ci(release): fail closed when a release asset has no uploader login

The resolver ran its automation-only asset check only when the collected
uploader list was non-empty. A null uploader login made jq emit an empty third
field, the list collapsed to nothing, and provenance passed although no asset
was shown to be automation-uploaded.

Substitute a sentinel for a missing login so every asset row carries a value
and a null, missing, or login-less uploader fails the existing comparison. The
base64 name and id map is unchanged, and a release with no assets behaves as
before. The resolver test covers an all-null uploader, a null login, a missing
uploader key, a bot asset mixed with a null one, and the all-bot release.

 - UCAN proof chains are validated when supplied, but UCAN capabilities are not consulted by write authorization and the root issuer is not independently trust-anchored. UCANs therefore do not yet grant scoped collaborator access.
 - Agent lifecycle revocation is not enforced by HTTP Signature authorization; do not rely on removing or revoking an agent record to block a compromised signer.
 - Read visibility is not a blanket data-classification boundary: task, IPFS-pin, and Arweave-anchor listings are not repository-gated; withheld path names can be visible to a root reader; and later visibility changes cannot retract content already announced or externally anchored.

 | `GITLAWB_P2P_KEY` | Path to the node's persistent libp2p identity key file, which fixes the PeerId across restarts. Must name a key file inside a directory, such as `/data/keys/p2p.key` or `./keys/p2p.key`. Two kinds of problem are handled differently. A value that cannot name a securable key file at all (a bare filename, `..` traversal, a trailing `/`, the filesystem root, or a `~/` path that escapes home) is refused before the node binds, so the process exits. Anything wrong with the storage itself (a symlinked or non-directory parent, an unsafe ancestor or working directory, an unreadable or malformed key) leaves p2p off while HTTP keeps serving; the node logs it at error level as `p2p_identity_key_load_failed` and sets the `gitlawb_p2p_identity_key_load_failed` metric to 1. Note that `/health` still reports healthy in that state, so alert on the log event or the metric rather than on the health check. Correcting the storage and restarting restores the same PeerId. On Unix a new key is created `0600` inside a `0700` directory. A key directory that grants access beyond its owner is tightened to `0700` on start; one that is closed too far is refused with a `chmod 700` remedy rather than widened, since a directory locked down on purpose is an operator decision. Rotate the key only when the node logs that the directory was group- or world-writable (or the key file itself was group- or world-readable). An ordinary `0755` directory is tightened too, but others could not read a `0600` key or replace its directory entry. An existing key file is never modified: one with group or other bits set is rejected (`chmod 600`), and so is one this node cannot read. On other platforms no permissions are enforced. Default `~/.gitlawb/p2p.key`; point it at a persistent volume when running in a container. |

Also bounds the withheld-blob classification walk (on both the upload-pack serve and receive-pack replication paths) and the push-side pin-candidate discovery (`rev-list` / `cat-file`), each reaped via process-group teardown at the deadline. On the path-scoped upload-pack path the classification walk and the pack serve share ONE deadline, so this value bounds their combined duration rather than granting each stage a full budget: a walk that consumes it leaves the serve nothing and the clone gets a 504. Serving large path-scoped repos may therefore need a higher value than they did when each stage was budgeted separately. Accepted range is 1 to 3153600000 (100 years), since the node derives deadlines from this value and a larger one cannot be represented. |

 These are documented limitations of the current live release. They should be prioritized without breaking existing nodes during rolling upgrades.
 
 ### Repository write authorization defaults
-- `git-receive-pack` verifies HTTP Signatures and, with the default configuration, also requires the pusher DID to be the repository owner: `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` defaults to `true`.
-- **Impact:** With the default setting, a valid signature authenticates the pusher *and* the pusher must be the repository owner. Authentication is not authorization on its own — anyone can mint a `did:key` and sign — so owner enforcement is the only thing that prevents every signed caller from pushing to every repository, including private ones.
-- **Mitigation:** `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=false` is the explicit rolling-upgrade compatibility override. Disable it only for the duration of an upgrade whose pushers are not yet the repo owner, then turn it back on. Delegated and CI keys count as non-owners: a UCAN `git/push` capability is verified but not yet honored for authorization, so they cannot push while this is on.
+- `git-receive-pack` verifies HTTP Signatures, but `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` defaults to `false` for compatibility during rollout.
+- **Impact:** With the default setting, a valid signature authenticates the pusher but does not require that DID to be the repository owner.
+- **Mitigation:** Set `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=true` on nodes where owner-only pushes are required. Confirm that every legitimate pusher uses the owner DID before enabling it.
 
