docs(media): the array's write doors, and why survivors are re-verified by size
A folder-rename pass ran on the media array with no journal anywhere: no jsonl on the array, no bash history, no cron/timer/job artifact, no other host ever authenticating. The door was GNOME Files mounting the array over SFTP (gvfsd-sftp -> sftp-server as dank): rename() with no shell and no journal, bumping only the renamed directory's ctime. Copyparty cannot do this (its bind is ro at the mount) and the *arr stack has no route to the array at all (no SMB, no NFS, mini asleep). Two laws fall out for the prune pipeline: re-verify survivors by size rather than by the path a stale artifact recorded, and Plex extras rows naming a held path survive a second section pass.
