead — this top-level directory is specifically the kernel/bare-metal side.
