docs: source-verified deferment register + correct 17 drifted docs
v2-ci / build (push) Successful in 4m52s
v2-ci / unit-tests (push) Failing after 15m58s

Adds deferment.md — a source-verified inventory of new-driver status, all 17
open issues, in-code deferrals, open live gates and plan bookkeeping. Every
claim was checked against src/ and git, not against documentation.

Headline finding: three subsystems are authored, persisted and shipped but
never executed —
  * Node ACLs: IPermissionEvaluator/TriePermissionEvaluator have zero
    production consumers and OtOpcUaNodeManager never references them, yet
    ClusterAcls.razor authors NodeAcl rows and ConfigComposer.cs:51 ships them
    in every artifact. An authored deny rule has no effect.
  * IRediscoverable / IHostConnectivityProbe raise into the void (#518/#507);
    nothing ever writes a DriverHostStatus row.
  * DriverTypeRegistry is vestigial, so no factory passes a tier and every
    driver runs Tier A with the Tier-C protections dormant.

Also records the Calculation driver as picker-visible but unauthorable
(DriverConfigModal has no case) — the "registered but unauthorable" class
recurring after the Sql picker defect — and notes that no parity test guards
DriverConfigModal/DeviceModal, which is why it survived review.

Documentation corrections (source-verified):
  * ReadWriteOperations.md claimed "a denied read never hits the driver" via
    four types that do not exist in src/. Bannered + struck through; a security
    review reading that page would have concluded a per-node ACL gate exists.
  * CLAUDE.md: the Change Detection sentence was false (DriverHost consumes
    nothing); the mesh Phase 4 and Phase 5 live gates and the auto-down 1-vs-1
    gate had all PASSED; the ScriptedAlarmState table was already dropped.
  * driver-expansion tracking: Modbus RTU and SQL poll are merged, not
    pending — its command table would have made someone rebuild two shipped
    drivers in a fresh worktree.
  * drivers/README.md: dead DriverTypeRegistry paragraph, retired
    SystemPlatform namespace kind, missing Sql + Calculation rows, missing
    Modbus RTU-over-TCP transport.
  * TwinCAT.md/Galaxy.md promised an address-space rebuild that never happens.
  * Historian.md gained the #491 unproven-value-capture pointer.
  * IncrementalSync.md and AddressSpace.md bannered as wholesale v2-era (the
    rewrite is recorded as still owed, not done here); four v2 status docs
    bannered as historical; three wrong-name-for-a-live-type fixes.

Left deliberately untouched: the secrets NoOpSecretReplicator line, which
makes a security claim and needs the real behaviour identified rather than a
rename.
