docs(session): make the boundary's position and ownership conditional

Documentation only; no behavior change.

`firstLiveSeq`'s JSDoc still stated the boundary sits at that seq
unconditionally. Verified reachable on a plain production path: pick up a log,
do no work, pick it up again — the seed already ends in a boundary, so it is
not re-marked and `events[firstLiveSeq]` is undefined. Both that claim and the
firehose-gap sentence are now conditional, with the locate rule ("scan for the
last boundary") matching what types.ts already said.

`repair.ts`'s header claimed this module supplies the boundary. It does not —
the constructor does; this module supplies the activity read that must skip it.
Reworded, and it now names the closer timestamp leak, which is the one real
coupling that justifies `lastActivityTime` living beside the repair synthesis.

Recorded that `Session`'s constructor is the boundary's only legitimate writer,
since the invariant companion constrains nothing and a plugin-side append would
silently turn live brackets below it into dead history.

 ## The inherited-history boundary: `session/inherited`
 
-A seeded session — resume, fork, or replay — appends this log-only event as its first live write, at the seq its `firstLiveSeq` names. It is the durable projection of that field: `firstLiveSeq` answers "which prefix did I inherit" for a consumer holding the object, this event for one holding only stored bytes. The payload is empty, so position and `time` carry the whole meaning, and it produces no message. An empty seed writes nothing, and a seed already ending in one is not re-marked, so reopening an untouched session does not grow its log per open.

+An empty seed writes nothing, and a seed already ending in a boundary is not re-marked, so reopening an untouched session does not grow its log per pickup. Locate the boundary as the log's LAST one rather than at `firstLiveSeq`: after a pickup with no work, the next one leaves it below that seq.
 
 It exists because inherited history and live work are otherwise byte-identical, which defeats any plugin owning a standalone open/close bracket: an unmatched `compact/start` reads the same whether the writer crashed mid-compaction or is compacting right now. An opening marker below the boundary belongs to an ended lifecycle, whatever ended it (a crash, a succeeding process, or a fork out of a still-running parent), so its owner may treat it as dead. That covers only brackets *this* session inherited: a concurrently live session holding an open bracket over the same history has its own boundary elsewhere, so tolerating concurrent writers needs a liveness signal beyond the log. Core writes the boundary and reads nothing from it — a bracket's vocabulary stays with its owning plugin, which is why crash repair closes turn/step/tool boundaries and never `compact/*`.

+空种子不写入任何内容；种子本身已以该边界结尾时不会重复标记，因此重新打开一个未被改动的会话不会每次拾起都增长日志。定位边界应取日志中的**最后一条**，而不是读 `firstLiveSeq`：在一次没有产生工作的拾起之后，下一次拾起会让边界落在该 seq 之下。
 
 它之所以必要，是因为继承历史与实时工作在字节层面完全相同，这会让任何拥有独立开／闭括号的插件失效：一个未配对的 `compact/start`，无论写入方是在压缩中途崩溃、还是此刻正在压缩，读起来都一样。边界之下的开启标记属于一个已结束的生命周期，无论结束原因为何（崩溃、进程接替，或从仍在运行的父会话 fork 出来），因此其所有方可以视之为已死。这只覆盖*本*会话继承的括号：另一个并发存活的会话可能在同一段历史上持有开放括号，而它自己的边界在别处，因此容忍并发写入方还需要日志之外的存活信号。核心写入该边界但不从中读取任何内容——括号的词汇表仍归其所属插件，这也正是崩溃修复只关闭轮次／步骤／工具边界而从不处理 `compact/*` 的原因。
