Joseph Doherty b80ac07942 docs(grpc): transport matrix + correct the obsolete v12 version-gate note
Document the WCF-vs-gRPC surface and fix a stale claim.

- README: add a "Transport matrix (WCF vs gRPC)" section with a per-operation
  table. Mark the config ops the gRPC server exposes-but-untooled with a distinct
  legend state (recovered RPC + bytes buffer named) vs genuinely unavailable, so
  "not tooled" is not conflated with "not possible".
- README: document the gRPC live-test env vars (HISTORIAN_GRPC_HOST/_PORT/_TLS/
  _DNSID/_TIMEOUT/_WRITE_SANDBOX_TAG) and refresh the Status section (test count
  + the live-verified gRPC surface).
- The "gRPC requires VerifyServerInterfaceVersion=false against a v12 server" note
  was obsolete: the gate already accepts History 11 AND 12 (AcceptedVersions), and
  the live gRPC suite runs with the default verification on. Corrected in the
  README, CLAUDE.md, and the HistorianServerVersionGate docstring.
