shoney.arickathil 4ddb83c2e1 docs: borrow/GC analysis for the database engine, into the iterations
- 9b spec gains section 6 "Ownership, borrows, and GC across the
  engine boundary": two one-way copy gates (no VM pointer enters a
  row, everything a select returns is copied out), so the collector
  never traces engine memory and the engine never touches refcounts
- row views are borrows WITHOUT a runtime net: rows share the VM's
  field encoding but not its header, so no borrow word backs them --
  the compile-time escape rule is load-bearing alone
- cursor stability settled: scans materialize their id list before
  the body, row updates through the view stay legal (raise mode
  updates an indexed column mid-scan and is the proving fixture),
  insert/delete on a table with an open cursor is a new WO-E5xx
- GC-pause interaction recorded: collector runs between statements,
  a long scan delays slices -- accepted, documented
- iteration-7b ordering constraint: GC inference must classify before
  table-field validation, diagnostic names the inference reason --
  noted in 7b story, iteration-9 plan constraints, 9b plan tasks
- stories 09/09b Info sections point at the analysis; 9b plan Tasks
  3/5 carry the enforceable checkboxes (ASan boundary assertion)
