feat(arrays): Modbus String[]/BitInRegister[] array writes reachable; table follows the resolver

The Modbus lane (#741 U3) gave the driver String[] and BitInRegister[] holding-register array encoders, and
moved address resolution to ModbusTagAddressResolution (keys first, a bit region coerced to Bool, strict key
reads), but DriverArrayWriteSupport still listed both array shapes read-only (follow-up F1), so a client
write was BadNotWritable before it reached the driver.

Modbus row now mirrors the driver end to end:
- Keys shape only (region + address both present). A string-only addressString tag is resolved by the
  driver with its own family through a parser Core.Abstractions cannot reference, so it stays read-only
  (pinned: the conservative direction).
- Strict reads as the resolver: address an integer 0-65535; a present region / dataType / byteOrder /
  stringByteOrder string must name a member.
- Coils: any dataType (coerced to Bool), <= 1968 coils (FC15).
- HoldingRegisters (FC16, never Bool): numeric, String ((stringLength+1)/2 registers, stringLength >= 1),
  BitInRegister (1 register, bitIndex 0-15, span ending <= 65535), all within maxRegistersPerWrite.
  FC23 is opt-in and never changes the answer.
- Elements convert (ScadaBridge int[] -> Int16 stays writable); only a String / DateTime node over a
  numeric or bit element is left out, since such an element never converts.

Tests: the parity test's PendingF1 exemption and its guard are gone; the parity matrix is now region x
element type x node type against the real WriteAsync with a spec-conformant device (FC15 > 1968 refused),
plus shape edges at every cap boundary (numeric, String, BitInRegister, coil), strict key reads, FC23
on/off, string-only, the ScadaBridge int[] shape and U3 wire bytes. Core.Abstractions row tests and a
composer test (String[] and BitInRegister[] writable; over-cap, no-stringLength and string-only read-only).

**Elements convert; they are not exact-matched.** ScadaBridge writes CLR `int[]` / `List<int>` to Int16
nodes: the node manager converts a numeric array to the node's element type, and the AB CIP, AB Legacy
and TwinCAT encoders convert each element again to the controller's type (an element that does not fit
is `BadOutOfRange`). Those rows therefore do not key on an exact node `DataType`; they leave out only
node types whose elements never convert — a `DateTime` or `String` node over a numeric element, and a
`Boolean` node on AB Legacy. An array tag deployed read-only before its driver gained an encoder turns

exact node `DataType`; they leave out only node types whose elements never convert — a `DateTime` or
`String` node over a numeric element (on Modbus, over a numeric or bit element; a Modbus `String`
element takes any node type), and a `Boolean` node on AB Legacy. An array tag deployed read-only before its driver gained an encoder turns
writable on the next deploy (a surgical `ArrayWritable` update, no rebuild).
Each "Yes" row is pinned against the driver's real encoder by a parity test in that driver's
