Sovereign Crucible Falsification Resolution

- Security: Fixed path traversal in k8s read_artifact and secured Merkle genesis hash.
- Physics: Replaced Hermitian dot product with strict N-dimensional Kuramoto coupling.
- Physics: Restored Hodgkin-Huxley decay/recovery mechanics (resolving dampening catastrophe).
- Physics: Strictly bounded SDE Geometric Brownian noise to |T_tau|^2 <= 1.0.
- Architecture: Fixed coroutine evaluation trap in test suite and stripped dead globals.
- Architecture: Integrated Lamport Clocks for deterministic causal ordering.
- Academic: Re-aligned all 5 LaTeX papers with actual code mechanisms, added citations, and recompiled PDFs.
