feat(vector): the vectored-noun scalar joins the count ledger; the open gate closes the vector leg

The coverage denominator the health-by-accounting ratification named for
the vector family — never built until now, and its absence was measured as
the exact outage class it existed to prevent: a migrated store with
canonical vectors and no derived index opened with the vector leg EMPTY,
served [] from vector search with no error, and the report-driven read gate
had nothing to refuse on (the provider's coverage invariant was honestly
unledgered — the denominator was ours to supply).

- getCanonicalCounts() gains vectors: { all } — the count of canonical
  nouns holding a REAL vector. Incremented where a vector lands (the
  isNew-gated metadata seam for explicit vectors — the same discipline that
  keeps HNSW neighbor-link re-saves from inflating counts; a narrow
  noteVectorLanded hook for the deferred-embed landing, gated on the
  worker's own pre-embed read). Decremented on a proven delete of a
  vectored noun; a vector-uncertain delete marks the ledger suspect rather
  than guessing (no new reads on the delete path). Recounted by the
  sanctioned recount; legacy counts.json derives it once (a deferred noun's
  vector file exists with an empty vector, so presence requires one
  content read at derivation — never on the hot path).
- The open gate's vector leg: when a health-reporting provider claims
  serving while the index holds zero nodes and the ledger proves vectored
  canonical rows exist, open BUILDS (narrated) — routed through the
  provider's idempotent fillFromCanonical() when exposed (the joint door;
  a partial shortfall stays repair()'s operator business), the JS rebuild
  otherwise — or fails typed pre-serve. Scoped exactly: bare isReady()
  providers, migrating providers, and white-box size stubs open as before.

Pinned end-to-end from the partner gate's probe shape (store with vectored
canonical rows, no derived index, reopen → search serves N, never []),
red-proved against the pre-fix path; the inverse (zero vectored rows) opens
without building and serves [] honestly.

/**
* @module tests/integration/vector-leg-open-build
* @description THE LAST RED of the two-engine release gate: a migrated
* store can hold canonical vectored nouns with NO derived vector index
* built. `open()` owns building the derived indexes (reads never build
* see `rebuildIndexesIfNeeded`'s JSDoc); the defect this pins is the vector
* leg's decision silently skipping that build, so `find`/search served `[]`
* with no error and no narration.
*
* A downstream deployment measures this through a native vector provider
* whose own health report can legitimately say `serving: true` even while
* vector COVERAGE is honestly unledgered on its side (an unledgered
* invariant never flips `serving` see `HealthReport`'s derivation laws).
* This repo ships only the JS engine, so the reproduction here uses the
* SAME plugin seam a native provider would (`brain.use({ activate: ctx =>
* ctx.registerProvider('vector', factory) })`, the pattern
* `tests/unit/cold-open-rebuild-gate.test.ts` already established for this
* exact class of gate-decision bug) with a stub that WRAPS the real
* `JsHnswVectorIndex` every method delegates to a genuine engine (so a
* successful rebuild restores REAL, searchable vectors), except `size()`
* (fakes 0 until rebuild runs the "never built" posture) and
* `healthReport()` (always reports `serving: true`, `unledgered:
* ['vector-coverage']` — the "I don't track this yet" posture). This is
* "as close as the JS engine allows": the gap is reproduced at the exact
* decision the fix changes, not approximated by deleting files the JS
* engine's own cold-start heuristic already recovers from unaided (see the
* inverse pin below and cold-open-rebuild-gate.test.ts's already-pinned
* "isReady()===true, size()===0" contract, which this fix deliberately does
* NOT touch bare isReady() has no unledgered concept to hide behind, and
* overriding it would reopen the 48-seconds-per-restart regression pinned
* there).
*
* Pins:
* (1) COVERAGE GAP FORCES THE BUILD: N vectored nouns, a provider that
* claims `serving: true` at `size()===0` open() builds anyway (the
* ledger proves there is something to cover), and search returns real
* results, never `[]`.
* (2) THE INVERSE, HONEST EMPTY: 0 vectored nouns (every embed still
* deferred/unlanded) open() does NOT attempt a rebuild (nothing to
* load; the old blunt "always rebuild when size()===0" heuristic wasted
* a full canonical walk here for zero benefit), and search honestly
* returns `[]` no error, no false coverage-gap narration.
*
* SEARCH VERIFICATION NOTE: pin (1) verifies "search returns real results"
* via `find({ query: <text> })` (semantic search embeds the query, then
* searches), matching the pattern `tests/integration/hnsw-rebuild.test.ts`
* already uses for exactly this "post-rebuild search works" class of pin.
* A raw `find({ vector: <array> })` / `index.search(vector, k)` call was
* tried first and found to reproducibly return only 1 hit after a
* FROM-CANONICAL rebuild (never the full requested `limit`, sometimes not
* even a real neighbor) REGARDLESS of this task's changes: it reproduces
* identically on a plain, unwrapped, un-stubbed reopen with the stock JS
* engine (verified against `hnsw-rebuild.test.ts`'s own construction) and
* is therefore a PRE-EXISTING, orthogonal defect in the JS HNSW engine's
* rebuilt-graph connectivity outside this task's two deliverables (the
* count ledger and the open-gate REBUILD DECISION, not rebuild()'s internal
* search quality). Left for a separate investigation; not touched here.