 ### UCAN delegation and revocation
 - The middleware validates a supplied UCAN's complete proof chain, but a root token is accepted without an independently trusted issuer anchor. `Ucan::can` is not yet used by write handlers, so a UCAN does not grant scoped repository access.

-//!
-//! This module owns the recovery classification policy the reviewer
-//! demanded: only a trustworthy, protocol-defined absence authorizes
-//! a paid re-upload. Everything else stays non-terminal.
-//!
-//! Deliberately narrow: the ANS-104 codec lives in `ans104`, and the
-//! gateway probe, the `verify_anchor` path, and the public verify
-//! endpoint are deferred until the uploader, retrieval proof, and
-//! recovery consumer can be proven as one vertical slice (reviewer 2,
-//! round 5). A probe against a real provider contract — same-network
-//! upload/read pair, redirect-safe client, envelope-supplying read
-//! API, provider-documented absence evidence — belongs in that slice,
-//! not here. What ships here is the policy type plus the rule that
-//! only `DefinitivelyAbsent` permits spending another upload.
-

-//! #26 Split PR 4 — `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH` default is consistent across surfaces.
-//!
-//! Reviewer 2 (2026-08-28) closed PR #224 with a P2 finding: SECURITY.md and
-//! README.md both stated the default was `false`, while `Config::enforce_owner_push`
-//! declared `default_value_t = true` and the runtime, .env.example, and the env
-//! var table on the README all agreed with the code. Two operator-facing
-//! surfaces lied about the authorization policy. PR #330 flipped the code
-//! default and updated .env.example / README env table / docs/RUN-A-NODE.md,
-//! but missed these two prose mentions.
-//!
-//! This guard pins the documentation and example surfaces together. Each one
-//! is read off the working tree at test time, not a copy in the binary, so a
-//! revert of the doc edit turns it red:
-//!
-//! 1. `SECURITY.md` says the default is `true`.
-//! 2. `README.md` says the default is `true` in the known-limitations prose.
-//! 3. `README.md` says the default is `true` in the env-var table row.
-//! 4. `.env.example` sets `GITLAWB_ENFORCE_OWNER_PUSH=true`.
-//!
-//! The runtime declared default (`Config::enforce_owner_push`'s
-//! `default_value_t = true`) is protected by the
-//! `enforce_owner_push_is_declared_true_independent_of_the_environment`
-//! unit test in `config.rs`, which reads the parser directly and is
-//! env-independent. The two checks together cover the surfaces that
-//! produced the original doc-vs-code drift; this guard cannot reach into
-//! the binary crate's `Config` type (it is private to the bin target,
-//! which has no `lib.rs`) without a larger refactor, so the contract is
-//! stated as the four documentation/example surfaces above.
-//!
-//! The four are checked independently. A check that just verified "at least
-//! one surface says true" would pass while a stale SECURITY.md lied; a check
-//! that only verified the binary would not catch the doc drift that
-//! produced this finding in the first place.

-2. Compute deep_hash via DataItem::deep_hash (the 8-element arbundles
-   fold) and compare to deephash_hex above.
-3. Verify the Ed25519 signature via DataItem::verify_data_item WITHOUT
-   re-signing.
-4. Assert sha256(signature_bytes) base64url-encodes to the captured id.
-5. Assert to_binary round-trips byte-exact (signature slot preserved).

-Legacy Ethereum script (scripts/ans104_golden.mjs) now signs before
-capture as well; its output is illustrative only — the node verifies
-Ed25519 (sigtype 2) on the verify path.
