David Snelling de79d6b5a4 test(hygiene): close every brain the unit suite creates
Each file opened one or more Brainy instances (beforeEach, or a small
per-test helper like migration-gate-family-scoped's module-level seed())
and never closed them. migration-gate-family-scoped.test.ts now tracks
every brain seed() hands back in a describe-scoped array drained by
afterEach, since the helper itself lives outside the describe block.

/**
* Metadata cold-read guard (verifyMetadataLive) — a downstream deployment
* reported cold `find({ where })` returning a silent `[]` on a freshly-opened
* brain (a native metadata index that reports data but has not loaded its field
* postings). This guard, the field-index counterpart of verifyGraphAdjacencyLive,
* probes a known persisted value on the first filtered find().
*
* RE-POINTED to the health-gate law: the guard NEVER rebuilds and NEVER walks
* the store from a read — a read-path rebuild is exactly the dark-rebuild
* failure mode the law retires (open() alone owns building). When the probe
* cannot serve the known value it raises a loud MetadataIndexNotReadyError
* IMMEDIATELY, with no rebuild attempt in between — never a silent empty
* result that misrepresents existing data.
*
* The 8.0 JS index cold-loads correctly, so we simulate the cold native failure
* mode by intercepting the provider's getIdsForFilter/rebuild.
