+||| Layer 5 — the CAPSTONE: a single end-to-end ABI soundness certificate.
+|||
+||| Every prior proof layer of the Otpiser ABI is discharged independently:
+|||
+|||   * Layer 2 (`Otpiser.ABI.Semantics`) — the FLAGSHIP one-for-one restart
+|||     property: restarting a single failed child sets exactly that child to
+|||     Running and leaves siblings byte-for-byte untouched, with the child-id
+|||     set preserved.
+|||   * Layer 3 (`Otpiser.ABI.Invariants`) — a DEEPER, distinct invariant: the
+|||     `rest_for_one` transition is IDEMPOTENT (an algebraic fixpoint law) and
+|||     freezes the untriggered prefix.
+|||   * Layer 4 (`Otpiser.ABI.FfiSeam`) — the FFI SEAM is sound: the C-wire
+|||     result-code encoder is INJECTIVE, so distinct ABI outcomes never collide.
+|||
+||| This module ties them into ONE inhabited value. `abiContractDischarged`
+||| assembles, in a single record, the actual exported witnesses of each layer:
+||| the manifest's domain semantics (flagship + deeper invariant) and the
+||| FFI-seam soundness that carries those outcomes across the language boundary.
+||| If ANY prior layer were unsound — a false positive control, a broken
+||| idempotence law, or a colliding wire encoder — this value would FAIL to
+||| typecheck. Its mere existence is the end-to-end soundness statement:
+|||
+|||     manifest  ->  ABI proofs (flagship + invariant)  ->  FFI seam
+|||
+||| is discharged together, as one contract.
+|||
+||| Strict genuine composition: every field is built ONLY from already-exported
+||| witnesses/theorems of the layers above. No believe_me / idris_crash /
+||| assert_total / postulate / sorry / %hint hacks anywhere.
